Well. I suppose that comes of the fact that none of us can really call ourselves normal here, can we? We all crawled out of the ocean. All wiggled our little tentacles.

It's easier to understand when you're like someone. When you can't make them different from you.

[A soft huff escapes him, something close to a laugh.]

I suppose that is true. I would have accepted their distrust and hesitation regardless... yet there are many like me here.

I had hoped to demonstrate my willpower. Now I am less certain, even if I am not entirely at fault.

You shouldn't have to be afraid. You shouldn't have to live...being afraid of what might happen.

[With her arms folded over her knees, and her gaze somewhere in the middle distance, she's probably not just talking about Bigby anymore. Commiseration.]

That doesn't mean it isn't still the case, I know. But it's wrong, just the same.

Nor should you have had to endure what you have been through. Regrettably, our lives have taken turns we wish were different. ...But we will endure. Won't we?

For everything that has occurred, I do not regret being in Trench. It is still a brighter place than where I'd been before. That much is true for me, anyway.
