I've seen men who I thought were incorruptible stoop to my level, and all that comes of it is more blood than even I want to deal with. Even if it's necessary, even if it's right, that doesn't make it easy or good. It was easier to ignore when I was posturing for Logan, but I'm worn out with the shit I've gone through. I don't want to ignore you forever, but I'm tired of losing you right when I'm trying my hardest to believe in you."
