That was...kind of the problem. The fact that Tim wasn't crazy - or at least crazy within parameters appropriate to his life history - made this whole thing much harder to deal with. What was under threat this time wasn't her view of people but (more damagingly) her view of her own ability to function in a relationship. Two for two was kind of a terrible record. (Two and a half if you counted whatever had almost-happened with Mozenrath. She didn't.)

At least this time she'd held onto Tim a little longer before finding a reason to push him away.

"Don't worry, that was already in shreds way before we starting dating."
