1/2

I don't want or need pity.

[ Alice finds herself snapping, though there's something about this that makes her reconsider. If she feels guilty, it's hard to tell beyond her anger. She's not sure what to think about that, among other things. What good does that do for her? It won't undo what has been done, it won't bring back her father. It would be better to explain that she doesn't take to kindly to having her father somewhat insulted, let alone her.

But Alice is far too guarded to admit it's not the book, it was her father. It did bring her peace, it helped bring back the image of her father. Of course Alice isn't going to admit to that, stubborn as she is. ]


So what if I was grateful? That doesn't matter.
