For just a second, the reminder of the Christmas before last's aftermath twinged his guilty conscience. A second later, and the rest of the words overtook the tone and the guilt - and he didn't just refuse to step back under the verbal onslaught, but took a step forward right into it.]
Oh yeah, how dare I stand here and tell you you're wrong! He's only the reason I survived in the first place, after all, he only saved all of us, how dare I be angry at you for refusing to acknowledge that people could be upset about his death! That people's opinions other than yours might matter in a situation like this!
[With a vehement jerk of his arm, he knocked away Tieria's jabbing finger.]
The fact that I came back doesn't mean you get the right to deny the reality of death as a whole, Tieria, but if you decide to anyway then you sure as hell don't have the right to judge other people for not doing it!
