I am a bit suicidal, but I haven't contemplated anything in months. While I hate people, I have never thought about killing someone. And actually, because I'm detached from my emotions, I'm fairly logical and my grades are the highest they've ever been, of course this could also stem from my inferio...

For the past several months, many of the people who encounter me have been describing me as emotionless. I have noticed that I don't feel love, happiness, and I don't care about anyone or anything.
