[ He holds his hands out as that seems like that's that as far as what he needed to go over with her. His hearing is gone and now he has to figure out how long that will last for, but whatever. Whatever.
Vincent can, at least, say that he achieved his goal in convincing Claudia that the best step forward would be destroying their world. In the end, it seems they both get what they want.
The words that God gave them will be true - the world will be destroyed and the chosen allowed to live eternal. It's just they'll live eternally on Etraya. Details.
But isn't the trouble always in the details? ]
Watch out -- she might be mad at you.
[ Vincent decides to say that much. It's as much of a warning as he needs to give her. His shoulders give a small shrug as he steps back; he intends to return to his quarters to sleep off what's happened to him. There isn't anything else he can do, anyway.
As much as he schemed to kill her, the two of them have always been how they've been. That's the easiest way that he can put it. He views her as a child still seeking love; with her Sight, she probably knew how much Vincent was working against her yet never tried to kill him until she did. He can't manipulate or make her feel guilty for what she did; it's a waste of effort to do either, so why bother?
Neither one of them know how to hold onto their anger. They just know how to have grudges. ]
