My...son, for lack of a better word, is leaving relatively shortly to go participate in a war. I'm scared as hell, but I can't tell him not to go. Because I know I would. I'm trying really, really hard to make what time he has left with us not suck.
My other son, for lack of a better word, has completely vanished from our lives. I have no idea what's going on with him. The only time I see him is when he occasionally pops up to be unreasonably angry with pretty much everyone. And I have no idea why.
Something about mutants. Every earth reacts differently to people who can bend shit with their minds or set things on fire or walk through walls. In ours they happen to put them to work for the government dealing with what goes bump in the night.
In John's they tend to be treated like second class citizens. At best. And someone's decided to actually do something about this. I don't know how to hope it ends. I just want him to come home.
I stay away to try and keep from causing shit. To try and not dump all the crap in my life all over the people I love because you're dealing with monsters and shit.
I'm just dealing with having broken the man I love. Didn't figure anyone wanted to deal with that.
That's not an excuse anymore either. Afraid of rejection? After 9 months? Warren, if I haven't kicked your ass yet, I'm not going to start now. Although goddamn, do you make it tempting with those weeping floods of self-pity.
Yeah, John's leaving. We knew that. From the beginning. Please, please stop erasing his reasons to come back.
Also, I told your Henry earlier that you, he and other Henry are welcome to camp out on 713 if you need to, to get away from Walter. It's got it's own little defence system that'll keep Walter out.
Yeah, I can understand that. It's probably worse, too, if it happens to affect other things inside. Know it was for me when I was still infected.
From what I can tell, Liz, you got a lot of shit to be angry about at the moment, so it's understandable. Being angry, I mean. Also being scared of it.
Do you think maybe working some of it off might help?

So no, I'm not OK.
...I'm sorry, you didn't need all that.

Because I'm afraid of rejection. Figure if I don't ask, I can't be.
Jean-Paul's clean. For me. And it's like living with a robot that could take or leave me, like it doesn't matter. And John's leaving and...
And I sound like a whiny bitch so I guess he was right.

It scares me a little. How angry I can get.
