Honestly, what else could it have been? It’s like I said. Nothing that I lost during that little restart really mattered to me except for you.

…Like I wouldn’t have discovered that I like being tied up anyway. What, our unconventional, bitter snark getting a little old for ya, baby?

“I’d be concerned if you mourned the loss of the other parts of those years.”

She shrugs.

“I must be mellowing out lately. Not that anything has changed about the future, I just do less brooding and more thinking.

Or maybe I’m just bored and being angry all the time isn’t as fun anymore.”

What, the whole tellin’ me you missed me thing?

No worries, you haven’t entirely ruined your image yet, baby ~ I’m not gonna give you any flack for it, anyway—I like hearing that kind of thing from you. What good would it be for me to make fun of your abnormal behavior if that ruins my chances of it ever happenin’ again?

The chance is already gone, I didn’t realise I would be the trigger of all things.

I had this lovely mental image planned of laying on the couch with you while I innocently weave a fake story about our relationship and leaving out all the incidents involving tying up and your awkward little enjoyment of it.

But, alas.

Mostly, yeah. Still a little fuzzy.

I’m reeeally good at playing pretend, though ~

No deal.

I said a lot of idiotic things to you and I was hoping I’d at least get the dignity of you not knowing it was abnormal behavior.

Now you know and everything’s ruined.

Ugh, so you remember now?

And here I was all ready to pretend like we were a normal couple for once.

Looks like someone’s rattled.

Yo, you said there’s some voodoo that happens and you don’t have the faintest what it is.

A risk of zero out of three ain’t worth a blind shot.

[Gods I’d slap sense into her if only it worked that way. Gotta keep calm for the sake of everyone over there. Talking is all I can do. All I can do. Long breaths.]

It’s not a blind shot. I’ve watched enough variations of myself go through the same process and come out fine to know this is how it has to be.

Or maybe I’m just being stubborn because this is bothering you so much.

“Yours, your cat’s, your f… …the… other Sissel” - how does it work in her world? If the cat is called the same, there has to be the same origin, surely? Probably, enough to give it a shot, feels right -“…are three of them.”

Four, then.

Two out of three isn’t bad, right? I’m sure a cat can cope.

Because you can do better

‘cause you know in advance.

How is this a big logical leap past kindergarten.

There’s seven lives on the line, lady, it’s called decency.

Seven lives that I don’t care about.

That is absurd.

A solution is a solution. My world got its happy ending, thanks to your cat. I don’t give a damn. 

Get out of my chair. And you wonder why I don’t speak to you.

But your world lead to him being undead too, yes? What’s so wrong with mine taking the same course?

We were getting along perfectly fine until you started trying to play the hero. What is it with your kind and trying to save every programmer that comes your way?

Smart girl. Deplorable, but smart. One’s a murderer and the other saves lives, guess which one holds more weight? First comes my partner’s life, then Alma’s, then Lynne’s, then the cat’s, then mine, and somewhere down the line there’s yours.

Someone’s got to care for that cat if you won’t, might as well be me, got a favor to repay there.

Knowledge is power. There’s got to be an everybody wins solution.

Give me one week from the moment these ropes come off.

No.

Even if there is an everybody wins solution, what makes you think I want to hear it from you? Let alone play along with it just to make you happy.

Maybe I’ll put Sissel on the line simply to twist your nerves a little more, seeing as it bothers you so much.
