There's gonna be some conflicts... (canon is free)

[imayhaveagirlyname]

Let's get one thing straight--you're an asshole. 「He pauses, the scowl on his face deepening.」 You're laughing. You're laughing. You're laughing.

This is a fucking lame name. 「And when the mun breaks it to the poor guy...」

What? What do you mean you can't change it? Change it now!

[Medusa stares for several minutes.]

...this begs a couple questions:

1. What is your name?
2. It's only a name...why does it bother you so?

[imayhaveagirlyname]

「Rin's eyebrows twitch before rising」

Because it is a name I'm fucking stuck with! And the asshole had to go and rub that in--!

[vectorsnake]

I'm named for a monster with snakes for hair who was so ugly she turned men to stone just by looking at them.

But you don't hear me griping about it.

A name is a word, and nothing more. What you come to associate with that name is what matters.

For example, people can see me, and the power I exude and the fear I invoke and associate 'Medusa' with 'the snake witch who could kill you one a whim.'

...or, people could see you and hear your whining about your name and associate the name 'Rin' with 'that whiny redheaded bitch.'

[Medusa is all about rubbing shit in...]

[imayhaveagirlyname]

「A man's woe」

Your name is associated with your own gender. I have a fucking girl's name. I don't think someone like you could understand that.

[vectorsnake]

If anything that's a golden opportunity for you!

People see that you have a girly name, so they assume that you're weak - it gives you the chance to prove your strength and superiority and deliver total humiliation to those who were foolish enough to underestimate you!

[imayhaveagirlyname]

「what golden opportunity--? More like Nagisa's opportunity to tease him some more」

Been there, done that. 「Nope, Rinrin, you're not getting an apology from me.」 Stupid asshole.

[vectorsnake]

Continue to do it and make their humiliation run deeper then.

Simple as that.

[imayhaveagirlyname]

「That's simple.」 I'll just keep on swimming, then.

had to

[showmeyourgirlyname]

But it's true! You shouldn't be ashamed of it, Rin-chan.

[imayhaveagirlyname]

Shut up, Nagisa--It's not my fault I was named the way I was--!

「Super super annoyed is more like it..」

[deyseemetrollin]

What be ya name? I be Uziriaa, but most call me Uzi... dat make joo feel betta?

[imayhaveagirlyname]

No. You're not the one stuck with the stupid username.

「He's still pissed.」

[sharkmaid]

What is it with giving us all the stupid names anyway?

[imayhaveagirlyname]

「Well maybe he feels a little better knowing that he's not the only one--」

I swear they're messed up in their heads.

[sharkmaid]

Hmph. I don't know why they would even think they could get away with something like this without consequence.

[imayhaveagirlyname]

Exactly.

They really need to be taught a lesson or something.

[sharkmaid]

[Is that the sound of cracking knuckles?

... Yeah. Yeah, that's the sound of cracking knuckles.]

Not like there's much we can do about it. Tch. What a pain in the ass.

... I guess it's stupid things like this which make you sort of appreciate a girly name, though.

[imayhaveagirlyname]

「 He's kind of laughing now. 」

Are you kidding me? All I want to do is throw the loser in a swimming pool. More convenient.

But you're right. Not much we can do. 「 Although the girly bit might be a little frustrating. Vigorous poking and teasing, more or less. subtle, subtle. 」

[sharkmaid]

[He scoffs at that.]

Throw 'em in a swimming pool, huh. I like that idea.

[Though considering his mundane can't exactly swim well, that would be extremely rude, Rin.]

So. Are you being forced into going to some game too?

[imayhaveagirlyname]

Yeah, exactly. This stupid mun of mine can't swim, golden opportunity for her to suffer. 「 HEY! 」

「 But on the topic of games, he grimaces and pretty much looks like he wants to kill someone. 」

Stupid fucking asshole wants to put me in a sex game. What the fuck.

[sharkmaid]

[Rin's are so harsh.]

Tch. You too?

[He grits those sharp teeth of his with a growl.]

Apparently my application's been turned in so now all that's left to do is wait. Like hell am I gonna let myself be dragged into a place like that!

[imayhaveagirlyname]

These stupid assholes are just plain rude.

「 Could say the same for you a few episodes ago, Rinrin. 」

We've got absolutely no say in this, do we?

「 Drowning didn't seems like such a half bad idea now. 」

[sharkmaid]

Not at all.

[He sounds awfully bitter and angry about that. Wonder why.]

Ngh, I don't have time to be messing around with this.

[Come on; he had a relay to kick Haru's ass in. ... Because that's totally the reason why he wanted to swim in the relay. Totally.]

[imayhaveagirlyname]

「 Well, that brings the light side of things. 」

Why can't they just leave us alone?

「 Either way, he's gonna get teased. 」

[sharkmaid]

Because they're idiots.

[And you are awfully easy to make fun of, Rin, darling. He grits his teeth and clenches his hands into fists.]

Has yours made you do anything weird yet?

[imayhaveagirlyname]

「 Yup, you got that one right. However, he visibly relaxes as a sigh escapes him. 」

Not yet. Pulled me out and is considering a more mellow game for me.

「 Better than a sex game, that's for sure. 」

[sharkmaid]

Mellow could mean anything.

Just hope and pray it doesn't end up being a place filled with zombies or something. Not like we couldn't survive pretty well in that, but still.

[imayhaveagirlyname]

It's a nuclear-type family setting. 「 He's a little miffed about it. 」Seems rigid. 「 But then again, his family is like that, before his dad died. 」

Hopefully not. But I'm not getting good feeling about the place. Seems too peaceful. 「 Eerily peaceful at that. 」

[sharknado_swimmer]

I'm starting to think mine isn't so bad now.

[imayhaveagirlyname]

「 Oh, god, another one? They just can't wait to jump on the girly names, can they. 」

You got off lucky.
