Mm. That's, um. That's nice of you. [He remembers what Vriska said about all the crap she's been through in her life, but man. She's still a kid. She shouldn't have to do this. Any of this.

But, Newt gets it. Sort of. Being on the other side of things for tomorrow, he's glad Prussia will be the one doing him. He didn't think it mattered much who would do the honors, but now it's a small comfort, maybe, knowing that he can trust Prussia to make it quick. Make it as painless as possible.

Granted, last time she executed someone, she drove a sword through their stomach, but... God, add that to the list of things he doesn't want to think about tonight.]

I get that. We weren't friends, really, but I liked her okay. I tried to help her with her arm and her body and stuff. Never really showed a ton of gratitude for it, though. [He's not sure why that is. Maybe she just thought he was annoying. Usually that's the case.]

If it helps, I think she, uh, wanted to die. It's probably best that she's dying tomorrow, honestly. Poor Nino, but she's been doomed from the start with Laura as a partner, and... At least now Laura won't be around to give you guys trouble down the road. Sucks, but it's true.

[And, as for the rest, ugh. He shakes his head.] Yeah, I know. That would be the type of shit they'd pull. Guess I got unlucky with my partner, too.
