[alright. so now she's feeling the effects of her Sentencing. she can barely lift her gauntlets now, and... you know what? with the way things are looking right now, she's not about to let all this get in the way of her protecting herself or the people she cares about.]

alright, who has a grudge that they need to work through? could be anyone from here, or at home.

or i guess, how do you forgive people who've fucked with you? would that even work in this case?

whatever. i'm just doing this to get my Sentencing over with. let me know so jerry sees it and i can move on with my life or however the hell this shit goes away.

private.

[she's 99% sure who she's talking to, but if Jinx wants to stay anonymous, she's not going to say anything yet.]

maybe you're just trying too hard. i don't think hiding in your room's the answer either, because that doesn't help you in the end.

it's not just about them, it's about you too.

private.

[opheliac]

That's confusing. They told me it's not about me, and I should stop making it about me.

[grappler]

do you think they're lying? why would you think it's about you, then?

[opheliac]

I don't think they are. They want me to butt out of their friendship with someone.

I didn't like them being friends before, but... I went away for a while and I grew up. Some.

I've tried to let them know that I'm not upset about it anymore, but... they still hate me. They probably fantasize about killing me. I don't blame them.

[grappler]

maybe you should give them some space for a while.

what's your relationship like with the other person?

[opheliac]

the one who likes me?

[grappler]

yeah, that person.

[opheliac]

We're really close. He works hard every day to make sure the world I live in perfect.

I've hurt him plenty of times, too. I'm trying to better for him, repay him for all the sacrifices he's done for me.

That's why I want to give him this one thing.

[grappler]

that's a tough choice. can't really say i can really give you advice there... i can't seem to let go of the people i love.

[opheliac]

Well. On the bright side, at least you know who you are. I still don't.

[grappler]

i might act like i do, but sometimes i don't. been through a bit of a crisis for almost a year at home, really.

you'll find yourself, Jinx.

[opheliac]

I'm not Jinx.

[grappler]

yeah, you are. you don't have to play coy.

[opheliac]

What's your proof?

[grappler]

basically everything you've been saying.

[opheliac]

That doesn't prove that I'm Jinx. I could be Ange. I could be Toph. I could be Jim.

[grappler]

none of them would talk like that to me.

[opheliac]

It's called being incognito.

[grappler]

not very good at being incognito if you ask me.

or maybe I just know you too well.

[opheliac]

Jinx or not, you better zip your lip about this talk between us.

[grappler]

oh I can keep a secret. not my place to say anything, anyway.

[at least for right now.]

[opheliac]

Good. So. I'm leaving now. Bye.
