Maybe it's different for me.

[tucky]

Why, because of what you do?

[characterdefect]

Yeah. Not so many people are kind to me.

[tucky]

Are they cruel to you?

[characterdefect]

No, they just don't understand. And they don't try, like you do.

[tucky]

I'm not the only one who does, right? I mean, you got a warden.

[characterdefect]

He's trying to change me.

[tucky]

... Yeah. That ain't really my thing.

Does he care about you?

[characterdefect]

Yeah. It's complicated, but yeah.

He's family, even though I don't think he wants to be.

[tucky]

[She sighs, and reaches for one of Roderick's hands - wanting something extra to hang on to.]

But being part of your family feels so nice.

[characterdefect]

[He holds her hand tight, tight as he can.]

He's my warden, though. He's got a job to do, I guess.

[tucky]

If I get an inmate, I don't want to feel like they're a job.

[And Simon would probably be disappointed about that too, she thinks.]

[characterdefect]

It can be a job and a friendship, I think.

He's just - he worries a lot.

[tucky]

I worry a lot.

[characterdefect]

Yeah. I know you do.

Neither of you have to so much.

[tucky]

I can't help it. Sorry.

[characterdefect]

Yeah. I don't think he can, either.

Part of why I love him, I guess.

[tucky]

Is it part of why you love me?

[characterdefect]

Yeah. A big part.

[tucky]

I love you for a lot of reasons, but one of 'em is that you love me. I love people who love me. Is that okay?

[characterdefect]

That's okay. It's just normal, I think.

[tucky]

... I didn't love you until I knew you loved me. I liked you, but.

But I don't feel like I love you in a less real way.

[characterdefect]

It's dangerous to give love out to people you don't know love you back. I understand.

[tucky]

I love you so much now, though.
