I don't understand.

[There are noises. Juicy, crunching, eating noises that in all likelihood you've never heard from Teresa before, even if you had seen her eat. Which you probably haven't.]

...humans spend so much time eating and sleeping, but for us, hunger is a sign of-- no, that can't be it. I don't want meat. I don't.

[...]Helen... Where

Private.

[yetsleeping]

I'm getting rid of a pest.

Private.

[prescientblade]

It must be an extraordinary pest to make you so agitated. Is Isley having another tantrum?

Private.

[yetsleeping]

No. He's fine, he's... hungry. But he went into the ruins to avoid temptation.

[SO THERE.]

...it's that witch.

Private.

[prescientblade]

Witch? What do you mean?

Private.

[yetsleeping]

Literal witch! Literal witch!

Private.

[prescientblade]

You don't have to yell, I'm not simple.

But I could use an explanation.

Private.

[yetsleeping]

That... witch. Bellatrix. She fought with Luciela during that--

Her.

Private.

[prescientblade]

And what did she do this time? This pest of yours.

Re: Private.

[yetsleeping]

She's a killer. She's a torturer. She even tortures childr--- she nearly killed Yachiru and she slit Lupin's throat, and she tortured Tonks and I'm just going to kill her and get it done with.

And if she comes back... again... I'll just... kill her again.

Private.

[prescientblade]

[...]

And you're going to get rid of her? Priscilla. That woman is a human.

Private.

[yetsleeping]

Is that what she is?

Private.

[prescientblade]

Technically, yes. Not a very pleasant one perhaps, but a human.

You don't kill humans.

Private.

[yetsleeping]

And when did you become an authority on humans who should and shouldn't be killed?

Private.

[prescientblade]

I didn't say I was any authority, or that she shouldn't be. I said you don't kill humans.

[And Bella probably does need to be killed, but she doesn't need to say that.]

Private.

[yetsleeping]

It's better than letting her keep rampaging around and hurting people, and this is not the same thing as your ridiculous outburst with those bandits.

Private.

[prescientblade]

...

You do realize that killing her would put you in no position to judge me for that, don't you? Or maybe you don't care about being a hypocrite.

It's not the same. But it's not so different, either.
