The guilt that isn't there

[springlocking]

All in all, Charlie's dealing with the Nexus as best she can. It's about the opposite of what she'd expected when driving out of Hurricane, but...it seriously could be worse! She could still be in Hurricane, dealing with-

Well, with certain incidents that have been troubling her ever since. Which is why, if someone sits on a bench next to this seventeen-year-old, she might speak up, troubled and thoughtful.

"Hey, this is probably a weird question, but is it...is it normal not to regret something when you did it in self-defense? Even if it was something really bad?"

There's someone who absolutely would agree with Ixis about remorse and self-delusion! ... He's currently rotting in an abandoned pizzeria after dying a horrific death courtesy of the girl Ixis is speaking to. :) Make sure your costume/armor doesn't have known exploitable flaws, folks!

"I meant more along the lines of 'remorseless psycho killer in general', not that." She pulls a deeply unamused face at the very idea and shudders in disgust. ... Also in cold. It wasn't winter back home, darn it!

RIP Springtrap, see you later in the 3rd game. And in various nightmares across the globe.

"Well, remorse and pity are different things, child. You don't have to be sorry for the decisive actions you took or the logic that took you there. And I'm sure there's a lesson in there about always being cognizant of the value of life and staying humble in the face of that and similar twaddle, but." He waves it off dismissively. That's apparently not a lesson for him to teach. Wonder why.
