A lot of teenagers act like they're invincible. Nobody actually wants it to be that way. Most people wake up every day knowing somewhere in the back of their minds that it'll be over someday, that there's a light at the end of the tunnel where things won't be as complicated. Where it won't hurt. Where they can finally just rest.I don't get that

You learn to live with it, because you have no choice.

[autophoenix]

And that's fair how exactly? Why me? Why do I have to be the one who has to learn to live with watching everyone I care about die, knowing that it's never gonna be me.

[traptinacoffin]

It isn't fair.

[autophoenix]

Yeah. I've had the life's not fair speech before. Elle made sure I got it pretty much every time I talked to her.

[traptinacoffin]

She's good at that one.

[autophoenix]

Was. She was good at that one.

[traptinacoffin]

Whichever.

[autophoenix]

I don't even know why I'm worrying about this now. It didn't come up. It's not ... I deal. I deal daily. Today shouldn't be different. I've got way bigger issues than living forever to worry about.

Like the fact that Peter lied to me because of you.

[traptinacoffin]

Yes, I suppose he did do that.

[autophoenix]

And that doesn't mean anything to you, does it? You don't even care.

[traptinacoffin]

It's hardly my responsibility what Peter does or doesn't.

[autophoenix]

Except when you're the one responsible for how he's acting. He never would have lied to me if it weren't for you. Not ever.

[traptinacoffin]

He's an adult. He makes his own decisions.

[autophoenix]

Yeah, I thought that too. Until you came around.

[traptinacoffin]

Precisely what are you accusing me of?

[autophoenix]

Being a bad influence, for starters.
