Hey. This is Bellamy. We met on the ship.

I feel like I need to be honest with you if I ever want to be able to look you in the eye again... I spoke to your clone on camera and watched her touch herself. Yourself?

[ This is why guilt is his worst negative trait - he feels so guilty about it. ]

I'm really sorry. If you feel like slapping me the next time you see me, I wouldn't blame you.

[ well, that's —

she doesn't know what to make of this. doesn't want to make anything of this, doesn't really want to know about it. and yet she does. it's the kind of apology johnny would make if he did something stupid like that. ]

did you get off?

[ if this were a voice conversation, her tone would be a little mean ]

[skaikrudad]

[ He wishes she hadn't asked him that, but she has the right to know. ]

I did. Not while we were talking. Later. I ended the conversation first. Which doesn't make it any better, I know.

I shouldn't have done it. This place brings out the worst in me.

[ it's not the fact that he got off or that her clone turned him on. that's kind of a compliment, isn't it? dutch knows what she looks like.

it's that the clone wasn't her, that it did things looking like her that she had no control over. at least with aneela, it's most of the time possible to tell them apart. aneela doesn't claim to be her (anymore, most of the time —and back when she did, they were still trying to kill each other, so that's hardly an argument in the clone's favour.) ]

you owe me so many drinks
