Drains her fifth and spits out a greek translation.
She slurs: "How much more bullshit you got left?
Cuz you been feeding me this crap about
free speech and thought-police
like I'm supposed to sit and swoon".
It takes three more rounds till the subject changes
and in that time she lays it down:
"Fuck Larry Flynt and any campaign to silence women
standing up and fighting back. And I fuck to cum,
so don't lay your repressed' shit on me. I fuck to cum.
Fuck your blessed Trinity. I fuck to cum."
"I'm so sick of needle-dicks and (selective) first-amendments.
I can out-think, out-drink, out-fuck-you-all
so fuck your bullshit femi-nazi crap,
no needle-dick's gonna silence me. I fuck to cum."

Character Background
Mortal Life
Oda was one of those kids you would shake your head when you saw. With a drug abusing father and a mother struggling too much to have time to parent her, she was left to her own devices at an early age. Growing up in a particularily bad part of Detroit it was hard to avoid the casual gang violence, drug trafficking and prostitution, which was everyday stuff in her neighbourhood. Shortly after grade school, Oda lost interest in the educational system. She never quite could focus on what she was taught anyway. Her now single mother didn't have the time or energy to deal with her wayward child, her half-assed attempts at keeping her in line more often than not resulting in a quick confrontation and an equally quick appology. Oda fast learned what she didn't want to become - namely her loser parents, so she stayed away from her and home, freeloading drugs together with her partners in crime.
By the end of the 90s Oda was already dealing. She spent her spare time at concerts working out the aggression built up from childhood. Having moved out and away from her mother and completely shut out her pathetic father, she was finally doing good - as well as could be expected anyway. Oda first got into computer related crime when she met Zack, a friend of a friend among all the revolution/opposition spouting people involved with the punk movement. He taught her about phone phreaking and computers. Finally, someone with the balls to master his environment rather than bitch about it. Oda learned quickly. Both because she had a dedicated teacher(and boyfriend after a short while), and because of the pragmatic value of the knowledge. About a year and a half later after meeting Zack, the cops started asking around for Oda, forcing her to go underground, but it was already too late. She had been ratted out. They knew exactly where to look for her. A few bags of meth, a block of hash was put on her record, as well as possession with intent to sell.
2004, two and a half years later, Oda was released on probation. Good behaviour, they said. And they were right, excepting of course the inside-dealing, illegal phone calls and the occasional fights with inmates. Back out on the streets, she found her former friends had turned junkies and Zack wasn't around anymore. He was the only one Oda cared to find, but all she would hear was how nobody really knew him or knew what became of him. Fuck him, then. She could continue without his tutoring. No legal job was worth the humiliating hassle, not to mention having to dress up like an ordinary girl to please whatever narrowminded jerk-off boss she'd work for. And with a record, the cops would probably be watching her. Until she could take care of business properly, she had to keep that shit job, but all the while working with what Zack had sown.
Her social ties to her home city were all but completely severed, and it was a painful vacuum to live in, between her wasted ex-friends, lack of real friends, and bad memories. She talked to her supplier about the possibilities of moving to another city and connecting with a supplier there. He gave her a contact in Nashville.
In Nashville, she finds it a little easier to cope with trying to resume life, and she does good until she's forcibly ghouled by a 12 year old Malkovian girl. This eventually stunted all of Odas will to make it work as she realises what she's gotten herself into. She slips deeper into depression until the point she breaks down in front of a woman she barely knew at that point: her sire to be, Luca Feuerganger. Oda felt she finally found someone she could rely on, even though she found it difficult to admit her own emotions.
Embrace
Even with her newfound love, Oda couldn't get out of her depressed state of mind. One night she approaches Luca out of despair and asks if she would shoot Oda. Instead Luca talks sense to her and decides to embrace her.
Post Embrace
A whole new world opens up for Oda, and things turn around for her. She is very excited with her newfound powers. Her old life doesn't matter much to her, and she makes some new aquaintances in the Nashville kindred circuit. She is also introduced, although involuntarily, to other possible supernatural creatures through conflicts amongst the residents of Nashville. She somewhat lets go of her old criminal connections because she has less need for money staying with Luca while she's being taught about the new ways. In one critical respect, Sire and Childe differed. While Luca was a Kindred of occult inclining, Oda did not understand this and took little part in the rituals of the Crone. As such Oda remained unaligned, in spite of her sire. Oda, in spite of being in love with Luca, found it difficult to relate to Luca's polygamous nature, which in turn made Oda withdraw in order to not get hurt. After a few months in Nashville, with Oda finally getting settled and used to her new self, many of the kindred leave, which makes Oda once again sense the loneliness she first encountered when she came out of jail. Tension grew between Sire and Childe, with one restless Oda wanting to leave Nashville, and one settled Sire wanting to keep her there. Months go by with Oda struggling to maintain her self-imposed ideal of strength. Finally, Luca recognises Odas need for a change of scenery, and she allows her to go to Tokyo, under the pretense of checking out the political climate for Luca and see if it would be worthwhile moving there. Oda begins preparations at once, studying ardently to learn as much Japanese as possible before she goes. She is very excited to go abroad for the first time in her life, and doubly so because of her Japanese heritage.
