“ you are mistaken, nipoz, fundamentally so. the only likeness we share is our past and shared despair. but i will not give up. i will not allow myself to grow dark like you. yes, i have made more mistakes than anyone in this world, but owning up to it, as you put it, does not mean giving in. i will no longer hide my mistakes, but rather, learn from them. make no mistake: i will always reject you. “
“ and you will leave oscar out of our quarrel. “
