Life's too short, dearie.

Name's Kaleb. Lebeau family orphan. So, up for a pint and a chat, are we? Or do you want to get straight into the bloody mess of it all? ▲ Relationships ▲

No, I don’t know but yelling at me isn’t going to fix that! I-…W-What? Y-You wouldn’t… Kaleb… I’m trying to help you! I-I…Maybe I should just g-go…

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I'M NOT--I don't...

I'm...I'm s-sorry...

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

[derek-james-collins]

Okay, wow. Inside voice. I just want to make sure that you know this isn’t because of you.

Alright. Careful there. [puts a hand over Kaleb’s, trying to get him to loosen the grip] I know, Kaleb. I know. You don’t need to tell me. I know.

You won’t hurt me. No matter what, I know you’d never do it. I trust you. Remember?

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I--! I...I'm s-sorry...

H-how do you know that if I d-don't even kn-know th-that? I'm...I'm trying n-not to, b-but I want to...n-no, I don't want to...god!

[falls to his knees, clutching his head and sobbing] I'm s-sorry, so sorry, I...

Screw them! Look at what they did to you… We didn’t do anything… We would never hurt you like that. You have to decide what you feel, not them. I love you, Kaleb. And…and so does Derek. And Billy too. Your supposed family doesn’t care about you as much as we do.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I CAN'T DECIDE WHAT I FEEL! I DON'T BLOODY WELL KNOW WHAT THE FUCK I'M SUPPOSED TO FEEL ANYMORE!

Do you know what it's like to have two halves of your brain going at each other like there's a damned war exploding in your fucking skull? It's taking everything I have not to snap your bloody neck right fucking now. And I don't know how much longer that will hold out.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[billy-tobisass-blog]

No, shh. You’re not… you’re not a killer. You’re Kaleb. And good.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

Deb-batable.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[darksienna]

Yes, we can. We care about you.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

That's the pr-problem.

You shouldn't, I sh-shouldn't...they d-don't like it. I'm n-not supposed to either. I...all your faults. No, all theirs. Or...oh, hell...

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[derek-james-collins]

Listen to me. No one says it’s your fault. It’s not.

O-okay.. okay. Do you want to show me? Your.. scars? You don’t have to. It doesn’t matter either way. I love all of your scars. I love all of you.

Yes, alright. We will stay home. Home. Our home. It doesn’t feel like home without you.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I KNOW IT'S NOT! THAT'S THE WHOLE GODDAMNED POINT!

It's...it's there. [points to chest, digs finger into the scar and hisses] I...I wanted it. It's m-mine. I...dammit, I w-want...want to tell you...

I d-don't w-want to h-hurt y-you. I can't...th-they did this to me...

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[darksienna]

Don’t talk like that… I want to help you. What can I do?

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

You c-can't help me. N-nobody can.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[billy-tobisass-blog]

Don’t… d-don’t say that.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I c-can't con-t-trol...k-killer.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[derek-james-collins]

Please don’t cry, my love. It will all be alright. I promise.

Sh.. no, you don’t need to— I know. Just let me hold you and listen to me, listen to me tell you how much I love you and how much I care about you. I just need you to understand.

Are you hurt? Do you want me to take you somewhere? The hospital?

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

They...it w-wasn't m-my f-fault. I...they k-killed...

Broke--broke me, b-burned me, sc-scars...healed. Not all. Not...n-not gone. I c-can't...trying...

N-no. I just...stay home. P-please?

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[darksienna]

Kaleb, I’m…

Whoa, okay, okay! I’m not touching you. W-Why are you acting like this? W-What did they do to you?!

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

What didn't they do to me, sweetheart?

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[billy-tobisass-blog]

You can’t stop people from caring about you! We’re all family and we all stick together, no matter what.

Shh, it’ll be alright. Whatever they did to you… they’re wrong.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

Y-you can...can b-break...I am, I...

J-just st-stay away from m-me.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[derek-james-collins]

Tell me later. We’ll fix this. Now I’m just happy to have you back. Alive. I was so worried, I thought—

I love you, Kaleb. I love you so much, do you hear me?

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

W-wish...wish I w-was.

I l-lo...I...no, I h-love....I...

Th-they took me, took my...my mind, it's...my h-hands, leg, chest, they all...

[billy-tobisass-blog]

W-wh-what? We did nothing but love and care about you. What…. what happened?

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

THAT'S WHAT YOU DID! IT'S WHAT YOU ALL--FUCKING--DID! AND I DIDN'T STOP YOU! I'm...I c-can't...

K-Killer, I'm...I have to...

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[darksienna]

K-Kaleb, what happened? I don’t understand…

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

Elizab-beth, why'd you...why'd you go aw-way? We...we were...

Y-you're...you're not...

Get the fuck away from me, you freak.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

I...

[derek-james-collins]

They took you? The Pures? What.. what did they do to you? No, no. They didn’t take everything from you. You still have me. You always have me Forget it, I’m not letting you go.

[kaleb-lebeau-blog]

Took me, they...hate, you, me--K-Killer, I...no, NO! I d-don't want--h-hate...y-you...

N-NO. I...
