“You guys kill each other. That’s not family.”
Uh. Each other?
Pretty sure Jack’s been doing his best to prevent that.
“You’re derailing our conversation, Bonesaw,” Jack chided the girl. “Amelia, when I say you could have everything you ever wanted, I’m telling you that you could live free of guilt, of shame, you could have your sister by your side, no more doubts plaguing you, no more feeling down.
And if she refuses, Bonesaw can make it so she’ll really always have her sister by her side.

“Amelia, you could let yourself cut loose and love life for the first time since you were young.”
Fuck, that one hits hard.
