It was her day off, and MC was terrified. From the moment she woke up the next morning, her phone was giving her a heart attack every time she got a notification. She was terrified of what Seven would have to say about this...
10 AM, new chatroom.
She held her breath as she tapped the notification.
707: I,,,,
707: Have some bad news.
MC bit her lip so hard it almost bled.
707: My pretty face is ruined :(
He sent a selfie into the chat of him making a pouty face, sporting a lovely shiner on his right eye and a very noticeable bruise on his jaw below it. He leaned his head on his palm, almost like he's trying to make more room for the bruises in the picture.
Yoosung: What happened?!
707: I was on a spy mission last night, and apparently I got attacked.
MC raised an eyebrow.
Apparently?
707: Ya
707: I barely remember anything past entering the building
She let out a shaky sigh of relief.
Aw... I hope you feel better soon!
Yoosung: Me, too!!
707: You both are too kind~
Yoosung: If I didn't have to go to school, I'd stay and talk more!
707: Bye
Have a fun day at school!
Yoosung: ... That sounds like something a mom would say
Yoosung: lol
Yoosung left, leaving just MC and Seven.
So, you really have no idea who did this to you?
707: Nope.
707: But that just means I have to do more hacker work to find out who it was;
Oh
707: Something wrong with that lol
No, I just
I just wish I could see you in person.
I'd fix you right up :)
707: Aw, I feel loved~
Is there anything saying we can't meet up?
Seven took a long time to respond.
707: This sounds like a conversation that we shouldn't have here
707: I'll call you.
Seven left, but not 30 seconds later did MCs phone start ringing.
She picked it up. "Hi~"
"Hey, MC." There was a pause, but she could tell he had something to say. "I think I know what you're trying to do."
MC had a bit of emotional whiplash going from his cheerful self to this side of him.
... Was he trying to let her know that he remembers her punching him?
"And just what am I doing?" She asked. If he agreed to meet up with her, she'd explain everything. She'd let him know exactly what happened that night. The phone just wasn't the right place to have that conversation.
"MC, you can't get involved with me." He stated bluntly. "You know where I work, but you don't know where I work. I'm too dangerous."
MC almost laughed.
Seven kept talking. "Hackers are like... Toxic waste. They leach into everything to cause problems, but benefit people who could possibly be the scum of the earth."
MC didn't know what to say, but she didn't have to. He kept talking.
"You can't be involved with someone like that... I know this from personal experience. All hackers are roaches. Especially me."
"All hackers are roaches." She repeated, trying to hide her offense.
"You got it." He said in a lighter tone. "So, let's not go any further than we are already."
"... Yeah."
"So... Uh, Oh! I learned that when you-"
"I have to go." She hit 'end call', then turned off her phone.
"Hackers are roaches, huh?" She muttered to herself. "Well, let's see just what a roach can do."

The bathroom was probably the only place that wasn't under surveillance. Of course, she didn't have any reason to believe that anywhere but the hallway had cameras, but if she knew one thing it was that you can never be too careful.
So, there she sat in the bathtub. Legs draped over to the side and hands typing furiously.
Seriously? All hackers are roaches? He's going to say that to her face? He doesn't know jack about her, much less what she does for a living. She was fuming. She was livid. There was practically steam flying out of her ears as she hacked.
It was a stupid situation, from an outside perspective. Girl sits in bathtub, mad as hell. That's what a newspaper would say. But she just had to push that aside and remind herself that she's had to do a lot of stupid stuff to get where she is now.
And Seven's done a lot of stupid stuff to get where she is now.

Romance707's job was always "too dangerous" for MC. You're always expected to put up with this as the player, but what if MC was also an agent? She's not obligated to put up with that when she is just as dangerous herself, right? You can find that out righ...
