It was...kinda like I was livin' in a nightmare. My thoughts were seriously disjointed, and all I could think about was shit about myself that I didn't want to admit.
[That's nice and vague enough.]
It latched onto Terezi's sense of justice really fuckin' hard, though.
On a normal day, I wouldn't've attacked and killed someone for no reason whatsoever. Wouldn't've killed them regardless, unless they gave me no choice. Our world ain't the nicest of places, to be honest.
I don't wanna take away your pain or minimize it or anythin'. But it almost feels like I'm more at fault because I could've maybe helped stop a lot of this. Could've locked you in a room or something. Something.
Nope. You heard about some game we have to play from Terezi?
[This is a big leap of faith for him, but Beiste has been nothing but honest and trustworthy. He just hopes he's putting his trust in the right person.]
Alright. Not sayin' I'm letting this go or anything but, y'know. I appreciate the honesty. And I won't mention your eyes...
[She hesitates. Does she want to ask?]
Who was the other kid?

Wasn't gonna ask you to. Death's not a thing I think should be lied about, as much as I don't like it. Puck wasn't lyin' about the eye color, either.
[Dave takes a moment to slide the shades off for a moment to reveal his eye color. Then he slips them back on.
He pauses.]
Dunno if you know her. The other kid was Terezi. I'm gonna check in on her soon.

She stiffens when Dave confirms her fears though.]
Yeah...I know her.

[Speaking of, she might as well ask.]

So it was kinda...constant? You weren't just in it when you were attackin' someone?

Guess that means I wasn't a wolf, then...

Good. It's...a horrible experience, to put it mildly.

I can imagine. I...I locked myself up just to avoid it. It'd be bad for me to lose control like that. To put it lightly.

Smart thing to do, really, when everyone's doubtin' everyone. How've you been holdin' up?
