[ but what if you've never had any choices? he doesn't say that, but it's the truth. he's never been allowed to make them. heaven is the most freedom he's ever known. coward. you can't even fight for yourself.]

... thank you, Gamaliel. [ quietly. ] And...I'm sorry, that that's a feeling that has crossed your heart - it is an awful way to be.

[ to feel pointless. ]

I... have not yet lost all hope. [ but boy is he getting close to it! haha yay bad end. ] So, I will do the best that I can to make the right choice. Whatever that choice may be.

It's fine. [ very quick and dismissive ] I was a teenager, which is honestly the stupidest age to be.

[ she looks 15. ]

I'm going to be blunt, Taair. I don't think locking yourself away is the right choice. I know there's more to it than that, but it sounds like that kind of sacrifice would just delay the inevitable anyway.

Reasons. [ repeating it ] It's hard to explain. I guess the short of it is that this is the age the idiot I'm in love with knew me best as. And he never got to grow up past that age.

It's... [ hm. ] It's not okay, and it wasn't for a long time, but it's not anything to feel sorry for anymore.
