Lost Clause

It's not like Diamont has a choice.  Still held by the mechanical arm, she was frog-marched  to Alice's room against her will.  Perhaps a part of her was glad that she wasn't going through the humiliation that Lilith was going through.  "Secretary, is it? What exactly does 'not meeting quota' entail?"

"Ah! Oh!"  One may think that such thick padding would absorb a lot of the force, but it seems that Lilith was starting to feel those hits like a princess on a pea.  The thing is, even if she braced herself for the next hit, the next item had a different feel so she couldn't make a "defense" that could block all five items.   "Eh! Ah!"
