Clarity glitched into Mick's cell still in her pj's from last night. She sat criss cross in front of him on the cell's floor. Mick looked down at her.
"Usually people stand on the other side of the glass Sparky" Mick told her.
"Guess I'm just unusual" Clarity replied with a smile but it didn't quite reach her eyes.
"Why are you here? Go bother someone else who has the freedom to leave the room once you get to annoying" Mick told her.
"I just wanted to talk? Please?" Clarity asked softly sounding well mick wasn't sure what kind of emotion that was.
"The hell you want to talk to me for?" Mick replied with a glare.
"Cause I need to talk to someone who won't coddle, pity, blow up in anger, or instantly try to fix whatever is wrong when I talk to them?" Clarity explained.
"So I was the best you could come up with huh?" Mick said in disbelief.
"Well I already talked with Gideon, but I know she just tells me what I want to hear and that's not her fault it was just how she was programmed. I thought of going to Rip or Sara, but that would lead to more questions than answers. Besides you said it yourself you don't care about me." Clarity stated.
"Get me a beer, then I might bother listening" Mick told her. If he was going to be forced to listen to her then he was at least going to make sure he got something out of it.
"One sec" Clarity replied glitching to the kitchen before glitching back with a beer for Mick. She handed it over to him.
"That was 5" Mick complained snatching it roughly from her.
"Sorry, I-I don't have superspeed" Clarity told him apologetically. They sat there in silence for a few minutes.
"Are you going to talk or just sit there like a kindergartener?" Mick questioned.
"Maybe this wasn't a smart idea" Clarity said taking her glasses off.
"Probably not but You said need not want. I pay attention. Now spit it out, it may seem like I've got all day but I have planning to do" Mick told her.
"I was...." Clarity took a breath.
"I was raped" Clarity admitted saying those three words to another human being for the second time in her life.
"Wasn't me" was Mick's instant reply as he peered into his beer bottle at the liquid inside.
"I didn't think it was" Clarity said with a slight shake of her head a slight smile forming.
"Nice story Sparky, But I don't do feelings. Never did" Mick told her sipping his beer.
"I don't hate him" Clarity went on and Mick's eyes rolled up to the ceiling because Jesus Christ she was still talking.
"I should hate him for what he did to me....why don't I hate him?" Clarity questioned. Mick was unsure if she was talking to him or herself but he decided to give her an answer anyways.
"There's this thing about hate. It starts small just a little flicker of fire in your eyes until it grows the flames flaring inside your very soul making you see nothing but red. Then before you know it the person you used to be gets burned away and all that's left are feelingless ashes. That's what it does to you, what it would do to you if you did." Mick told her.
