Re: Hotel: Clem & Penny
Your soul didn't. You quit talking that way. You know I don't care for wallowing. World's hard enough, and we don't got to help it along. [Clementine, she felt real sure 'bout that. It was the reasons she put herself damn first, and just as often as she could. And Penny would be a whole lot happier, Clementine thought, if she could do the same.] Honey, I been watching you turn more and more miserable over how other folks are. Graham, Jake, Martin, and there's probably folks I'm missing. Wherever we go, wherever we end up, I think you ought to maybe think on talking to someone 'bout your worth not relying so hard on other folks, and what they do or don't. Folks, we're all a mess, and none of us are steady enough to base living on.
[Maybe that was practical a whole lot, but she wanted to see Penny smile for damn once. And it wasn't even that the woman was caught up in the hotel's damn drama. It was other folks doing the hurting, and Clementine knew folks would just keep on, because that's just how living beings were.] Somewhere warm, so we don't need to wear coats any in winter. Bimini? [Clementine, she did love herself some pretty water.]
