Deep in your soul, you feel like you want to pull your fangs out by the root, but instead you let out a loud sigh. You're one of the only people you know that has fangs, and it weighs heavily on your soul.

Hints

Imagine all of the other people staring and pointing, the kids making fun of you, no one seeing you as equal. And just... sigh. Deep down, you want to get rid of your fangs, but you can't do it.
