( Clementine stays near. She doesn't study or watch him, but just stays nearby in case he needs anything. For now, he should get to smash and re-smash and smash again until every last piece is shattered and then shattered one more time. There must be so much going on inside of his head. She can't tell what- She doesn't have the context as to what brought him here and what he's been through.
It's clear in his movements.
It's clear in the fact he's only half aware she's right here.
She takes a step forward when he looks at her as if realizing she's here. )
Angus. I've never stopped a single serial murderer. You know plenty, and you use that to do the right thing.
( He's smart. He cares. )
You know Georgia? ( She guesses it has something to do with why he's here. Everyone likely knows who Georgia is if they lived through the Event from her world. She's a big name there. She's important to Clementine. Clementine looks up to her, and she's gotten a lot of help and advice from her before, but they've disagreed before. ) What... happened?
and then i came back to tag this a million years late cause i couldnt let it go
No, I... I don't get what the world is really like. Or how things can be. Georgia said--
[He has to stop freaking out, he's freaking out. He idly steps on some porcelain shards, breaking them down further, taking a deep breath.]
I'm just a coddled little kid. Georgia explained everything about her world and I... I argued with her!
[He rubs at his head, as if trying to wipe the memory out of it.]
I don't... even know how to explain what she said. Like how the... how everything is so corrupt she can't do anything about it even though she keeps trying, even though it killed her, and I just...
[Moreso than what Georgia said, Angus can't find the words for what he said. It all seems like the foolishness of a child compared to Georgia's experience.]
Georgia likes it when you argue with her. She doesn't want people just believing her like that.
( she wanted clementine to think for herself even if it didn't line up with what georgia thought, and it meant a lot to clementine. she's still trying to figure out how to deal with this world, how to think about this world in a different way than her own. )
I've disagreed with her before too. I promise it doesn't mean she thinks less of you. Don't worry about that.
( her jaw locks a bit at the rest, shifting from one foot to the next. she tosses something fragile to the floor to watch it shatter before she looks back at angus. )
Sometimes there's shit we can't stop. Sometimes the world can't be changed at all, Angus. No matter how hard we try. Some people try anyway. That makes them good. I agree with you. She's always been a hero to me. But it's hard for people to take that sometimes especially if they've had to live with the consequences- if they've had to live with the shit their actions did, right or not.

She wouldn't accept me calling her a good person.
feel free to always come back to it .-.

There's always a fallout.
