#163: Hindsight is always 20/20

Stabbing Rogue.

There now, baby, does that make you feel better? I regret having done it, I do not know how long you will feel this need to punish me for doing so. Its actually quite refreshing, this vindictive anger you have towards me right now. Let's me know those pack of do-gooders didn't brainwash you completely. However, I also wonder if you're merely transferring your frustration and anxiety over this debacle you are embarking on with the metal-smith. I truly think that is what you are doing. Pity.

But yes, if I could take back something that I had done it would have been that. Or perhaps I could go back further in time, remove the need you had to avenge me with Ms. Danvers. Then you would never have desired to leave. Think of the possibilities we could have experienced, you, me and Irene. The world would have been ours for the taking.

I do not think that would have been possible though. You merely would have absorbed someone else and left later, making the pain you enacted upon us all that much worse.

I suppose then I would never have formed Freedom Force. It was a wasteful time and I hated being beholden to the government. And Irene would still be here. We never would have been in that fight. She never would have died. Therefore I never would have stabbed you, baby. Irene was always my voice of reason.

But that doesn't matter now. The past is the past. There is nothing one can do about what has occurred, you must merely look to the future. To live. To survive.

Besides, hindsight means nothing. Irene already knew what was to happen.

prompt, irene, rogue
