Why bother if you don't enjoy it? What's the point?
[Weirdo.
His eyes flick to the sin again and he spends a moment thinking it over. He doesn't want to talk about Hettie, but maybe he can get away with staying vague. It's not like he had to go into much detail for the murder thing.]
Whatever, fine. I have a friend back home that doesn't know I kill people. She kept finding out, so I retconned her memory a few times. I didn't want her freaking out and ditching me.
[Or going to the cops, but he was less worried about that. He can deal with cops. It would not have been the first time he was arrested.
Nothing happens, though. He kicks at the machine between them, but of course that does nothing, either. So, what, that wasn't good enough? He grits his teeth.]
She kept finding out because I kept telling her. I'm still figuring out how to explain it so she'll understand. Trial and error, you get it.
[And hey, there's the next sin! Great! He'd love to move on!]
