I can see that. I'm glad it wasn't him. Most of the male recruiters, they go in friendly and if it doesn't work, they have ways of forcing it.
Which would've gone real bad, with the Obscurus and all.
[She thinks about that for a moment. About the destruction to the Barge. About how destroyed Credence would have been.]
I'm sorry, too, Quentin.
I'm not lonely. [She is. She is hideously, terrifyingly lonely. If she wasn't, she wouldn't need to say she wasn't. But she has her pride.] But he's never had anyone really in his corner. And a pack would always be. That's why I adopted him.
Plus he's a pretty cute kid. I want to see him have a life now that his bitch mother's not around him.
