the guy who was
a hero
"Magnus tells me I was a hero", he said. "And I see on your face when you’re looking at me that you’re searching for that guy. The guy you knew who was a hero, who did great things. I don’t remember doing those things. I don’t know if that makes me not a hero anymore. But I’d like to try to be that guy again. That guy who gets to kiss you because he earned it. If you’ll be patient enough to let me try."

"I’ve always been the one who needed you more than you needed me. [...] All you’ve ever needed is your pencils and imaginary worlds. So many times I’ve had to say things six, seven times before you’d even respond, you were so far away. And then you’d turn to me and smile that funny smile, and I’d know you’d forgotten all about me and just remembered - but I was never mad at you.
Half of your attention is better than all of anyone else’s." |
