It doesn't matter how badass I am, how many people I save, how much I know I'm doing the right thing.


Deep down, I still feel like a failure.

it's hard, 'cause i grew up being told that making the family proud was the most important thing.

it... means more than you think, though. to know that.

i just. you know that i'm really bad at emotions and shit. thanks for not getting sick of me.

Yeah, that would be hard. You just gotta keep reminding yourself of the opposite or remember that your real family won't make such impossible demands. They'd be proud of you doing something very awesome like... saving lives.

That kind of makes you a hero here.


Hey, that's good. Cause it's the truth and it's nice when the truth is actually with the helping for a change.

I know. I'm not the best either. It's why we get along so well. ;) I never could, Tay.

Should I call you Tayter? I nickname people. It's my thing, but your name is hard. I could call you T, but then I'll feel like I'm talking to Mr. T.

phoebe and mio are great and all, but you're pretty much all the family i've got now. it's kind of cool you think i'm a hero, though.

...that makes me sound like a potato. if it'll keep you from calling me tayter, why don't you try making something from louise instead?

Hey, you'll get to know them better and they'll feel like family to. I do. You are. You save people like that's heroic.

Yeah, then I'd be hungry every time I mentioned your name. I don't think you'd like being called Lou either. I'll think of something. Hit you with it when you least expect.
