Peter Vincent (is full of untruths)

Is there a reason you're so sexually aggressive? I mean, people say I'm a flirt back home. You take it to another level.

[fucking_ebay]

[Because I can back it up, he wants to say. First one's free, he wants to add. Instead:]

It throws people off balance, fucks with their heads. Stops anyone looking too close. Well, and sometimes I get lucky and find someone who's as easy as I am, let's not discount that bit.

[jumpthegun]

Why don't you want them to look too close?

[fucking_ebay]

Fuck.

[Just go straight to the heart of his problems, why don't you?]

Because they might figure out that I'm faking -- everything. That I'm fucking terrified because if I don't keep them out to start with they're going to figure out on their own that I'm not worth anything.

[jumpthegun]

[Oh. Well. Bloody hell, he didn't mean to lay it bare quite like that.]

Whoever told you you're worthless was wrong, Peter. And an arsehole. You're not a bad person.

[fucking_ebay]

No, he really wasn't. If I did one good thing with my life it's because I got a little fucking perspective. I already knew, anyway.

[jumpthegun]

[John is frowning a lot at you right now, Peter.]

Being a selfish person doesn't make you a bad person. The fact that you could and did change is proof of that.

That's the thing, though, right? I got my life on track. I did the right thing, got to be the kind of man I actually want to be, and what'd I get for it? Kicked off onto the universal circuit, turned into Bambi's fucking zombie cousin. Spent months digging up people's grandmothers out of the graveyards so I could eat them; tried to murder some poor fucker hooked up to a machine because I needed someone to blame.

[Well, that's horrifying.]

It's not your fault that someone else did that to you. When they change you. Sometimes it's... we had compulsions in Norfinbury, as well, sometimes. They changed the way we thought, turned us against one another. I wouldn't blame anyone except the people who were manipulating us and changing us for that.

[fucking_ebay]

Frankly I'd rather talk about fucking than [He makes a vague but emphatic gesture] this.
