“No,” Amy said. Then, just to make it clear, she added, “No, it’s not going to happen. I won’t join you.”
Bonesaw really doesn’t seem the type to take “no” for an answer…
“You will! You have to!”
“No.”
…but unlike Shatterbird’s way of not taking “no” for an answer, she’s more inclined towards “Yes you will!” or “Why not, we can change that!”
“I have to do like Jack said. He said I won’t be a true genius until I’ve figured out how to get inside people’s heads.”
Uh oh, back to this again. Are we going more literal with it, like I thought earlier?
“Maybe- Maybe you won’t be inside my head until you realize there’s no way I’m going to join the Slaughterhouse Nine.”
Heh, yeah. Not in the figurative way, at least.
Bonesaw frowned. “Maybe.”
Hm, is she beginning to accept it? Or just thinking up a different approach?
Amy nodded.
“Or maybe I need to figure out your breaking point. Your weak spot. Like that man there.” Bonesaw pointed at Mark.
…yeah, it was the latter.
“Cherish said you sleep here, and you’ve been around him for a while… so why haven’t you healed him?”
Oof. Sore subject.
She’s gotten enough of this from her family. Now she’s getting it from the one who wants to be family too.
