Is there any breakfast left? I think there's some universal constant written into every universe that says hospital food must be terrible.
Of course. I'll bring you some.
Thank you, meimei. I'd come down, but I don't feel like facing those stairs twice this morning.
Forgive me if I don't have the patience for guessing games today, Elena.
I know you weren't yourself but ...
Are you angry at me for shooting your boyfriend? Because when it comes down to it, this was mostly his fault.
...How was it his fault?
He could have let me leave. In which case I would have returned in a few days once this mess had worn off, and neither of us would have ended up getting shot.
And if something had happened to you during that time? Do you....
Never mind.
Never mind.
Yes, because the small possibility that something /might/ have happened offworld justifies electrocuting me and shattering my right knee cap, and trying to do the same for the left.
Before or /after/ you shot him?
...
He made the point that he would use force to stop me before I did anything.

If you forced him to do it?
Honestly...
Honestly...
I thought he was going to /kill me/, Elena. You know how the company used to deal with traitors.
And I know he wouldn't go through with it.
Do you really think I don't know what happened with Veld?

If you're going to spend the next week or two glaring at me over this, I'm going to ask Sheska if I can stay with her. At least there isn't a set of stairs to get to the kitchen there.

So you're going to run away because someone has the temerity to question your actions? I thought you had more self respect than that, honestly.
You really /have/ changed a lot and I'm not sure it's for the better.

Running away? Endeavoring to avoid a long, pointless argument is 'running away' now? If I could bring back the other me so you could interrogate him, I would, although I'm not sure how much you'd like that, honestly.
You don't know me as well as you think, Elena.
You don't know me as well as you think, Elena.
Obviously not.
Everyone else does apparently.
Everyone else does apparently.
Perhaps because they've put the effort in.
You know what Tseng....
I'm done with this.
Completely.
I'm done with this.
Completely.
Tseng had managed to get himself propped up in bed, laptop resting on top of his legs. Even with Aeris's skills, his knee was starting to ache badly again. He considered taking some more painkillers, but after the last few days, he wanted a clear head, even if he knew the pain was making him touchy. Elena's accusations weren't helping - he really didn't have the patience to try and sort the mess out this morning.
