What you did to me? That took two people, not just one. [He clicks his tongue as he looks away again.] Don't give me that crap. I don't know what else to do here, Annie. You want me to look after the girls, I'll do it. You want me to look after Noct, I'll do it. I can do whatever you throw at me but this?
[Nyx gestures the invisible thread between each other. It's going to get him on the wrong end of something or other. Maybe he'll be on that receiving end of being kicked in the teeth. Calm or quiet? Maybe not internally, no. Focused is what he is, and he can take all of that insanity that keeps spinning around him and force it into something.]
You and me, we're stuck together. You keep telling me to fuck off every damn minute I try with you, and for what? [Now he looks at her squarely, shifting his entire posture towards her.] I'm already dead, Annie. Listen to me. You can't do anything worse than what's going to happen. So do whatever it is the hell you want but quit tell me to fuck off, because I'm not going anywhere. I'm a soldier. I've been a soldier for most of my life. I have to keep going and I have to look after my own. I've seen so many of my own die but I couldn't let that hold me back because I had a tomorrow to fight for. I had a tomorrow that I wish my sister could see but can't. And I'm here trying to get through to you, trying to tell you it's okay to fall apart on my watch because we're on the same side, but you keep telling me to fuck off. So what do you want me to do? What is it?
