"can you not? This is the worst time for you to f-$&ing say that to me! Aren't you innocent people supposed to have empathy! Everyone and everything I've ever loved is dead. They're not in prison, they didn't move away they DIED and you're standing there criticizing me over what I did way more than twenty years ago!"Alexander yelled, frustrated
-
Finn flinched but just ignored him
-
"I don't mention the fact you got no family when you're sad about bein' alone so why do you gotta bring up the fact that I'm a filthy no good killer who deserves nothing when I start mourning the loss of the innocent people in my life. Or maybe... Did you assume they're no good killers and thieves like me?" Alexander said
-
Finn continued to ignore him, not trying to take his words to heart. meanwhile he thought he was a little too trusting, and he kind of did ask for this.
-
"can you at least listen to me after you offend me." Alexander said before sighing. "You really are just like Jack." He said, retreating up to his waist into the box so he could rest his elbows on the narrow golden ledge
-
Finn shrugged "I dont really know if I should be offended by that" They said.
-
"Jack wasn't a thief. He was my little brother. He was abandoned here with me." Alexander said one of the blue lights glowed.
-
"Oh." Finn said "well I guess I'll take that as a compliment??" he said questioningly
-
"it's a compliment... In a way. Jack was a good kid. He never stooped as low as I did no matter how hard we had it. One time a mouse trap he set accidentally killed a mouse and he made us hold a funeral for the little thing." Alexander said.
-
Finn felt a ping of relation, as if that were something he would do. "oh yeah... I probably am like him, I would totally do that."
-
"yeah. The both of you are too soft for your own good... I shouldn't have been so tough on you a minute ago. I just... God damnit, I hate bein' preached too. Especially by people who didn't do what I have." Alexander said
-
Finn sighed "yeah, I was pretty stupid.. you did just find out that your family isn't around anymore, and that must be pretty hard."
-
"yeah. Imagine working your whole life so the people you care about don't have to live like you do, but then you get locked up and don't even get to know what happened to them. I don't know what my son did wen he grew up. I didn't get to see his eight birthday party. I didn't get to see my brother get married, I only met his terrible first girlfriend. I didn't get to see my own wedding. I never even got to say goodbye to Marco." Alexander lamented
-
Finn felt a little bad. "uhh... maybe a wish could show you how they lived the rest of their lives? I'm not sure how I would word it, but.."
-
"that's not a good idea. I can already see the monkeys paw curling it's ugly little fingers." Alexander said. He didn't look back at finn. He instead, closed his eyes, and remembered his family.
