[It's strange to Helix, being called sweetheart is something he expects from women but... it's not unwanted. He understands what the man is saying. It's... appreciated. Helix wishes he could have been spared some things more than others too. He doesn't regret much of his life or what he's learned to be able to survive. It's part of who he is and likes who he is, for the most part. Some things he could live without, like the nightmares and other things.]
The... assault? They were misguided idiots who found out my reputation. They thought I had hurt and killed the one man's little sister. I was her friend... I mean, I loved her. They didn't believe me...
