to the traitor.
“ wait… it was you? this whole time, it’s been you? “
“ how could you do this to me?! “
“ you’ve thrown your own family to the wolves, i hope you know that! “
“ i knew it… loyalty never was your cup of tea, was it? “
“ of course! it’s been you all along, hasn’t it? “
“ traitor! what have you done?! “
“ do you expect me to be surprised? it’s hardly the first time you’ve betrayed me. “
“ but… we’re family/friends/in love… “
“ you’d betray the one/people you love?! “
“ i trusted you! “
“ look me in the eye, you backstabbing snake! see what you’ve done! “
“ you may have them all fooled, but trust me. i don’t forgive easily. “
from the traitor.
“ oh, don’t look so surprised. i never was one for loyalty. “
“ betrayal. revenge. quite similar, if you think about it. “
“ did you really think something so coincidental as blood could guarantee you my undying loyalty? “
“ god, i really had you fooled, didn’t i? “
“ it has been such fun fooling you. really, it has. “
“ being related to you is beyond my control. but betraying you? now THAT was fun. “
“ i’ve spent far too long living in your shadow. it’s time to reverse roles for a bit. “
“ your trust has been rather nice, but… the money is infinitely better. “
“ you’re actually surprised, aren’t you? my acting must be better than i thought… “
“ yeah, yeah, i’ll pay for this, i know, but… well, it seems like i’ve BEEN paid for it, haven’t i? “
“ it’s nothing personal. survival of the fittest, blah blah… you know how it is. “
about the traitor.
“ we’ve been played. “
“ they sold us out! “
“ it was all a trap! this whole thing! god… i’m gonna kill ‘em, i swear… “
“ god, i told you not to trust them! “
“ it’s not your fault. they fooled us all. “
“ they lied to us? “
“ how could they do this?! after everything we’ve been through… “
