[ Holding back? Jesse is ready to call bullshit on that one, but… come to think of it, Reaper hasn’t exactly been going on killing sprees, has he? For all his bluster and threats, his kill count is markedly lower here than it had been back home.
Must have had to do with the side-effects of killing. What else would explain it? Jesse shakes off the questions slowly rising up and quickens his step. ]
Blame Deerington then. Burn it all down. But good luck doing that if you make a stupid choice now and don’t come back from it.
[ Like if he dies again, and comes back not remembering who he even is. Jesse grits his teeth and stops dead in his tracks, dread and adrenaline coursing through him and tempting him to just throw his Fluid. There’s too much to say that he can’t, and too much to do that he can’t either. And all the while, he can’t help but imagine a glimpse of Reyes that is now spiraling further and further out of reach. ]
