Horst Cabal has left Adstringendum - for those who weren't aware.

[The reality of it hadn't set in until that morning.]

Perhaps the rest of you will believe me now when I tell you what a worthless waste of a body he was.

[Private to Jack:]

Do you still have that gun? I'd rather like to shoot something right now.

How could you even say something like that?

We had plans.

[Johannes is seething.]

It wasn't as if he had a choice.

Something could have been done.

I'm not interested in lectures from children.

Close enough.

Relation of some sort, or is the sharing of a surname coincidental?

[She's ignoring that last statement, for the moment.]

He's my blasted brother, for all that it matters.

I'm sorry, for what it's worth.

[Some people react to loss with anger, and she's assuming Johannes is one of them.]

It's worth absolutely nothing.

This was just to let the people who hadn't figured it out yet know that he'd gone home.

I always have a gun. [...Which could be read as innuendo or just a statement of fact, really.] We can do that.

[A pause.] I'm sorry about Horst.

There's nothing to be sorry for.

[His voice is clipped, irritated, like a cat that's been rubbed too hard the wrong way.]

I'd like to borrow the gun. I won't waste more than a bullet or two.

That's not going to change the fact that I'm sorry.

[His is, too, but less irritated and more detached, really.]

Mmn, I suppose. Give it back, though, I doubt I could find a Walther around here again.

I hardly plan on keeping it. I've got my own gun, and I prefer it over anything else here. I'm just lacking ammo.

[Private:]

Underground, later this week.

[Juliet looks very sad at this news.]

Mr. Horst.... At least now he will not be sad over the loss of Miss Alice, I suppose, but....

[She blinks, though, at the man's next words.]

I would hardly call him useless, good sir. What about the school he created? That is not useless. And the care with which he looked after Miss Alice?

All of it useless. Alice is gone back to her world, and it's not like she'll remember how she was treated here. And the school was pointless.

[Grumpy. He's just irritable and grumpy.]

Perhaps her head will not, but her heart may. The heart remembers things better than the head at times. And regardless, it is good that she had someone while she was here who cared for her and kept her safe and allowed her to be a little girl. It was important and useful to do whilst they were both here, and his compassion should not be belittled.

To learn something new is never pointless. Even if it will only be remembered whilst one is here.
