The most selfish thing,

[ said after a moment, quiet, exhausted, ]

is that I'm still glad you're here. Even though everything is basically awful. Even though we keep getting killed. Even though you have to watch us get killed, too. I'm not letting any freaky comas or anything take you no matter how bad things are or how tired you get. I need you. You're mine, too.

Re: day 225

Re: day 225

Re: day 225

[audacity]

At...least there's that.

It doesn't hurt you, does it?
