Send me š„ and my muse will have to confess insecurity, fear or dark thought no matter how much they want to hide it
Well, heās on a roll. Why stop now.
āAnd you know what? If Alister had made one moreĀ āYour father would have ABC, or would never have XYZā quip, just one more, I would have killed him myself right then and there, lemme tell you that! I mean -- Zoniās sake, he played me like a goddamn harp, he knew -- he knew thatās all he had to say, and for a while there I would seriously have done anything if he found any way to even remotely connect it to my father for half a second! Iāve --Ā ā
He growls, yanking that godforsaken watch out of his pocket and slapping it down against the table at armās length, as if itās the cause of all this.Ā
āIāve never had anyone get into my head like that! I trusted him, I -- I trusted him! That arrogant, selfish bastard! Iām glad I caught on when I did, but you know what? By that time I was so sick and tired of hearing aboutĀ āyour father thisā andĀ āyour father thatā, and you know what?! In a perfect world if I had a free pass to wind back the Clock Iād look him in the face and Iād probably bash it in and tell him how DARE you use this against me?! You know -- you KNOW!!! You know what itās like to be the only one left! You know what saying stuff like that does to people like us!ā
Heās shouting, now, shouting at the thankfully empty room, tears at full blast.Ā āAnd you turned that against me and you used me, and you know what?! Stopping the meltdown was the least you could do at that point! Thank the fucking Zoni you still found a way to make yourself the goddamn hero in the end! I bet thatās what my father would have done too, wasnāt it?! Fuck you, General Azimuth!Ā FUCK! YOU!ā
He drops back in his chair, sobbing quietly and hanging on to the pocket watch.
