...she was going to kill my parents. She was going to kill me- she- she had to have been the one to kill George!
But I still love her!
How messed up is that!

Except when you can't even manage actually doing anything to help anyone.
Then it's just... really foolish. Stupid, maybe.
[a beat and then, with Battler smile on,]
Not that I mind being stupid or foolish, it's just what it is.

Do you really think it has to be something big to be considered helping? Even if that was true and you never manage to be helpful, it's still thoughtful to care that much. Definitely still cute, too.
Even if it's not nearly as much as you would like though, you do help people. Even just acting like that - that's a big part of the reason you do it, right? It works, that joking around puts people at ease.

Hey yourself.

Very much so. I did have a meeting with Finch that went relatively well, though. Hopefully things will get better on that front.
It was like that for us too, for a while. Hopefull you'll stabilise eventually.

...Indeed. I noticed their profiles were gone.

Neither am I. Frankly, I've been trying to avoid thinking about it.
I don't even know what to say about them being gone...
That's true.
...I bet you keep thinking the same thing I do, that it was somehow our fault. Even though it obviously wasn't.

...It was. And it was a bad idea for me to help you go through with it, when that didn't even end up helping me win the game.
