Raylan stays quiet for a long moment, eyes crinkling around the edges as he squints softly.
"So. You're mad at her for bein' mad at you, for havin' killed her. And, I know I'm steppin' over a line here but - how would you feel about her if she wasn't pissed at you all the time?"
He really needed to see them interact; he was sure the rest of the pieces that hung in the air would drop into place like tetris bricks.
"Your agreement? You mean not rottin' fast enough around your coin to be gettin' it?"
His head tilts fractionally to the side and decides to push a little further.
"And I didn't ask you to imagine a world she wasn't in, though I gotta say I think it's a little sweet that you can't imagine a world without her, I asked how you'd feel about her if she wasn't pissed."
Sweeney rocks his jaw with clear intent, his frown cut deep. Raylan was wrong on both points. He does his best not to snarl, but the answer is sharply enunciated.
"First off, no. The fuckin' agreement that I'd bust my balls ta get her 'live 'gain so she would give me my fuckin' Coin back." His hand snaps at the door.
"She's the one that fuckin' walked out on me."
Gave up on me.
He sucks his tongue, fighting to keep his shit in check.
"An' I didn't say I can't imagine a world without her. I said I can't imagine one where she ain't fuckin' pissed at me e'ery fuckin' moment."
And he hates that small part of himself that knows, even though Raylan misunderstood him, Sweeney doesn't want to imagine a world she isn't in, either.
