Something to tell you... [Video]

Jezebel, there's something I need to tell you

...

...so that was what you meant when you said you were glad I was here.

And it explains the date on the tombstone.

[deathstrumpcard]

Je-

...Doctor, I'm sorry...you weren't supposed to find out.

I never intended to tell you.

[deathofdelilah]

If it was to protect me, you needn't have worried so. I never expected a long life at Delilah.

[deathstrumpcard]

I didn't exactly think it was something you needed to know...not while you were here.

I just....thought it would be best.

[deathofdelilah]

Cassian...

[pause, then he realizes]

You've been cursed, haven't you. That's why you're saying all of this now.

[deathstrumpcard]

I think so...I don't believe I would have told you otherwise.

[deathofdelilah]

Cassian...you don't need to hide such things from me.

[deathstrumpcard]

Why do I have the feeling of being scolded?

I suppose I didn't want you to know because I didn't want you to have to think about it...I'm not going to let it happen again.

[deathofdelilah]

I'm not trying to scold you, I'm just...processing what you've said.

[deathstrumpcard]

Well...don't waste your time on it, because it's not going to happen again...or..at all, depending on how you look at it.

[deathofdelilah]

I'm not worried about that. If I am in the City, then it doesn't happen; if I were to be taken away from here...as I've said, such a fate does not surprise me, Cassian.

[deathstrumpcard]

Doesn't mean I have to be happy about it.

We'll see...

[deathofdelilah]

I'm not asking you to be.

I would not fret over it.
