Why is that Jinx gets to have Silco here, when Jinx is the reason Caitlyn will never see her mother again? Isn't that unfair? Isn't that wrong?
And they expect Caitlyn to treat them neutrally, to no longer have a desire for revenge or retribution, because there is no point to death. They must enjoy being in this place, because they get to be together while Caitlyn has no one. Not her mother, not her father, not Jayce — not Violet. She's alone, while Jinx and Silco get to enjoy their little business venture and each other's company. It feels like a rock in her stomach, heavy and dark.]
There's the Silco that I knew — the one who ruled a city from behind the curtain, not caring if he hurt people to achieve his goals. Don't forget again that I am your enemy, not your friend. I don't want your drinks. I don't want anything to do with either of you.
