fine. then I will have lost you as well as Joe.
How often my heart has been broken, I should start to believe I have one!

[aglonby]

havent things been better since kavinsky left you

[jondrette]

no.
because now I am alone.
again.

[aglonby]

you dont need to be fucking someone to not be alone

[jondrette]

I know.
I am often alone even when I am fucking someone.
I suppose it is how I am meant to be.

[aglonby]

i dont think thats it. i know thats not it.

[jondrette]

I am starting to believe it is true.
Perhaps I'll leave, go back only to finish my last breath.

[aglonby]

dont say that.

[jondrette]

Too late, for I've already said them.

[aglonby]

you have to stay. once youre done you get everything youve wanted.

[jondrette]

and that, too, I imagine will be torn from me.
It is comforting, to know I could choose to die again and to return without fulfilling my duty.
I will stay for now.

[aglonby]

why would it be? these city reps dont lie.

[jondrette]

Because I will try so hard for him. And I will lose him, for everyone and everything I try to do becomes wrong.

[aglonby]

ask them to fix that. ask them to make sure it all goes well forever and you die of old age in your favorite place or something.

[jondrette]

You are a smart man, Henry

[aglonby]

nah youve got these resources and youve got to use them thats all. you can make things go the way you want to its an opportunity

[jondrette]

I'm not used to resources.

[aglonby]

you have them now. take advantage.

[jondrette]

I shall be like my father, then. I have always been his daughter, perhaps I must think like him again.

[aglonby]

remind me what your fathers like before i approve of this or not.

[jondrette]

he was once kind and loving, but turned cold and cruel. last I spoke to him he wanted me dead.

[aglonby]

then please dont emulate your father. just.

éponine. youre a good person. even if youve done shitty things in the past.

[jondrette]

no, henry. i am not a good person. eudio has not changed that about me.

[aglonby]

ok sorry for the hallmark greeting here but. eudio cant change that about you but you can change that about you.

[jondrette]

how would i even begin?
