“There can be.  You could do what’s right.”

That’s… pretty much what she’s been trying to do for most of the story. The only difference is she decided to do it via the villainous path because she wanted friends.

I was getting an inkling of what Bitch referred to as ‘words’.  Prattle that meant so very little in the face of what was happening in the present.  Was this the kind of irritation, impatience and anger she felt with so many social interactions?

“You talk too much.”

I clenched my fist.  “Speak for yourself.  You want to hide here while my group and Hookwolf deal with the brunt of the Nine’s attention.  Just like you did with the ABB.

And when the threat is defeated, Piggot swoops in and twists it into the PRT’s credit.

“That happened under Armsmaster’s leadership.  You can’t blame us for being intelligent about how we go about this.”

Pfft! “You can’t blame us for the actions of a douche we put in charge!”

I was disappointed my swarm couldn’t convey my anger.  “I can blame you for being cowards.  I’m going.  If you want to talk about morality, start by talking to Armsmaster.

Touché.
