    Summary

    “I’m not sure what exactly you want, Herr Wright,” he says instead, flattens his voice down so neither anger nor tears leak through, and tries not to wince at the fact it defaults to friendly but distant charm instead. Like Wright’s an overenthusiastic fan who’s caught him while he’s busy and won’t take a hint.

    Wright knocks a fist against the doorframe, somewhat absent-mindedly. “I want lunch,” he says, finally. “The bus takes forever, give me a lift back into the city, will you?”

    In which Klavier and Phoenix are smart enough to finally have that conversation about the past, and dumb enough to do it in two parking lots and a burger barn drive-thru. There's no accounting for taste.

    Summary

    Kristoph, cont'd:
    She was also the murderer, but I won't bore you with the specifics. He ate glass for her. Nobody did anything of the sort when his own innocence was called into question; though I suppose that there was no question as to his guilt. What he did is not the sort of thing that can be covered up so easily.

    Trucy:
    Oh, Mr. Gavin, what a silly thing to say! You can cover anything up.

    Kristoph:
    I found that anecdote quite interesting. Do you think your father would eat glass for you, Trucy?

    Or, a three-man performance.
