"Ah, you were one of those types." His brows rise.
The device's next sin: suicidal ideation. Turning to read that, he frowns before leaning back in his chair with a frustrated noise. At least one of his earlier responses should make this explanation quick. "One of the only reasons I haven't offed myself is because I decided to keep living to spite the parents who wished they'd never had me."
It's more complicated than that. The effect it might have on them could have wound up the opposite of what he'd want. And while he does largely feel like no one would miss him if he were to die, a tiny voice in the back of his head suspected that his younger brother, who worried about him during their separation, would. Noiz just liked to ignore the existence of that matter and only ever fleetingly allowed himself to even think about it.
In any case, he doesn't see much merit in going into more detail than needed to satisfy the damn device.
