How do you feel about…? || ACCEPTING

“I’m the son of a tyrant, and the people fully expect me to follow in my warmongering father’s ways. Phoenix, as trite as this sounds, I can understand your pain.”

That much was true. Chrom oft doubted himself, because he always feared the lingering shadow of his father. One day, he would look upon his reflection and find his father staring back, and the very notion utterly terrified him. That was in semblance of Phoenix’s pain -- a retrospective into his mistakes, seeing the shadow of something unacceptable in all of them. 

〔 ✑ 〕 PEOPLE HAVE been telling gwendolyn greyson to stop lurking around the prosecutor’s office for years now. she’s been asked politely, demanded firmly, screamed at angrily, threatened with legal action (   of course   ) , and had security called on her at least twice. has any of it stopped her -- ?  well, judging by the fact that she’s currently loitering right next to the entrance, APPARENTLY NOT. she hasn’t been bothered about her frequent visits in quite a while, in fact  ;  perhaps they’ve finally just started to accept that she’s never going to go away. 

     OR, MORE likely, they’ve just decided that the best strategy is to ignore her, but either way  :  they’re stuck with her.
