Angel
You don't need a curse to make sure you're miserable. Having a soul makes you miserable, whether it's tied to you permanently or loosely, because of who you are. I know those with souls who feel no guilt for the terrible acts they do. The vampire that chases me is one of them. Whether you deserve it or not, you should have one.
I will keep that in mind for when we get to that.
I'd be doing much better were people who dislike or hunt me were not present in this charming little town. I dislike needing other people's assistance, especially physical, as much as I appreciate your offering it because the truth is - and always was, even as a vampire - that if Klaus and I end up in a room together, I have no physical control over what happens to me. I also dislike the incessant need to consume food. I'd forgotten how it kept coming up every day, so many times a day.
No one can help me with that no, but I appreciate your help on the rest. I never sought an extraordinary life. I sought a normal one, with love and regular hardship.
