this is why freya doesn't have friends, honestly

[deathlessness]

[And there's her brother's name. So he did figure it out, or someone told him, it doesn't really matter in the end. She knew he was smart, and it's not as though she was overly subtle.]

Murder requires intent. If there was intent in this case, there wouldn't have been a question as to who was responsible, and I wouldn't be trying to protect them.

[Klaus would have gloated and made a show of it, and there would be nothing she could do to protect him. And she isn't saying there wouldn't be consequences, or shouldn't be. But how do you police magic and the mirrors and Wonderland without punishing those undeserving?]

There's also the matter of the consequences fitting the crime, and I believe that killing someone for something beyond their control is excessive at the very least. Even if Wonderland will reverse it.

[ They can argue about this until the end of time and it may not be resolved. Sam heaves another sigh, deflating again, and shaking his head. ]

I'm not interested in killing anyone. I just think - thought - that there should be some accountability.

[ Christ. And what's he going to tell Evie? Lie, obviously, after what he promised Lucifer... ]

I think we've both said enough. [ He concludes, shifting his weight uncomfortably. ] This is pretty unproductive so far.

[deathlessness]

[Accountability isn't something Freya is used to caring about. A monster in a family of monsters, she didn't care so long as they were safe. But she knows they can't exist in a vacuum here or rely on reputations, and while she doesn't want to end things on a sour note, she does recognize when she's pushed things too far, and is too emotional to make it right in that moment.]

You're right. Perhaps we should leave it at that for today.

[She'd understand if he needs to step away and there are other aspects of this she can work on that she doesn't need Sam for.]

[ofletters]

[ Sam just nods, shoulders stiff. At least she... agrees, if not understands. ]

... Anything else? [ He asks abruptly, seeming as if he's about to head for the door, which he is. There's a lot to do, to think about, these days, and arguing with her isn't on the list. ]

[deathlessness]

[She shakes her head, before closing the journal in front of her. She'll let him leave first - he's earned the right to storm out.]

No. That's all.

[ofletters]

[ He won't storm - not exactly - but he will leave. The last thing he wants, or needs, in Wonderland is enemies. Sam also knows how powerful Freya is, and doesn't particularly want to be at odds with her, either, despite what happened.

There's a stiff pause, and then he offers: ] We'll talk again.

[ Before walking out. ]
