Probably not a big surprise at this point, but I'm kinda used to washing blood outta my clothes. [ small laugh ] But if you've got tips, I'm not gonna turn 'em down.
[ and then, a shake of his head ] You did most of the heavy lifting, I was just there as insurance in case anyone tried to be a little shit.
I've got plenty. [but - no, it's not a surprise, and her lips twitch a little. not quite a smile, but it's something.]
... I understand, really. I hate to be scrutinized like that as well. But I was not going to allow Viktor's killer to go free. [...] You said that he reminded you of someone.
...yeah. The man I considered my brother was really sick when he was born. He pulled through the worst of it as a baby, but the condition meant he was never able to walk. For a lot of my teen years up until I was in my mid-20s, I was basically his carer—I acted as his legs.
From the very first day we were here, before Viktor was able to get his crutch back with the rest of our stuff... seeing him kinda reminded me of all the time I spent with the young master way back when, heh.
People don't do that. [sorry, she has such a terrible view of humanity,] There are so few people that hold out their hands with no expectation in return.
Haha... I never had a family growing up. I was raised on the kindness of other people. If I don't pay it forward, then what kinda message would that send to the people who raised me when they didn't have to?
