RE: A Public Announcement - James Longbottom - 06-08-2020
James looked up rather startled, for the man suddenly sounded so different. "Sorry..." James muttered, a little scared.

Elijah shook his head. "No no.. I'm sorry, you couldn't know. It's just.. I was there at the time so it's.. very personal for me."

"Did you hang 'im?" James asked, not helpfully.
RE: A Public Announcement - Elijah Crane - 06-08-2020
Elijah shook his head quickly. "They have someone special for that, and I wouldn't have been able to. He was a friend of mine. It was a painful shock, he never showed any violent tendencies before. It's like.." He thought a moment. "Think of a friend, someone who would never harm a soul. And one day you find out they had an entire different side where they were being bullied and killed their bully. "

James thought but he didn't have any real friends, and certainly none that weren't violent or mean. He couldn't really relate. "Why didn't you know he was bullied?"
RE: A Public Announcement - Elijah Crane - 06-08-2020
Elijah sat down and looked away sadly. "I had my hunch that he was. I mean, I knew his father was really harsh on him and he could bully him a little though he meant well. I didn't have a clue what was really going on though, he kept a huge part of his life a secret from everyone that wasn't a part of it.'

"But he didn't kill, Mr. Ward." said James, getting more and more confused.
RE: A Public Announcement - Elijah Crane - 06-08-2020
He shook his head. "There are worse people out there and he was trapped in a bad situation with someone worse than his father."
RE: A Public Announcement - James Longbottom - 06-08-2020
James looked at him with big eyes and was quiet while he thought. "His mother?" he whispered.
RE: A Public Announcement - Elijah Crane - 06-08-2020
Elijah rubbed the back of his neck. "No..he.. made friends with someone who turned out to be quite bad."
