Because my life is my own, MY OWN. My choices, my loss, my pain, happy or not.

[There's definitely hints of lashing out here, to say the least; Ebenezer's previous outbursts have had a sort of chilliness to them, even when laying into the Overseers about the latest motive or being kidnapped, it had felt more like intense annoyance rather than real anger.]

[Now, though, there's an edge in his voice, a wetness at his eyes.]


Not something to be toyed with, by- by Overseers or angels or dreams or ghosts and spirits, as some sort of threat or- as if I'm some kind of child to be lectured and educated on my own experiences. If I've loved and lost then happy or not that is MY life, sir, and I will not have it taken from me so easily.
