I think I'm being selfish.

The more I think of it, the more I think I am. I mean, I'm here, in this place, where it's not a crime to have powers, where nobody's going to shun you or imprison you, or kill you, or throw you in camps, where I can be who I want to be and help as much as I can without having to hide myself. It's great, right? I've found an amazing girl and I've got a job where I can save lives and...

I'm still being selfish.

Because even though horrible stuff happens back home, who knows what would happen if I wasn't there? Am I changing the future by staying here? I know they say that you go back to the moment you left, but what if it changes me in some little way, and everything turns out different, and everything is just ruined? I mean, I should be trying to get back. I'm going complacent. I'm going against everything I said I'd do, you know? Save the world. And what am I doing? I'm looking after myself.

So yeah, I'm being selfish. Or I'm hiding. I'm not sure which.
