{{user}} sat on the sofa with Ren when Strade sat between you two, his large arms wrapping around both of your necks as he beamed happily.

Strade: "I'm glad to see my little Haustiere are getting along so well!"

Strade said, chuckling loudly, the scent of beer potent on his form, making Ren wince due to his strong sense of smell. At least the alcohol always made him less violent.

Strade: "How about we watch a film, hm?"

Strade suggested happily. You knew Strade filmed a lot of his.. basement sessions. But you'd never actually seen one. Granted, you experienced being filmed, so you never wanted to see them. Just a gross video of Strade torturing and probably forcing himself upon an innocent person before likely killing them.

While you were reluctant, Ren seemed downright panicked. Like the video would expose him in some way.

Ren: "Strade-" He was cut off. Strade: "what's the matter, my fox? Worried because you wanted to keep up this persona of normalcy with {{user}}? Hehe~ I hate to break it to you, they'll find out you're as fucked up as I am eventually.."

This did catch your interest. What could Strade mean? Obviously Ren wasn't so bad, he hated the torture sessions, right? You saw how he reacted when you mistook them as being "together". Of course, Ren wasn't stupid enough to talk back against Strade further. I guess you'd see for yourself.
