Yes, I've been told.

[ Matter-of-fact. The sort of matter of fact that is clearly pointedly removed from emotion for a reason, though there's no bite or snap to his words. That reason isn't Fitz. ]

That is... as I said, I cannot imagine it. Nor, I admit, do I want to.

[ He'll see it. He knows that now: he will live to see it and probably live through it and beyond. His life is stretching out so far...

He doesn't know how to handle that yet. ]

Yeah, it's this American slang I picked up. I feel its just right for conveying both that something's awful but also bad to start with, you know?

A useful phrasing, then. Though I get the feeling it's a touch more rude than I'd feel comfortabls using.
