[ It sure felt like it to Susie, considering there’s nothing she can do about it now. Salt to a wound that’s much too deep for her to ever heal from now. ]
And yet you never said a word. That’s how you were dense.
So, yeah, it’s between you and the Legion now. I’m gonna pick them every time. If I have to murder you a thousand times to protect them from the Entity’s torture, then I’m gonna kill you a hundred thousand times just to make sure it works. They’re all I got now. Nothing else matters. They’re all I’ve ever had.
[ Susie kind of hates that Jeff isn’t being more disagreeable with her.

It doesn’t mean she’s letting go of her grudge, but it does take a lot of wind out of her sails. Makes it more difficult to be mean when she knows she’s being unfair and irrational.

Wouldn't ask you to choose between us. Who the hell am I? Just some old guy you used to know.
But I appreciate the conversation. You get why it's extra weird being stabbed over and over by a bunch of ghosts from the past, yeah?
forgot I wanted to cont this thread but I KNOW IT’S OLD so nws if you consider it dropped!

And she really hates that. ]
