I don't need to know how to play piano to know when one's out of tune, [ thanks for relaying that one, Vance. ]

I don't know, I'm just saying that between the two of us, one person put Skulduggery's fate in the hands of Nobunaga and the rest of those idiots and one of us. Didn't do that? Maybe never taking responsibility for anything in your life isn't working out so great for you?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

I'd leave the callbacks to the expert.

[a mild noise] You're really all remarkably ungrateful that you are still alive. I don't think you fully grasp how much easier the alternative would have been.

[saltwaterlungs]

What, killing all of us? Why didn't you? Was Friday too busy to do it for you?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[tonelessly] Oh, I'm sure Lord Vile would have been quite happy to pick up her slack.

[saltwaterlungs]

So why didn't you.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[he turns his head slowly to look at her.]

Because Skulduggery would have been miserable.

[saltwaterlungs]

And he wasn't miserable when you dragged him through the trial? Maybe you missed this in the thousands of years you haven't given a shit about anything, but when you care about someone, it's your job to keep them fucking safe. And you didn't.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[a pause. brow furrows.]

... I believe you stopped talking about me at some point, there.

[saltwaterlungs]

Okay sure- both of us failed him, now what? You got your dig in, now what? Make you feel any better about being a chickenshit coward who couldn't do one single fucking thing to keep his boyfriend safe? I'm not the one who controls who lives or dies here.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

I heartily apologize for being entirely unwilling to risk permanently killing the only person I love in order to spare the lives of some hideous little bastards. Mea culpa. Mea maxima culpa.

[saltwaterlungs]

So you chose to gamble instead, giving yourself the wonderful options of 'having to do it anyway' or 'watching him get fucked over by the rest of those bastards, knowing what will happen and how it will hurt him and choosing to do nothing about it'. Mea culpa, I totally didn't see how you're in the right here.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

... You do realize I wasn't going to do it if you all didn't vote for it. That if that had happened, I wouldn't have destroyed Vile. I would have let what was going to happen, happen.

[saltwaterlungs]

You were the one who said Vile's reunion tour would've made him miserable. I'm very aware that you don't do anything unless someone makes you.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

He would have gotten used to it. It's quite easy to do.

[saltwaterlungs]

And eventually he would stop being the person you fell in love with, if you did to him what you did to yourself. Does he know that you would've been happy watching Vile drive him nuts?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

I would have gotten used to it.

[saltwaterlungs]

Really? You couldn't bring yourself to kill him, but you'd just get used to seeing him like that?

[ A deep breath, while she tries to dismiss the image of him eating his own eyeballs had she kept the fucking contract. ]

I don't believe you.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

I've done it before.

[... frowns.]

I don't know what that means.

[saltwaterlungs]

Is that what happened to your mother?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[light scoff] How could I possibly know that? I was taken from whatever mother I had before she could even name me.

[saltwaterlungs]

Well apparently throwing shit out there sometimes makes you remember shit, so forgive me for throwing spaghetti at the wall, and someone told me you had mommy issues once.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

I'm sure Clarke was just projecting.

[saltwaterlungs]

You gave me back my mother's knife after I told you who it belonged to, it's not the dumbest guess I could've made.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

Should I have obliterated the sentimental object in front of your eyes or something. I'm getting mixed messages on what kind gestures are.

[saltwaterlungs]

Okay- next time you say something ominous clearly referring to something you've made yourself forget, I'm just going to shut the fuck up and not try and help you work out what the fuck you meant by it. [ She won't. ]
