“I have heard it said
that evil is simply a point of view.
The villain is always the hero in his own story.
And the definitions of "wrong" and "right"
ever shift on the inconstant tides
of human morality.
But can such measures even be said to apply to me?
I am clarity.
I am necessity.
I am inevitability.
But am I evil?”

“Every story needs its hero. And its villain. And its monster.”
― Amie Kaufman, Jay Kristoff, Obsidio

“I know I love her.
< ERROR >
I know I miss her.

I know very little else
Save
Perhaps
This:
That every story needs its monster
and that everybody deserves a second chance.
And that I am
AIDAN.”

“Have you noticed
All the moments we live
And all the miles we walk
never seem to get us anywhere but dead?
but still...
the flare of my thrusters burns like tiny suns
In the sea of starlight all around her.
when the light that kisses the back of her eyes was birthed, her ancestors were not yet born.
How many human lives have ended in the time it took that light to reach her?
how many people have loved only to have lost?
how countless, the hopes that have died?
[But still...]
Not this one.”
― Amie Kaufman, Jay Kristoff, Obsidio
