For someone so damned smart you're so stupid!

He died because of me. And all those people, those people involved in the investigation? They died because of me too. And they died because you wouldn't let it go and you wouldn't just let me grieve.

They died because someone killed them. Someone murdered them and then killed more people to cover it up.

If you're going to blame someone, blame the right people!

I do, Jarod. I do. Every day.

Do you know my biggest regret about being here? I don't get to find which one did it so I can make them pay.

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Isn't that a reason to bargain for your life?

[voice - private]

[yourunichase]

[A laugh.]

Wouldn't that completely defeat the purpose of being redeemed?

[voice - private]

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Well, that depends if you think retribution is something that requires redemption.

[voice - private]

[yourunichase]

This wouldn't be retribution, Jarod. You saw me during that. Do you think it would be anything but vengeance?

[voice - private]

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

It all depends on how you see it, Miss Parker.

[voice - private]

[yourunichase]

Do you know who did it?

[voice - private]

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

What I told you before, it's true even now.

Missing pieces. You can't find them if you're here.

[voice - private]

[yourunichase]

Which means you know and like screwing with me too much to tell me.

[voice - private]

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Think about where I am, Miss Parker.

How could I know?

[voice - private]

[yourunichase]

You didn't figure it out in the year after I died?

[voice - private]

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

I was captured right after you were shot.

[yourunichase]

[A note of concern in her voice.]

They held onto you for a year?

[voice - private]

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

The Centre holds onto people for as long as they can. And if they can't, they dispose of them. Or the ones they love.

[voice - private]

[yourunichase]

Don't you think I know that?

I never thought they'd hold onto you.

[voice - private]

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

I never thought they'd break you to the point where you'd rather be dead than fight them.

[voice - private]

[yourunichase]

They didn't! Jesus fucking Christ. I am so sick of you thinking I'm weak for this!

[voice - private]

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Actually I think they were the same person.

[voice - private]

[yourunichase]

What?

[voice - private]

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Jesus Christ.

It's not really possible for Him to sexually copulate with Himself.

[voice - private]

[yourunichase]

[Just have an incredibly angry sound of frustration.]

[voice - private]

[i-run-you-chase.livejournal.com]

Just trying to help.

[voice - private]

[yourunichase]

Why can't you ever admit you just loooove to screw with me? Just once?
