She would always care that people thought she was a bad person, and she would still care even if they were just as bad as her. Compassion was such a weakness. She didn't even see most of her enemies as bad people. Kinsay was alright, they just never got along. But Kinsay must think of her as an awful person, and just didn't want to say it. "One day, when people say I'm a terrible person, it won't matter to me anymore." She shrugged, still facing away.

"Go ahead and hang the rest of those posters up. I'll be in the treehouse, which means that you can hang up posters wherever you want without ever having to see me. In case you were wondering." Which Kinsay probably was. "See you around." Her shoulders softened a bit, as if she was looking down a little. She stood there silently, still not looking at Kinsay, waiting for the sounds of footsteps going away.

People who didn't show emotion were often thought of as bad people. But really... why care about people who didn't care about you? Ash wondered if maybe Upstead would be good to talk to. Maybe she'd ask them about stuff, next time she saw them. Maybe she wouldn't. Who knew.

Kinsay stayed quiet, feeling horrible and weird and all the uncomfortable ways that she didn't like to think about. But it was hard not to think about these things when Ashley kept saying stuff like this over and over again. It made Kinsay's head spin. "You're not a terrible person," she replied quietly, feeling guiltier by the second. "You're not." Kinsay thought Ashley to be reckless and really defiant and confrontational and kind of difficult and really frustrating. But not terrible. Even though being around her made Kinsay feel terrible. It wasn't really Ashley's fault. They just couldn't be friends, it wasn't allowed.

.................................

"You don't have to say these things, just to make me feel bad," she replied, feeling upset now. Kins already felt horrible enough without Ashley having to rub it in her face every four seconds.
