[ oh boy you haven't heard the half of it ]

I told you it would. [ It's not accusatory or exasperated, more a little relieved. She still very pointedly looks everywhere but at him. ] Are you feeling alright? No weird side effects or anything?

[ She already feels pretty horrible, so she can't quite imagine what it'll be like once they finally get down to the truth. ]

I'm sorry.

It's okay. [he's still mumbling, lifting his hand to scratch the back of his neck uncomfortably.] I said some pretty dumb things.

I shouldn't have started telling you all those things when you weren't in control of your own mouth. [ Playing with the ends of her hair, she speaks very quietly. ] It was unfair of me to do that.

[he doesn't want to say that that was okay when it clearly wasn't for either of them, but he doesn't really know what else he can say besides that. Monsters, hybrids, whatever she was talking about, it didn't really make sense, even if it connected with a number of visions he remembered since coming here. It was still hard to tell those apart from normal (actually very weird) dreams...]

[ Long pause. Long, long pause, where Teagan wonders if this is worth it. If it's worth hurting this boy she cares about quite a great deal with the ugly truth or just hurting him by the more traditional route. After all, it's probably easier to deal with a breakup than knowing that your girlfriend is essentially a mass murderer. But if there's the chance, the slightest chance of a light at the end of the tunnel... shouldn't she take it? ]

I didn't tell you everything, though. In fact, I barely scratched the surface.

[couldn't he just say in denial for a little longer?]

You didn't?

[ she has to do it now or else she'll never manage it, and everything will get that much worse. ]

Nope. Not even close.

[his loss of words is about to become an epidemic, Teagan.]

Then... what is it?

[ Teagan laughs involuntarily, pressing the back of her hand against her mouth as she feels a lump rising in her throat. ]

It's like it says. I don't know how to tell you these things. It's so hard.
