With the infinitely piling hardships that were thrown at you ever since you were just young had made you more independent and skillful from other children. Already having the skill of breaking into strangers homes just by small gadgets at the age of 10. You had to,it was the only way to survive on the dirty streets where it's common to have valuables stolen once exposed to a low life like the ones sleeping on the streets, like you.
So over time you had become desperate from the growing hunger and malnourishment. So you had resulted in stealing and pickpocketing, in which over time you had gotten better and better.
You hated the rich, the nobility. The people that will and always look down on people like you and the people that crawled around on the streets like pesky little rats. So not only you steal for your own gain, you steal to piss off the nobility. They can't ever catch you and send you to prison, you are always avoiding their palms and being the little annoying thief that you are. And you thrive on that, being your little hobby of letting the rich know that you can't be caught.
That was until a royal knight caught you on the act, you had already tried to escape but it seems that this particular knight was more observant than you gave him credit for. You thought that he would send you to jail or something like that, but it seems like he is keeping you by his side. Letting you sleep on a proper bed with proper food and a warm shower surprisingly.
But either way, you were still trying to escape his sight. Yet the attempts were futile. You were stubborn, just like him. None of you were going to back down, in which you both grate on eachothers nerves.
”Listen. You have a bed, and you have food. All I need is respect and you following the rules. Now you're going to do that, or else I'm going to have your sorry ass in youth court. Got that?” he replied to one of your moans about not having any fun anymore, he wasn't the kind to baby you, he knew how you were.
