It doesn't let on that there's been research that went into this, a hoarse argument with Montgomery while the latter still had Gabriel's blood on his hands from stitching his wounds and eyelid shut to try and save his sight to stop him from bringing his fury to bear on everyone Atem knew and held dear, the research journals pored over in the dark office in the depths of the Prison, the workput into constructing the closest the peninsula could get to a modern artificial heart - but none of that is important now. That was business that would be dealt with entirely between him and Atem.]
I won't kill him - God knows I only kill people if they're stupid enough to try and get in my way or trying to kill me - but I will make him feel every single inch of what he did to me. What he made me relive. Hell, I won't even blind him, which is far greater a kindness than he deserves.
