Because it was a deities be damned curse and the rule books go out the windows with those things because they're more powerful than any of us in here and if anyone in this City wants to claim that doesn't scare the shit out of them then they're a liar.
Remember how it feels right now and how much you don't like it and that's going to help you the next time, because you don't want to be here again, do you?
I'm always here, Jack. I'm always here because I was made this way. I was killed for it and made again. I have a piece of it inside me, like a fucking reminder. You have your nightmares, I have this.
I make every ill in the universe my responsibility. I try to take care of everyone in my life while pushing everyone away because I have an over active guilt complex that begs to be feed.
I don't sleep, I keep desperately busy trying to hide from the memories because I don't yet know how to deal with them except to die over and over again, until I've bled 1392 times in the desperate effort to balance the scales of blood that will never be equal, until I learn to forgive myself and let go of the past.
I'm not there yet, Cori. In the meantime, it's just bearable. Sometimes more bearable due to the love and care of close friends, sometimes near intolerable due to the hard words of misunderstandings.
Blue's strong and he has you, that'll help work through all this.
No. There was a time when I would and did but it doesn't really solve anything. Much more worth it to stand and watch the stars above, feel the warm spring breeze on my body, smell the hints of leaves, flowers and grass waking up from their long winter's sleep.

Cori, you know as well as I do how this works. You don't get complacent. You can't afford to.

So we don't do it again.
I remember every metallic taste of it, Corinthian and I know I'll fight tooth and nail not to go back to living that horror show again.
