I wasn't. And even if you were it wouldn't be the first time?

[Pause.]

Also 'sob story' or not, it's still your decision. I'm not going to... make you explain if you don't want to?

And I'm not going to make you listen to the long version if you don't care.

[But she can Cliff Notes it. It's a story she's been crafting for a while, after all; she knows it as well as she would if it were actually the truth.]

I was confused and scared, I didn't know if anyone from home had access to this place, and advertising my real name and the fact that I'm a prisoner felt a little too much like throwing myself onto the chopping block. By the time I realized that a lot of my fears were unfounded--

Pushing off things that are unpleasant and inevitable is a talent of mine. I'm sure my real warden is going to have a lot to say about that eventually.

If you give me a little bit more time, I promise I'll admit to everything. Soon.

[Or not, because the Mirror Barge stuff is about to hit, but she of course has no way of knowing that.]

Promises don't mean much unless you actually follow through.

[Which he suspects she knows, but that doesn't mean it doesn't bear saying all the same.]

Trust me, I know that it's better for me to out myself than for you to do it for me.

Mmm, well. That's something, I suppose.
