Something I will never understand... your character never uses personal pronouns in reference to their self.

And I don't mean gendered pronouns, just pronouns like "I" and "We". It seems none of the characters do.

Instead of: "I need to get lunch"

It's: "Need to get lunch."

-

"We need to get in there, and we need to do it fast"

"Need to get in there. Need to do it fast"

-

"I'm tryin' alright?"

"Tryin' alright?

-

"I like chocolate"

"Like chocolate"

It's even more grating when you add in the forced sounding "Gruff Guy" voice the male V uses. I don't know what kind of weird tough guy vibe they were going for but it's like nails on a chalkboard sometimes.
