Muse is upset on events at Paradisa and her unfortunate demise to come from them

[well_assembled]

You have that wrong.

You think I'm upset over dying there under those circumstances? I'm not, it's the best possible outcome all things considered.

My former programming was triggered and I'm walking the halls trying to kill anyone in my path and blow up an entire space ship. How do you think I would honestly want to live under that condition?

And let see..yes my past resurfacing, visions of the dead..hearing their voices. Children. Can you even conceive of that? Because I sincerely hope the answer to that is no.

Death is better, so let me die, let this be over quickly and with as little blood shed as there can be.

It kinda is, though, ain't it.

No, it's this ship. This thing is literally a vessel to hell and it brings back the worst of you with it.

That isn't your fault, these are my sins.

[trainwrecked]

Except where I was in charge of making sure you had in you the worst that you carry with you, anymore.

You were my trainer, you only made me better at doing what I was already set to do. I was a child when they began my training, you only came along after.

This isn't something you can take on your shoulders.

[He just. Looked at her. Not pointedly, or anything as obvious as that.]

[He'd been a part of what made her the way she was. A reason for to want to be what they were shaping her into.]

I made you choose it, embrace it, for far longer than you would have, otherwise.

You gave me hope and light in the darkness. I cannot and will not fault you for that.

[Beeat. In which Bucky felt like his heart was just. Melting.]

Then let the hope that the light is still there get you through this time of darkness, too?

[Because WHAT else could he say?]

[well_assembled]

It always has, you always have.

[And maybe someday, maybe someday it will be different and things wont end like they did. She clings to that as a tiny piece of hope that she never let them take away from her.]

[trainwrecked]

[... well, then. He just moved over and wrapped her in a slow, non-threatening hug.]

You'll make it through. And, eventually, you'll come back to me.

you didn't see that

[well_assembled]

[And she'll slip into that hug and just hold on.]

Just don't go leaving me.

See what?

[trainwrecked]

[Yes... good. Good.]

No, ma'am. Never again.

exactly

[well_assembled]

[And that was exactly what they both needed. She held on a little bit tighter.]

Good, because if you do I'd have to find you.

w00!

[trainwrecked]

Well, now I know what to do if you ever complain of getting bored. World-wide game of hide-and-seek.

[Not now. Now, he was holding on tight, too.]
