  Summary

  Listen. Victor didn't need any outside interference to have his own life ruined, and in this setting the Creature/Adam realizes that before he does any murder, decides to stick around to watch the show, and stumbles into the first human kindness to his actual face that he's ever received.

  Victor wants it to End.

  Gytha wants to Put A Ring On That.

  Father Thomas just wants to know why it all has to be happening in his parish.
