[good, because he probably didn't want to get into a stubborn off with someone who's on Pride team for a reason, who's friends gave a touching eulogy at his graveside about how he was an arrogant fucking asshole to the bitter end.
And he feels a lot of the same, gratitude for listening, relief, that he's going to try-- at least a compromise. It's a step.]
What was it you said the other week? Use me and lie to me however you need?
[ . . . . he pauses at that and - god there's a little bit more guilt.]
... I really wish it didn't come to that. The lying - even if it was just hiding and not speaking up... felt really uncomfortable.
[mineo's emotions were haywire during that trial and - maybe it's because people think they get haywire every trial that they didn't quite notice, but boy did this one do a number on him]
I'll make it up to you though - however I can. I don't like things feeling uneven either.
[molly doesn't really feel conflicted at all, at this point. Just calm for the moment.]
Don't like to keep a tally of these things. Debts and whatnot. Just try and keep a balance to the universe is all. The fact we were able to do that, to fucking trust each other enough to try it - that's going to be how we do it, I think. Get out of here.
[ . . . . there's just a little bit more fondness at that that manages to peek ahead of the other emotions. molly's calmness makes it easier for mineo, at least as he offers a small smile.]
... sounds right to me. I think... I really do trust everyone who's still here with that goal, at least. That we won't end up sabotaging each other.
We just have to figure out what to do next, right?
