"I dunno, I find a lot of resolutions in killing," he mutters almost to himself.
Although that wasn't always the truth these days. It didn't even quite fit to call him an anti-hero any more, since people kept working to frame him as a full on hero. But did he believe himself to be a hero? Fuck no. He tried. Oh, how he'd tried. So, so many times. That was part of why he really hadn't killed as many in recent years as he had in the beginning. But he still killed. It was just a thing with him. A casual thing, even. Shit, if nothing was real, consequences didn't matter.
Look, we all know he's grown past this stage. Multiple times, even. But a little backsliding is good for fitting into this here game. Right?
"Eh, I had a feeling I couldn't really kill them. I've known a woman like her, I think. Maybe. My fourth walling can't see this woman, so I can't say for sure. But if she's anything like the woman I knew in another life...yeah. There's no fucking with her. Not even a little. And I don't mean that in a 'oh she'll getcha' way, although the woman I knew would. I just mean it in a 'that's just an impossibility' way.
All I know is she's just one of those impossibilities I fall in love with all the time because..."
He pauses. That might be venturing into secret territory. Better take it somewhere safe, quick.
"...Because they always have the best curves, and I do love me some curves."
