[ revenge is something that robin does not understand, but she can see and feel the pain karlach has. it is an injustice. it is unfair, and it pains robin that karlach has to suffer so.
once the memory is done, robin's hand hovers over her heart. she knew something was different, but she didn't know it was stolen like that. ]
Karlach... Have you.... Is there.... [ there are so many questions she could ask, but they all feel wrong. ] That you are the way you are even after such a betrayal speaks to your strength.
[ because she has all the reason to remain as bitter and as angry as she is in that memory. ]
[ robin's eyes widen, as dread fills her. she didn't expect that soon. it takes much of willpower to keep her expression from crumpling. ]
It may be being here suspends you from what endangers you. I do not want to say being here... is any kind of boon, but perhaps there is a way from others outside your world that can help you.
[ she doesn't know if this is false hope. she doesn't want it to be false hope, but other worlds provide more possibilities. ]

Your heart... Is there no way to fix it still?

[she says, after a moment, dragging in a breath.]
And... no. It's too hot, can't exist on this plane. The only way is going back to the Hells, but I won't be doing that. I'd rather die.
So I figured I'll just take advantage of what I got.

Might be. I'm not sure what's stopping it. [a sigh.] I've had a couple people offer, but that means I've got to make it to the end of this.
And I'm not even sure we'll be able to do that.

There has been more death than expected. [ and she was expecting it. ] Even so, I still think we have a chance.
