[Elena is just going to stand there dumbfounded for a moment. Because clearly this is the first honest thing that Kyp has ever said to her, taking into account everything that's come to light in the last few minutes.
And in a way, she gets it.
She wants to be loved, just like anyone else. Maybe that's Kyp's problem. He wants to feel that, but without a family, he has to get it from somewhere else. And because of what they are, stealing another person's relationship is...easier than making them yourselves.
It's also wrong.]
It's not real. It's a lie.
[They're someone else's family. Someone else's life.
And then they're all standing up for her, and Archer gives a speech that she wasn't even sure he was capable of, and not even the slight vulgarity in it can take away from anything.
When he comes over to her, she moves to hug him. She doesn't deserve it, doesn't deserve anything from him anymore, because she doubted a lot of things, made a lot of mistakes.
She only spares one last glance over at Kyp, and it's full of bitterness and regret and unfinished business.]
