" I know it was destined to go wrong. " from @dethart
"I loathe the idea of destiny." it's a low remark, gentle beneath her breath as doe eyes don't look up from what she's reading. life is so full of tragedies: of things that shouldn't have happened. maeve is a scientist - has been all her life - and it's easier to see it as simply twisted luck than part of some grand plan. she doesn't want her life - her suffering - to be decided for her... not when she's already had a lifetime for it.
but her voice stays light, flicking to the next page, as if none of this feels heavy in her chest. "but maybe we're just coded to self destruct sometimes. a bad choice or ten keeps things interesting." or, at least, it was a self fulfilling prophecy of sorts.
