hypothetical question

edited May 2014 in The Walking Dead
Lets say Lilly does come back. now, she really deeply regrets what she did, and for the past two years has been tearing herself apart wondering what happened to Lee and the rest of the group after she snapped. she begs Clem to forgive her and tell her what happened.

do you stay silent and not forgive her, or do you forgive her and let her know everything that happened to everyone after she left?

  • I'd probably forgive her. I don't think Lilly was ever a bad person, she was just somebody in deep depression and under enormous amounts of stress, who finally snapped. Knowing that she lives with what she did and regrets it would be enough for me, personally.

    Though, not sure what there would be to tell her about what happened after she left. She knew Lee would never leave Clementine, and the fact that he isn't there with her would pretty much answer that question for her.
  • I think I would tell her. if I were in that situation I think I would want to let all my feels out and not trap them anymore. /:
  • I'll let her know, but she has to really make me feel bad for her.

    I'll give her sympathy since I'm pretty she apologizes for it fully.Also she was under alot of stress,grief,and depression due to worrying about the group,her dad's head being squished right in front of her,and that raiders attacked their motel and derailing them.So yah i'll forgive her.

    I'd forgive her. I wonder how she'd react to the information than Ben really was the traitor and that my Lee still saved him.

    Ignore this double post. It's in both of our best interests.
  • I wouldn't necessarily *forgive* her but I would consider it. I would of course be friendlier towards her than I would if she didn't apologize and regret it... but I can't just give up on Carley like that. But overall I would tell her about what happened to Lee. She deserves to know that much...

  • Forgive her. As I've said before, the feelings behind the action are what matter most.
  • What if she doesn't even regret it? Like, what if in the long run she felt satisfied with her decision?

    Except you could pretty much tell Lilly regretted it the second she did it.

    If for some reason she didn't though, I'd be much less sympathetic.

    She killed CARLEY never!!(I was heartbroken for lee)

    But I will allow her to live as long as she goes away and runs before Clem loads her gun
  • Lee killed someone in a fit of rage too people. That's why he was going to PRISON.
  • If she physically expressed and admitted remorse for her actions, I would definitely at least hear her out and allow her to discuss how she has since coped with the event. However, I would not completely forgive her without any strings attached. I would inform her that what she did was rash and morally wrong, and that she will have to live with her guilt and memory of her crime for the rest of her life. I mean, killing Doug or Carley under such fleeting, uncertain pretenses? Neither of them had to die. If she had kept her head together, the group would have still held some very important contributors to offer protection and support.

    Also - just a little thought in my mind - Doug and Carley could have still potentially had family members or friends alive in the apocalypse. Killing Doug or Carley not only cuts off a life entirely - but it also cuts off any chance for families/friends in wonder to reunite with Doug/Carley and find a bit of closure/hope. It's a double act of atrocity in my book for this very reason.

    So in short, I would not harbor any deep bitterness for her - but I would still feel wary and closed off from her.
