( Clementine nods right along with Sans even if she doesn't know if they'll be able to help at all. Sometimes they fight anyway, sometimes she fights anyway. They'll stay. )

A lot of people have died because of me back in my own world, but not here- Things are different here. The fucked up shit we went through shaped us and stays, but the situation in Wonderland is so different, and you tried to save Jay, and you helped me.

( And that matters too. She wonders at the terrible things people go through to make themselves feel like they're poison, but didn't she feel similar to that back in her world? Just not in those exact terms, because people just tried to protect her all the time or- or she had to make decisions other people wouldn't or couldn't. People died because of her. They died around her. They died to keep her safe. They died because she killed them.

It's why she aggressively fought so hard to stay alive, to survive, because she owed it to them. )

Jay's right. It sounds way more fucking complicated than that.
