We didn't get to dance and fight as much as I made it sound. But... I was at the dance to cause trouble in the first place. I don't know. I liked the night, but I look back on everything I was doing then and hate it, too.

Do you regret any of it?

[ She thinks perhaps regret and guilt are more her lifeblood than hope. ]

Some of it.

[ So much of it. He doesn't need to know the magnitude of the disasters left in her wake, or what is prophesied to come... She would like not to.

This dreadful city certainly wasn't in any prophecy. ]

I was not very close with others for most of my early years. I had only two friends, really, but they were family. There were times when we shared in the mischief and it could be great fun, though nothing quite as bold as what you have described.

Maybe because you never got the chance too. I bet you could upstage a few people if you wanted to.

[ She just has the vibe. ]

But the dancing and spending that night with someone... yeah, that was the highlight too. I've had friends come and go. Learning karate was the only time I got to feel part of something. Even if there was a lot of drama going on.

That happens when the owners have history.

[ Oh, dear Robby. 'Upstage' is putting it lightly. Their shared mischief may not have been so bold, as she so carefully worded, but Vanessa created enough trouble of her own to lead to catastrophe. She had her chance and she blew it quite literally straight to Hell.

She's only fortunate that none of that has followed her here. ]

It must have been a strange comfort to find a place of belonging.

What sort of history might create 'drama' as you say?
