[At this question, there's frustration, guilt, and sorrow writ all over Toby's face. Obviously, he's taken from others; that much goes without saying. If he doesn't tell Edgeworth now, someone else probably will. Would it be either Sasha or Laurie? Kanaya seems the most likely to do so since she did sic Sabriel on him. Not to mention that the fledglings are in her care, and she'd even been accused of raising an undead army back in July.]
...When I first arrived, I did as I would have in my world because I didn't know any better. I fed from a native. And... I would have killed him so that he wouldn't have changed, if only Ms Maryam hadn't stopped me. He was the first I had ever sired, and I know little of taking care of my own. [Because Ivar had abandoned him, but that isn't relevant to the question, now is it?
Here, Toby anxiously swallows. Should he bring up Abduxel, or not? It seems like a bad idea, really. However, Edgeworth knows what sorts of questions to ask, he'd been a lawyer in his own world.]
After him, I held off to the point of starving and sickness before feeding once a week, thereby siring three more natives in roughly the first month. Only after the fourth did I start regularly feeding on Dorian.
[He feels a complete wreck, overwhelmed by guilt, anger, and frustration—perhaps he should come out with everything at once? Would that not be easier than waiting for Edgeworth to judge him? But he'd just as quickly judged himself before Laurie and Sasha, to what end? It's always the same—he'll be cast away in the end.
Even with these thoughts, he ultimately decides not to offer more information than is asked of him. Perhaps things will be different; then again, he may be expecting it from the wrong person. Might as well find out.]
