[She watches the screen, her expression carefully blank]
...they weren’t there when... there was too much chaos. Too much danger. By the time anyone realized what had happened, it was too late. Clare tried to kill me. It didn’t help her.
You don’t know. It wasn’t possible to--
Nothing could have stopped it once it started. And it was like the whole world just... my head it’s all-- [Wait. Stop. Reorient. She closes her eyes, and takes a breath.] ...I don’t know if I ever left Anatole. But I feel like I did. For an instant, here, and for years, really. Because I remember cutting Teresa’s head off. And I remember taking Irene’s arm. I remember the North. And when Isley knelt in front of me and promised to give me everything I desired. And when all the lights went out in Pieta. And Raki. And starving. And traveling with Raki because Isley made us leave him to die.
I remember everything, and my head is so... it was full of thoughts and puzzle pieces and people kept attacking me, and no one understood.
[She tips her head a little.]
But I didn’t kill anyone.
It was two weeks.... I think. After the statue had gone silent and things had become normal again, it took a while for Orihime to turn me back. I still don’t know why she did. If someone asked her to. But she turned me back into this... thing.
