I always hated OJ. I knew Paper loved him, but he always grinded my gears. Giving me that name that everyone uses on me that I despise, just generally being annoying and whatever excuses I conjured up to hate him...
But now he's gone. Seeing that on-screen made me remember- I wasn't fronting, but how couldn't I be aware of it? How couldn't I remember the way he stared right into our eyes as he begged for his life? I couldn't see MePhoneX. I didn't see what OJ was seeing. He's gone and it feels like my fault. We were arguing with him before and I was right in front of him as he died, unable to do anything, I couldn't even see what killed him. I wish I even had the chance to talk to him more, I wish we could've gotten along better, I... regret everything. I've always felt bad about my actions, but now that I can't even feasibly think of going back on them, what now? He can't be permanently dead. He can't be. It just doesn't make sense he can't be, if not for me then for Paper. He has to come back in the next episode, right? -Evil Paper/Looseleaf (Inanimate Insanity) fictive
