what it sounds like
Sorrow crumpled Clay's brow, anguish sitting a cool beast within his breast. Its claws pulped deep within his heart, leeching cold dread and throbbing in tandem with the Phantom's scar.
You didn't tell him. You didn't tell him. You could have killed Solomon and you never said a word to him.
"I'm sorry, I-," came the weak beginning, once-grinning lips thin and twisted in a pain his medication could not touch. Clay's head lowered, a frustrated sigh wracking his shoulders. "I don't know why I didn't trust you to be on my side. I should never have listened to Yuri and you shouldn't ever have found out like you did. I should've explained..."
But you didn't. You didn't and now Apollo is cleaning up your mess, once again. Look at what you've done.
