[He nods, digging the shovel into the dirt again. It makes sense. That creature, the other Adam, gave itself away a little too quickly - but then, it had to, didn't it? With the real Adam right in front of it, there's no way it could have fooled Ronan. If it had found him alone, though, things might have been very different. It was intelligent, Adam could tell that.]
I guess it doesn't matter now.
[They'll never know either way, and Adam is all right with that, more or less. He doesn't really want to think about what could have happened, though he knows he won't be able to stop. It's reassuring, briefly, to focus instead on the physical movement of his body, his hands and arms and back, as he digs the hole. The grave, though Adam flinches from thinking of it that way. He still doesn't want to think of this creature as a person.
He doesn't dig six feet down, but he digs enough that it'll be covered, that it won't be easily unearthed.]

I think this is good.
