Tobias picks up one of the bullets. “Tell me,” says Eric quietly, “because I’ve always wondered. Is it your daddy who shows up in every fear landscape you’ve ever gone through?” Tobias puts the bullet into an empty chamber without looking up. up. “You didn’t like that question?” Eric says. “What, afraid the Dauntless are going to change their minds about you? Realize that even though you’ve only got four fears, you’re still a coward?” He straightens in the chair and puts his hands on the armrests. Tobias holds his gun out from his left shoulder. “Eric,” he says, “be brave.” He squeezes the trigger. I shut my eyes. ∽Moony/ Book Sniffer♫
