[ She takes the steps back, firm, that roll of shoulders and the flat way she places her steps that land, shoulder width apart, ready for - something, anything. Always. ]
Because in the best case scenario, everything you do is pointless, nothing changes and you just wasted your time. In the worst, when you finally manage to execute someone who does matter, you bring down war but to people that never even had a chance to defend themselves because you thought you would be enough to protect them, you thought it would be better this way. It isn't, it never was, and you can't spare them and you never could. Then they will hate you all the more for thinking you were God to their prayers.
