[There's a lot of things he wants to say to her, but it's hard to put them into words. He doesn't know what to tell this poor girl out of time.
He reaches out and puts his hand over her closed hand.]
No one sent you here, Thomasin. When I was going over your profile, I wanted to meet you because you deserve better. You deserve a chance to learn, and grow, and to have another option.
[He takes his hand back, curls his fingers in but keeps his hand close to hers.]
...I don't want to sound like him. That's not what I'm trying to say at all, I'm not trying to tempt you or lure you into anything, I just. Want you to have the chance to see that there's so much life to live, that there's so much that you can do.
I was about your age the first time that I heard someone say people like me were going to burn in Hell. It...scared me. But it didn't change me.
No one controls you. What you think, how you act, what you feel, all of it is your own. "Contract" or no contract, you've already faced one iteration of the devil here. And if Phillip tries to get you, I'll let you control the laser next time.
