so that we can have tribal council and decide to vote somebody off the island? we can't even agree on whether there's a we or not.
[ because literally everyone is a loose cannon, whether daisy realizes it or not. they're all emotional disasters just trying to scrape by. the well-adjusted are not welcome in new amsterdam. ]
No. So we can talk to each other and figure out if there's a problem before somebody gets killed.
[ Illya would've gone after Kovacs after seeing the state Daisy was in. Damian would've joined him. something would've happened that couldn't be taken back. ]
You're right. We can't agree on anything. We're held together by threads. If this had gone any further, I don't know if we could've pulled it back.
[ he's trying desperately hard just to spin the various plates needed to help keep this thing afloat. something like this could've smashed more of them than he could replace. ]
i'm not a complete psychopath, stephen, i wasn't going to kill the guy.
[ she's defensive and thus missing the point. yes, illya absolutely would have tried to murder a man who hurt her, and if she was more rational she might admit that's a dangerous consideration. but daisy would hurt people too, as it turns out, if they hurt the ones she cared about. ]
[ yes, it's done. he and Damian have cleared up the scene the fight left behind to minimise questions, Stephen's made contact with Kovacs and settled the waters, Daisy's safe at home with Illya as a silent if apparently diligent nursemaid.
it could have been a lot worse. it's been contained. ]
You might want to talk to Prompto when you're feeling up to it. I gather he's frustrated.
[ okay, she'll concede that point. it frustrates her — because she doesn't need him to fight her battles, because she handled it just fine — but she's not stupid enough to dig her heels in and cover her metaphorical ears. ]
he's just protective. i wouldn't have let him do something stupid.

would you like me to vote myself off the island in absolution? because i think we're a little low on confessional booths in the safehouse.
