[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. ]

[sictransitgloriamundi]

Just because you think people insulting you invites growth doesn't mean that's how it works. For anyone.

[saltwaterlungs]

Are you a djinn or a fortune cookie.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

If my fortune cookie read "you have maladaptive social behaviors stemming from trauma," I would be slightly more concerned than I would be if it read "help, I'm trapped in a fortune cookie factory."

[saltwaterlungs]

Wow, the dead girl has trauma, you're really digging into the hidden depths of my psyche here. I think you're meant to look at my daddy issues next, Dr Freud.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

I do wonder why you're so set on helping the dead here when you know he happens to be one of them.

[saltwaterlungs]

Which 'he'. You've got a collection of people who fit that description in the nothing.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

No, not really. Only one... God, what stupid name did that man have. Aviary? Something close.

[saltwaterlungs]

[ That's bait. That's obviously bait. She feels the hairs on the back of her neck prickle anyway. ]

What about him.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

If you owe dead strangers nothing, you owe that one even less.

[saltwaterlungs]

What was it like, when Skulduggery was out? For those three days, when you didn't know if he was coming back?

[sictransitgloriamundi]

Much like it was for you, except I was actually aware the god I was praying to wasn't listening.

[saltwaterlungs]

You'd make such a good Catholic. You're already self righteous and think God finds you interesting enough to hate you.

If you know grief, even briefly, then you know why I serve the dead.

[sictransitgloriamundi]

Out of an impotent desperation to make reality give back what cannot be returned?

[saltwaterlungs]

You would've torn this reality apart if he hadn't come back and we both know it. Don't act like you're better than me because you care about less shit. Nothing that lives, lives alone or for itself.

tw: suicidal ideation

[sictransitgloriamundi]

[a faint smile]

If he hadn't come back, I would have ended all of this the only way it ever could end without him. [pause] It is rather the same result, though, isn't it. For the rest of you.

tw continues

[saltwaterlungs]

[ For all the similarities that both had been loosely tossing at each other over the course of this argument, this is the first one that's really stuck in her. She thinks to the Captain refusing to kill her, over and over, and there's... something that sticks in her throat about it. Darcy crushes the impulse to touch at the scar that remains over her heart. ]

He wouldn't have wanted you to. He believes in happy endings. It's annoying.
