I'M NOT COMING BACK FOR A WHILE. I'M SORRY.

I'M SCARED I'LL BE STUPID AND HURT YOU AGAIN, SO I'M STAYING BACK. FOR YOUR SAFETY.

JUST ONE MISTAKE, AND I ALREADY SEE MYSELF AS A MONSTER. ALL IT TAKES IS ONE MISTAKE. ONE SCREW-UP.

YOU CAN SEE THIS, CAN YOU?

I'M /FAR/ FROM NORMAL, YOU'VE SEEN ME!

AND THE SAFE PART'S IFFY.

I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT IT. NOW I PROMISED TO AVOID TRYING TO TALK TO YOU BECAUSE I KNOW I'LL SCREW UP AGAIN.

WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY IS I'M NOT SAFE. I'M VERY CLOSE TO DOING SOMETHING. LAST TIME I'M ADDING TO THIS.

-------------------

Handsome. Handsome? Pfft,

I need to do this myself, and it's already been done. I'm sorry.

That handsome part made me laugh, that was a pretty good joke

And hopefully I'll be around to do that.

Right, right.

You're /kinda/ distracting me from doing it, you know. /nm.

As you say that, what song comes on? Yours.

But I'm not going back into chat.

Fortunately I've gotten halfway done. The rest I can't do because you're distracting me.

I'm not joining any chats. I told you this. -ASHTON.

I'M NOT THAT IMPORTANT. SLEEP IF YOU NEED TO, A WASTE OF SPACE LIKE ME SHOULDN'T BE WASTING YOUR TIME AS WELL.

GOOD LUCK WITH THAT.

QUIT LYING.

-------------------

It's done. This is as far as I can go.

I'm... not letting you guys break through to me. I messed up, I deserve this. -John

Good luck wi th tha t . I'll do this s all night if I h ave to .

• .. no.

No. I won't.

Not this time.

Even me trying to be "good" isn't gonna fix what I did .

IT ISN'T, AND I HAVEN'T FORGIVEN MYSELF. I WON'T FOR A WHILE. I HURT SOMEONE I LOVE, I DESERVE THIS PUNISHMENT.

I STILL HURT YOU!!

GO AHEAD, TRY. WASTE YOUR TIME ON SOMETHING LIKE ME.

IT MAY WORK, IT MAY NOT!
