all my troubles on a burning pile
Rigby shrugged at her comment about names, "Street rat works for me," he droned, sarcastic and spiteful. He might've feared her before, but now there was a bit of confidence to him. He'd done her dirty and gotten away with only a scratch and an apple, if he read her right he had little to fear. Perhaps a hasty assumption, but one he was willing to make for now. He shook off her threat, taking another crunch into the fruit's red skin.
But then she does something that does light him afire again. She tries to analyze, inquire into his own life. His brows narrowed, clearly peeved at her judgments, he shot her a dangerous look, full of the fire he'd shown before that brooded quietly. He let her finish, practically bristling by the end. He considered her for a second then, a little voice in the back of his mind asking how hard it would be to shove this apple down her throat and run.
In the end, he settles to taking another bite and offering a smirk. "Spot on, princess, spot on," and he says so because he's fine to commit to false narrative as long as it doesn't expose the truth. He wouldn't give her a cent of that, not a thread to follow. His past and his reasons were his alone, and he owed her nothing.
