|
| * Wait, "the others"? You've been... left behind before? |
| You don't know what it's LIKE |
| All by myself... chained and abandoned |
| Nobody stops, nobody looks down, |
| They want to leave and leave and leave |
| and if I LET THEM then NOBODY will be left |
| |
|
* Aww... that's so sad!

| Why do I have to stay behind...? |
| |
|
* You... wait...
* The shackle!
|
| |
|
* The root of your problems isn't that everyone is leaving you...
* It's that that shackle round your leg stops you from leaving with them!
* It's a material issue! If we just remove the shackle--! |
| YOU THINK I HAVEN'T TRIED!!?? |
| YOU THINK I HAVEN'T RENT MY FLESH AGAINST MY BINDINGS?!! |
