?: “You ever wonder what we’re guarding?” E: “You ever mind your own business? Go clock out.” L: “Erik!” E: “Sorry, no entry allowed.” L: “Idiot.” E: “It’s 4am, what the hell are you doing out.” ?: (Bye, have a good night.) L: “’What the hell-’ I’m here to see you, dummy!” E: “I dunno, maybe you’d taken a sudden interest in architecture?” L: “Be serious.” E: “It’s cold as shit out here, go home.” L: “Hang on, I’m not going anywhere! Not til you listen to what I have to say.” E: “Ok, I’m listening.” L: “I, um... Erik...” E: “For the love of god, do you want a jacket? You’re shivering.” L: “No! Listen to me!” E: “Lisem, I’m not mad at you anymore.” L: “You’re not?” E: “No.” ... “I think... I’m mad at myself now. I wanted you to be a good person, but... In the end, you’re just the person I thought you’d be. I mean, you, well, you know... And you just go into work and pretend like nothing happened.” ... “You are a military leader, so I understand why. You sent hundreds of thousands of people to their deaths every day, back in the revolution, and the 5-year war, but... To see that you don’t even care...” L: “...I see.” E: “I’m sorry, Lisem.” L: “So that’s what you think of me.” ... “Erik, I do care! of course I care!” E: “Do you?” L: “Absolutely! You think I would do something like this on purpose?!” E: “Well-” L: “Let me ask you a serious question. If anything ever came to murder, do you think I’d be quite so sloppy?” E: “I mean-” L: “I have never been known to do things carelessly, but you keep showing up and throwing wrenches in my plans, it’s like I cant THINK with you around!! Of course it was an accident! Just like everything else I’ve been doing lately!!” E: “You were planning to murder her?!” L: “NO!! That’s the point!! I saw you in danger and I reacted- I feel awful!” E: “Really?!” L: “Yes! That’s the truth!” ... “Erik, I- I- I really screwed up. I’m sorry.” ... “I don’t- I- What can I do to make this right?” ... “Wh-” E: “Lisem...” L: “Hey!!” E: “That’s exactly what I needed to hear!” L: “Really?” E: “Uh-huh. That’s all the proof I need to call you a good person.” L: “Erik, you know I’m not-” E: “I don’t care. Let’s just fix this mess.”
