[Suddenly exasperated.]

You were hesitant to take my advice initially, and now that I've changed my tune, you want me to "put it from my mind" because of what? It's not what you really wanted to hear?

[velluminous]

I don't know! I don't know! [ puts her thumb between her teeth, bites down, grinds it ] Mammon, I have to leave. We are just going to tear each other apart like this.

[vecna]

[Again, that's the issue. She doesn't know. And Henry, he is much less uncertain.]

Give yourself time to figure out what you do want, then, Sprezzatura.

[velluminous]

I'm sorry. [ she can't believe how often those words now pass her lips ] Yes. I just have to figure some things out.

[ is he going to let her escape this time? ]

[vecna]

[This time? Yes, this time, he'll let her go. This time, the conversation has unsettled something in him, too, and he'd prefer to leave it hanging, even if they leave it unresolved.]

All right.

[In fact, he's the first to walk away.]
