I still got the email, even if the comment is no longer there.

Of course I love you, Scarlett. Why would that possibly change?

I ate you. It wasn't enough that they were the enemy, I had to add to it all.

I didn't fight them. I didn't stand up for Stephie. I let her take the torture that should have been mine. I let her lie to protect me but I did nothing to protect her. I know how you feel about Stephie and I know how much I love her as well, but I just let it all happen. I didn't stop them from whipping her and I didn't stop the thumbscrews and I remember exactly what it was like to have all my fingers broken by them. I didn't save anyone. I was too scared to even do anything.

And I fucking ate you. If you weren't dead already then you'd be dead now. Or it could have been Stephie. I can't even trust myself.

Scarlett, those men starved you and hurt you and you lost control. We all do it. And yes, there are consequences when you do it. But that doesn't mean I'll love you any less.

I was scared too, Scarlett. They would have done what they did anyway. The fault doesn't lie with you. They're horrible men. They did what they did, and it wasn't your fault.

I never would have let you touch Stephie. I was trying not to hurt you when I tried to get you off of me. But forgive me when I say I wouldn't have let you hurt her, even if it mean I had to knock you out again. If only to protect the both of you. As for me...I wasn't alive, so 'what ifs' will bring us nothing.

I forgive you, Scarlett. Forgive yourself.

I was my fault you were there in the first place.

I don't know how to forgive myself for this.

Do you forgive me for getting you both into the mess in the first place?

You didn't. They did it because they're hateful, evil people. So, yes, I forgive you. Because there's nothing to forgive.

And I don't think you're to blame for what happened either, Scarlett. I really don't.
