[Kit was genuinely perplexed by that retort. What sort of 'bullshit' was Vincent referring to?
He may have conned people in the past into digesting educational literature, but that didn't mean he thought of the written word or even what school had to offer as a punishment. On the contrary, he rather enjoyed the environment and, on occasion, even the company of his peers. He didn't keep many friends, and none of them were close, but the setting felt the most 'right' in a way that he couldn't explain. Probably, it had something to do with memories he hadn't yet unlocked.]
You're being stubborn for the sake of being stubborn.
[Kit shook his head. It was one of his companion's more endearing traits but, at the moment, it was a little sad. He couldn't imagine going through life not absorbing every piece of information that he could, particularly when it was free.
He'd lived that way for a time, but at the detention center he'd learned not to take some things for granted.]
You should always have a contingency plan. In the unfortunate event you cannot rely on your band, a proper education could help provide a secure future. More importantly...
[He smiled a little, the sort of smug and knowing smile that Vincent had probably come to loathe by now.]
