I'm not sure. If what I did worked as intended, it would be a bad way to go.
I slit my wrists, once I was sure that the poison took hold. A final deception. I condemned them to a more painful end.
[Goodsir reaches for his tea and sips it before he dares look at Tim again.]
I believed us to be good men. I was so very wrong.
And even now, I don't regret it. I wish only it hadn't all been so pointless.
