Re: quicklog: wren, luke, jack
[Luke could feel Jack's gaze on him, even without looking up. If only they'd never gone to that door, if only Wren and Evie had ended up somewhere else-- anywhere else. If only Wren hadn't gone to get powers from a stranger, then she wouldn't have needed to go to another door in the first place; so many if onlys. Going over them all could drive someone insane. And of course they didn't get to forget, life wasn't that kind. Even when they did manage to catch a break it seemed a tiny, tiny reprieve in the face of all the bad things that came before and followed after. Things had been good, before. Holidays and family and happiness. Now, this. Death everywhere and questionable sanity. He sighed.] It's not fair. [Which was stating the obvious, but it was still true.
Forgetting would be nice. Nothing about that door was right, nothing at all. He looked up, saying nothing, but smiled at the mention of poetry on rooftops. He remembered.] No. I don't think it's really my thing. [For a moment, he hesitated.] I'll try. [Try what, he didn't specify, but maybe just trying in general, trying to be honest, would be enough.]
