... you risked everything to do it, though. You say you have no choice, but there are very few people who would go through what you have for the sake of doing what's needed.
You do what needs doing, no matter whether it's easy, or whether everyone else thinks it's right.
Al, everyone loses everything, in the end. If you live your life ruled by fear, trying to cling on to everything that is already transitory, you'll only be left with nothing and a heart full of regret.
Better to have nothing, and your own self-confidence.
I've thought about it. A lot. And the reason I'm so scared is because I'm seeing my own failures over and over. When really, I'm the one who made the mistakes.
I can't forgive Lucifer. But-
What you're doing. What you've done with him... it's working. When all of this first started, I thought he didn't truly care about you. I thought that he believed you were a toy, that he'd toss you aside when things stopped being convenient for him.
