you on your way. just keep going. 

i love you. you don’t have to say it back, though.

look, sometimes people drift apart. and i don’t want that to happen to us, okay?

this is my fault.

our family doesn’t run from things.

i don’t think you have a choice, kiddo.

look, call me when you can. okay? i love you.

we all have powers.

you’ve got to say “i love you” back.

got a lot going through your head, i’m sure. you’re gonna be fine.

hey, bud. you okay?

please open the door. (name), i can see your shadow moving around.

i’ll always have my family.

i’m sorry. i can’t do this without you.

hey, it’s okay. we’re gonna figure it out.

they’re counting on me.

you can’t think about saving the world. you have to think about saving one person.

of course you can stay.

i see this spark in you. it’s amazing. it’s why i push you, but… it’s yours. whatever you choose to do with it, you’ll be great.

i let you down, man, i let you down.

mom, i’ve gotta go.

yeah, i’m okay. you’re probably busy, so…

how am i supposed to save the whole world?

(name), you’re gonna get yourself killed.

can i sleep here tonight?

that’s all it is, (name). a leap of faith.

look, i know i don’t always do what you need me to do. or say what you need me to say, but i’m… i see this spark in you. it’s amazing. it’s why i push you, but… it’s yours. whatever you choose to do with it, you’ll be great.

one thing i know for sure: don’t do it like me. do it like you. 

i wanna do what you asked. i really do. i’m sorry.

when were you going to tell me?

you can’t keep doing this to yourself.

that’s…a lot of blood.

can you walk?

please don’t lie to me.

you were supposed to leave.

i’m not going anywhere without you.

shh, it’s okay. it was just a dream.

there was nothing more you could have done.

it wasn’t your fault.

this is all my fault.

you aren’t acting like yourself.

i’m never going to let [her/him/them] hurt you again.

you’re hurting me.

don’t ever do that again.

go to hell.

please don’t cry.

you have to stay awake.

i wish i could take the pain away.

you could have died.

hey – stay with me.

it’ll be over soon.

did you ever love me?

i’m sorry. i can’t do this anymore.

things won’t always hurt this bad.

you passed out.

how much have you had?

i’m okay. it’s all fine.

it’s not okay! you’re not fine!

let me get you something for the pain.

it’s nothing. it’s just a bruise.

it’s clearly not nothing.

have you been to the doctor?

i didn’t mean the things i said.

i thought we meant something.

people who are okay don’t act like this.

you don’t have to go through this by yourself.

i don’t want you to be alone.

please don’t regret me.

i heard you crying.

you need to get some rest.

when was the last time you ate something?

i’m worried about you.

did you have another nightmare?

[name], there’s nobody there.

i want to be happy but i don’t think i deserve it.

please talk to me.

why are you mad at me?

alcohol isn’t going to solve your problems.

don’t leave me.

did you do this to yourself?

it’s breaking my heart to see you like this.

tell me what’s wrong.

tell me how to make it better.

why don’t you care?

get the hell away from me.

please don’t do this.

i can’t believe that you lied to me.

just…stay for the night.

you obviously can’t be trusted to take care of yourself, so let me do it for you.

you can’t die. i won’t let you.

just hang on, okay?

hold my hand if you need to.

i’m sorry.

why do you have a gun?

don’t panic.

just breathe.

you’re bleeding.

i’m trying to stop the bleeding.

you’ve been crying, i can tell.

you should have told me sooner.

i wanted to tell you in person.

a phone call would’ve been nice.

i hate you.

don’t talk. think. it’s a good rule of thumb for life.

growing up is getting used to the world.

you don’t get to do that. to… to come into somebody’s life, make them care, and then just check out.   

you gotta do what’s right, baby. you promise me, you’ll always do what’s right. it’s so easy to do the wrong thing in this world.

did you talk back to (name)?

you can’t talk back to people like that. 

listen to me. okay, just listen to my voice.  

we survive this by pulling together, not apart.

you are gonna beat this world. i know you will.

(name), go inside. now, please.

you were unconscious yesterday. 

you are smart, and you are strong, and you are so brave, and i love you.

just rest. just one more day.

that kind of honesty is rare and brave.

you’re so good. you’re my sweet boy.

thank you. i heard him laughing in there. almost forgot what that sounded like.

you do it for him. that boy’s been through too much.

no more kid stuff.

every day he woke up and told himself, “rest in peace. now get up and go to war.”

this group is broken.

i wish you could have the childhood i had, but that’s not gonna happen. 

that’s what it is now, right? home?

if we do this, the people that we were, the world that we knew, is dead.

i don’t need you to protect me anymore. i can take care of myself.

it’s still safe with me.

i want to show you the new world, (name). i want to make it a reality for you.

but keeping our humanity? that’s a choice. 

now, if you’ll excuse me, i’m just gonna sleep some more. 

but today… i saw what they could do, what we could do, if we work together. 

your secret’s safe with me.   

i had this feeling. it took me a while to remember what it was.
