There Are Cases Where Examinations Are Admitted, Namely, Before The Coroner, And Before Magistrates In Cases Of Felony.

And In Case You’re Curious, She’s Headed Straight For Us. I Could Be Really Wrong Here, But I’m Guessing The Woman’s Extremely Pissed. (hermes)

We All Have Regrets, Urian. Nothing That Lives Is Immune From That Nasty Emotion. (acheron) So What? You Want Me To Go Kiss And Make Up? (urian) Hardly. But I Want You To Set Aside Your Own Hurt And Anger To See Clearly For A Minute. This Isn’t About You And Your Father Anymore Than It’s About Me And Nick Hating Each Other Over Something We Can’t Change. This Is About Saving The Lives Of A Million Innocent People.

What Can I Get You? (wulf) How About Someone Else To Have This Kid For Me? (cassandra)

But His Pantheon Would Have Survived. (kat) Would It? Fate Is Never That Simple. It Doesn’t Go In A Straight Line, And The More You Try To Circumvent It, The Worse You Make It On Yourself. Fate Will Not Be Denied. Sin Would Have Lost His Powers By Another Means, At Another Time And Place. And Whoever Took Them Then Might Have Killed Him.
