There is so much that he could respond to. Part of Damon wants to lash out again, it's what he does. The older, more grown part is hit with the heaviness of things he cannot change and how little he feels it matters if he changes now. How there is some part of him that refuses to make this choice, because if he makes it now, what does it say about all the time leading up to it?

Damon is very aware that she is right even if admitting that is something else entirely.

So instead, he just lifts a drink from the nearest bar that has not been destroyed. He lifts the entirety of the bottle, and Damon swallows down the emotions rising up through his chest. He doesn't comment on any of those things that hit too terrifyingly close to home. For once, he is not an ass either.

"You really loved him, didn't you?"

It's said quietly. "I guess it's still love maybe. You are still around."

Even if she is dead, even if she is a ghost.
