These stories always focus on the victim. The person responsible for the calamity is never mentioned. No one wants to hear about the kid who paralyzed his own brother, or the driver who fell asleep at the wheel, or the pilots that took down that cable car. But I want to know about the perpetrators. I want to know about the people who caused the tragedies. The people like me. Are they ever forgiven? Do they ever move on? Not a moment goes by where I’m not thinking about what I’ve done. Not a moment goes by where I’m not thinking about you. About what you’re doing. How you’re doing. And how you go on living when I’ve completely shattered your life.

"After a minute they saw grey-streaked hair followed by a noble face with an impressively crooked nose, which did not belong to a ghoul, but a thin middle-aged man. Percival was not mistaken. The man did in fact look like a tax collector."
Did y’all know the protagonists in Def Jam Vendetta actually have backstories? Can’t blame you if you didn’t, since the games makes no mention of them aside from the fact that your character used to date that universe’s version of Christina Milian.
