[There is a pause before the girl that was in a dozen pieces begins to speak. Her voice is quiet, free of the normal conviction and bravado that she would normally have in such a situation.]
Tell me where I'm needed.
[She has no right to call the shots when this is half her fault.]
not as strong as she appears,
it was just getting normal again,
trying to do the right thing,
fucking demons and shit,
that is a lot of blood,
guilt is her middle name,
burning the bodies,
break my little heart in two,
doing my civic duty,
the animus aren't cool,
death is but the next adventure,
boys? a little help here?,
three inches from the edge,
apologies aren't always spoken,
!event: ekpyrosis/walpurgis,
let the bodies hit the floor,
blunt post is blunt,
only mildly panicked here,
soldier of fire and justice

Y-you need to take care of yourself! P-please... [ he buries his face into his knees. ]
...Just help everyone stop all of this...! I-I don't know how, but...!

I am going to kill you. Do you hear me? You will never see the light of day again.

[Still curious. Not offended or worried, nor smug or mocking.]
It's already day, besides.

[A hiss.]
You didn't have to kill him. You manipulated him into thinking all of this would work, for what purpose? Your own sick games?

[Soft, with relief.]
Tell me everything you know, anything that may help.

...we summoned the Animus.

[He just looks... beyond horrified.]

But her jaw tightens and her breathing becomes faster and Mars manages a tight:]
Because I thought --
[And her voice breaks, but she manages to get a grip, though her voice becomes softer and less mechanic.]
-- I thought separating them, creating order among them, trying -- it would fix it and I was tired of not being able to keep people from dying and -- it had already been done with Aelia but it was a trick and when this -- Ekpyrosis --
[The more she talks, the more she babbles, until finally, something breaks, and the girl finally starts to cry. It's quiet, and barely there, but her breath is hitching, and her words are barely able to be made out.]
I wanted to make this city safer and I helped destroy it.

She's in Castiel's panic room.]
