[ she smiles, happy that firefly acknowledges they're friends. ]

Have you patched things up with him?

[fightolive]

Well.... I don't think we're on bad terms. [On either end.] I'm willing to move past what happened, but it feels strange to need to forgive him for it.

[florescences]

I don't think you have to forgive him. I'd think he'd say the same, too.

[ but yves feels his guilt deeply. ]

[fightolive]

[She doesn't thing it's the kind of thing people should have to forgive. But at the same time, it was something that had to happen.

What a strange variation of heaven they're in.]

I don't want him to punish himself over this. But I don't really know how to help him either.

[florescences]

[ it may have been necessary, but emotions and the heart are what they are. it would be foolish to force those kinds of feelings. ]

It's not your responsibility. You can tell him your honest feelings, if you feel like talking to him. He made his choice, and he knows he hurt you.

[fightolive]

I would still like to talk to him.

[florescences]

[ gazes at the day on this thread ]

I think he'd accept any letter from you, Firefly. But if it's something you want to do in person, that might require a little patience.

[fightolive]

[ Stares into the abyss. T'was Monday. ]

Letters are fine. I don't want to see him die, even if it does mean he'll end up here.

[florescences]

You and I are on the same page for that. I don't want to see him on this side either.

[fightolive]

It'd be nice if he could make it to the end of the eight weeks.

[She will remain hopeful (foolishly).]

People seem very fond of him.

[florescences]

I'd like for that to happen, too. He's someone that invites affection from others, as much as he gives it.

[ isn't that why firefly confided in him before she was killed? ]

[fightolive]

[ yes

what have we learned from the murdergame, firefly: never to trust anyone ever again. ]

... He really has a way of pulling people in.

[florescences]

[ trust is necessary. ]

Do you regret it?

[fightolive]

[ It will be considered. ]

Immediately, very much.

[A pause and then a sigh.]

But if I'm being realistic, I didn't want to keep killing. I'd already taken two. Leaving me alive would be a too much of a liability.

[florescences]

It was harmful to you, too, Firefly.

[fightolive]

I know that. I know it was the only way.

I just wish that it wasn't.
