[ the response is quick. if he has any sympathy for her last comment, there's zero sign of it. ]
That's absolutely what I'm saying.
What, did he just turn him and release him into the wild? Do you have any idea what happened to him after that?

Our vampires don't have to drink blood, Josh!
I've met vampires who were clean and didn't think that fingerless gloves were the height of fashion-
Don't you dare judge him! You weren't there!
Don't you dare judge him! You weren't there!
Are you saying that Aidan is perfect? That you don't make excuses for him? At least Mitchell doesn't drink blood!
Because you can't even consider that he might have had a reason for it! That he didn't do it with a song in his heart and a spring in his step.
I am not a monster! And Mitchell fights every day to not drink blood, don't you dare judge him!
So? So, I'm a ghost! I don't know exactly what you're implying with that, but I've never killed anyone, you know!
It bloody well does matter I'm dead. Why do people seem to think that they can just glaze over the fact that when I touch people it's like touching a cold air generator?
[This is not your fault, Josh.
(well maybe a little)]
Believe me it would be easier if I wasn't, but you need to reexamine your definition of monster. Just because there are horror movies where ghosts crawl out of tellies doesn't mean that we all are like that. There are plenty of horror movies where serial killers trap people in basements or what have you.

[ it's at least 50% his fault.
it's bizarre how much this echoes one of his early confrontations with sally. one he was actually right about, in the end, but that doesn't change the fact that it brings a sense of deja vu — and makes him feel like kind of an asshole for it.
there's a slight delay, then a switch to voice. ]
No, you're right. I'm sorry, sometimes I forget I'm not talking to Sally. Which you'd think would be impossible, given the Britishisms and the lack of invasive questioning about my sex life, but—
You're not her. You're not even the same— [ thing... she is? ] Kind of ghost. I shouldn't assume you are.

[She switches to voice too, because, well.
Because.]
The worst thing I've done is when I told Owen-
Well, I think I drove him mad. But he deserved it. And that wasn't me being a monster.

That wasn't you being a monster. [ the repetition is agreement, and then some; saying it more firmly, just to make sure she's sure of it.
josh isn't completely sure if annie's from earlier on, or if she's really nothing like sally. he's starting to think he and george have way less in common than he originally thought, so it's not out of the question. ]
And if he was anything like Danny, you're right. He deserved it.

I think they're probably the same, aren't they?
He pushed me down the stairs. Because he found a pair of panties that he had never seen before. Because he thought I was cheating.
[It's easy to tell Josh this. Because Josh is like George, and George was there.]
Then he saw me, later. When I was a ghost. He told me I was nothing.

They're the same in all the ways that count, apparently.
[ it's easy to hate owen, if only by proxy. josh had stopped aidan from killing danny - but that was a long time ago. he's not entirely sure what would happen now. ]
You're not a monster, and you're not nothing. You're here. [ his tone is confident, but there's a good dose of regret in it. ] I'm sorry I upset you.

[The apology means more to her than she suspects Josh realizes.
Or maybe he knows.]
I'm sorry I brought it up.

I'm sorry I brought it up.
