[ It feels like he broke Molly, which he did as Molly himself has said. It's something different to see him like this, subdued and tired, twisting up Fjord's guts when he thinks about the fact Molly was ready to almost flay off his own skin all because Fjord didn't sort out his reaction in private, like an adult. No, he had to put his foot down and damned the consequences. I don't want to love a part of you because it reminds me of someone else, that had been the painful kernel around which his whole discomfort circled. I don't want to share what we have with anyone else.

What is most important is that Molly is safe, at the end of things. Whatever he has scrawled on his skin is of no real importance to Fjord (not unless those eyes start glowing). It's done now, all of it. Nothing can change back even if a selfish part of himself wants it to so the problem is erased and his life is made easier, so it's up to him to shut up complaining and do damage control. ]

You really scared me when you said you wanted to hurt yourself because of me, I would never want you to do that. Promise me you won't.
