"I didn’t want to come here. You made me." - and this from grumpy teen or kid edie, because i love this child
“ —- no, don’t say that. ” that is the one sentence he doesn’t ever want to hear coming from his daughter again. he knew children were like that, no matter how old they grew, they were going to question everything, and want the opposite of what’s happening. he was trying to give edie a good life, a simple but better life, so that she wouldn’t lead a life similar to his. it even hurt more, especially considering his situation with paralysis, edie was a miracle child, and they tried so hard to actually have her.
in all honesty ? his heart is broken because he said the exact same thing to his own mother when he was a kid.
“ edie, listen. whatever y’do, whatever y’say, me an’ mom are gonna be proud a’ya. ” a quick smile, “ ‘sides, we made ya so y’can take over th’world an’ show what yer made of. ”
THIS IS HOW YOU LOSE HER. [ x ]@trickshotlegacy / @rapiertwo.
