[Hoo boy, does she understand. End of B2 and B1 sure were...something. There's more she wants to say on that, along with other mistakes and failed attempts, but she's having a hard time putting it into words.
It was strange. So often these days she found herself in situations like the one just minutes ago where she'd go over her story and thoughts for people that had the wrong idea about her. Now...there was someone who understood even if she didn't always understand. Not someone like Aunamee or Zack, who felt a thrill during the killing part, but someone like her, who fell in love with the results before getting to step two and needed more than anything to make that happen. Someone who would break because she couldn't fix.
Not everything was the same -- far from it. But explaining more without prompting didn't feel...as necessary. Would Riley think that's comforting or absolutely hate it?]
I wonder if that's something normal people realize. How hard wanting something can be... How it can make you get in your own way.
