[ And what if you're stuck in a cage held captive by your own self, huh? What then, Terrence?? ]
I don't like it, but that sort of stuff is still important to me. I need you to tell me things I should know, without worrying about whether it's something I want to hear or not. I can't help you if I don't know anything, and not being able to help when I'm more than capable of it is the worst feeling there is, more than any secrets you think are bad enough to hide.
[ Things like murder and blood drinking and all of that, eventually she'll get over it, because they're things that have happened and will happen, and she could never change that to begin with. But not helping when she can, and things falling apart because of that, she'll only ever carry forward the regret. She regrets being too small and weak to save her sister from the house fire. She regrets letting her guard down at the lake dungeon and getting Rei and herself killed when it was her one and only job to keep them hidden and safe. She regrets everything about Terry's dungeon, how much she was put through just to stand there the first time, and then the second, and the third but he wasn't even there anymore. She couldn't do anything. She can be the strongest and bravest person in the world, but unless she's allowed to get to know Terry, it's completely useless. ]
