I've been here more than two years. I really should know better than to eat something like that especially without checking the network first.

It's a little overwhelming to see and feel other people's memories that way. And very...invasive. So, I'm sorry for that.

I suppose it's a little late to say so, but be careful around the candy hearts.

Oh, and, with Lenalee gone now it's only my dog, Tumbles, and myself in this apartment. I don't think I like living alone very much. I have two bedrooms if anyone else is interested.

[Private to Will Herondale]
I saw something of yours. It felt wrong to let it go unmentioned.

[Private to Justin]
Justin? I think I...saw something of yours.

As far as I know there was no way to turn it off again. He tried changing the command. It didn't work.

[Private]

[othersdie]

Still...

I'm glad you're alive here.

[Private]

[deadly_legacy]

[She smiles softly.] So am I.

Ah... I took the conversation away, didn't I?

[Private]

[othersdie]

There wasn't much of a conversation to take away. It's fine.

[Private]

[deadly_legacy]

How much did you see, Justin? [Worried he might have seen how she got the mortal wound.]

[Private]

[othersdie]

More than I would have wanted.

Euphie? How did it happen?

[Private]

[deadly_legacy]

I told you about the person who accidentally gave me the command to kill the Japanese. [She hesitates.] When he caught up to me...after the massacre was already well under way, he shot me so that I'd stop.

[Private]

[othersdie]

But if he gave you the command, wasn't he as guilty as you were? Maybe more so?

[Private]

[deadly_legacy]

...It's not what either of us wanted. Blame doesn't bring them back. [She doesn't exactly blame herself, but the guilt doesn't go away so easily.]

[Private]

[othersdie]

No, but justice would... [would not actually do anything Justin would like it to do in this situation.] I'm sorry.

[Private]

[deadly_legacy]

It was a long time ago. I've already lived here over two years. And I never held it against that person. [Her brother whom she loves and who she won't reveal.]

[Private]

[othersdie]

Never? How can you--how did you forgive the person who killed you?

[Private]

[deadly_legacy]

I think it takes more work to hang on to anger than to let it go. But especially in this case...I don't think I could have blamed him even if he'd killed me out of anger.

[Private]

[othersdie]

[There's an idea. Justin will have to ponder that.]

I don't understand how you manage to be such a good person.

[Private]

[deadly_legacy]

I'm not sure I deserve your praise, Justin.

[Private]

[othersdie]

I'm not sure how you could justify not deserving it.

[Private]

[deadly_legacy]

I'm just a normal person I think. I'm not especially good.

[Private]

[othersdie]

You're better than the normal people I've met. Maybe I haven't met that many normal people, but that still must count for something.

[Private]

[deadly_legacy]

[She smiles softly.] You're sweet, Justin. And I think you need to meet more nice people.
