" So what? Her being convicted doesn't matter 'cause thousands of poor innocent people - like little Vera here - were convicted of things they didn't do! That's why they're all being let back out of jail! "
" It's everywhere on the news. Don't you pay attention? "
" You should be happy that she's finally free of those false convictions!!!!!! "
" Also!!! You need to stop yelling!!! This is a hospital!! " She yells.

Bobby's police cruiser speeds to the clinic with so much velocity that Parsley Scotch: Gay Attorney is dumped out of the car and onto the curb when Bobby swerves to a stop.
" There you have it, citizen! One trip to the clinic successful! Get yourself patched up! "

Parsley yells in startle as he was very gracelessly dumped onto the curb, saved from faceplanting by his seat belt and damn near looking like he was going to have a heart attack.
"Um... Thanks. Have a good day."
After he unbuckles, Parsley wobbles to his feet and heads on inside, still holding the icepack to his face. Was the room always spinning? Maybe. He wasn't sure anymore.

" Wow, what a gentleman. She has to push herself? " The nurse instead takes the handles and pushes Vera out of the hospital. It's the law, man!
" Take care, you two! Don't forget to take your vitamins and eat an apple and get a yearly prostate exam! Ounce of prevention, and all of that! " And then there's Parsley hobbling his gimp ass to the doors.
" OH MY GOD! You're dying!!! Get in here immediately! " She cries, latching onto Parsley's gangly arm and wrenching him quickly into the clinic.
" .... " Vera's as pale as a sheet in the daylight. Her eyes are sunken pits in a hollowed face, her stare as vacant as Klavier can recall. He wouldn't be able to convince himself it were any Vera but the one etched in his dreams: it's the way her eyes lick over him, as though there were some machinations going on in that glassy stare that were far more insidious than anything that Klavier could even think of. She rises and approaches him with a level of assertiveness that he's never seen before.
" Prosecutor Gavin. I owe you an apology. " She says candidly, her voice - at one point barely a mousy whisper - gently commanding Klavier's attention.
" You shouldn't be this way. This wasn't what should have happened to you. " She regards him with pity; far more concern for him now than when he was oozing his life all over the floor of a studio. Fingers like spiderlegs spindle along Klavier's chest, stopping only to adjust his collar. " You are the one who has paid the price for my inexperience. You should be so much more than what you are now. " Do you remember, Prosecutor Gavin? Don't you know, can't you recall? The divine trapped in flesh, a God made human, and if it weren't for my mistakes, all of the things you're feeling right now would be a thing of the past. Can't you tell what's happening just beneath your skin? Can you feel the chill rolling up your spine? The itch in your brain, the wrongness in your being? You should be a shepherd of this world and instead... just a man.
Vera's lip curls in subtle disgust: Klavier, light of her life, a man with all the flaws of being a man made of flesh and bone and sinew and not the deliverer he was intended to be. The world is colder now, it is harder now, it is more dark and dismal than it's ever been and Vera knows in her heart it is because she has failed.
" And yet... you still come to me, even after I have failed you. Even after I let them kill you. "
" You grace me with your presence. Prosecutor Gavin. You truly are a treasure. "

'' Yep, I knew it was going to be something fucked up. Come on, Fraulein, let's figure out what the hell we're going to do with you. ''
[ Klavier shivers and re-adjusts his collar just to make sure Vera wasn't the last person to have touched it, then heads out to go to his motorcycle, expecting Vera to follow him. ]
