Re: Erik/Alison
Death eventually comes to everyone, but I'd rather they had full lives first. Or didn't have to be afraid to be who they are. What we are is special, it's extraordinary. Born or made. But some are treated as heroes, and some are treated as monsters.
A pleasure to meet you then, sister.
Yes, you understand. My friend is an idealist, or he has to be, he has to be unsullied. They all look up to him, and it's important for them to feel safe with someone. [...] But his vision, his plea for compromise, it meant they were unprepared for the brutality of what hate and fear could do. Pretty words are all well and good in theory, but they don't stop bullets.
