I sighed, “Look, Charlotte, I’m not your enemy.”
Always good to establish that.
“You saved my life,” she said.
Yeah, I’m glad she acknowledges that here.
Although, as I’ve said, it’s worse grounds for trusting someone than many think.
“That’s maybe an exaggeration. I saved you from being assaulted by those men, probably-”
I was kind of thinking the same thing, but the way Taylor’s getting cut off here makes me think Charlotte is about to give us more details that show how staying would likely have led to her death.
I could see her shrink into herself.
“-I’m sorry.” I finished, lamely.
Oh, never mind, Taylor was cutting herself off.
Yeah, I guess this technicality isn’t the best thing to remind Charlotte of right now.
“You’re a villain,” she said, and it took me a second to realize it was more of a non-sequitor than an admonishment for reminding her of what had nearly happened to her.
That moment of confusion is entirely fair. Then again, it doesn’t really need to be a non-sequitur, per se – she might be bringing it up as an implied question about “why”.
But it’s also important as a moment of acknowledgement of that fact out loud between the two of them.
