(You don't know how much your kindness means to me. I'm sorry I can't express my gratitude in the ways that you can. They just... don't come naturally to me like they do you.)
My favorite patron! I love when you stop by. I'll slip you a free glass of moonshine next time. (I know a mask when I see one. I wish you would relax a bit more--realize that you have a right to privacy. You don't have to pretend around me.)
Howdy, break a leg out there today! (Selfish prick...)
Aw, your gimmick is so cute! I'm sure the kids love it. Got any leftover candy for the company's star player? (If you don't have anything to offer me, you best leave me alone.)
You're certainly fun to play with~ Even if you're obnoxious. You're the only real person in this place who can keep up with me. (Don't get too close. It's better that way.)
(He's just like me, if you think about it! If Mr.Brusque can do all that cool stuff, maybe I can too!)
(Now THAT'S a kid with some real potential. Haven't seen a spark like that in a looong time...)
I wish I knew....anything about you. Nathan talks about you a lot, but that whole "hero" thing can't be all there is. Who are you?
I love you more than I'm capable of putting into words. I hope you can understand even if I don't know how to say it, my little sunshine boy.
You were everything to me, and I- I miss you every day. I'll find out what happened to you, I promise.
(I also just...god, I wish you would've looked my way more often when you were still here. It's so-- it's selfish, I know, but why talk about my light all the time if you didn't even look at it? M- Maybe I'm being too harsh...)
Coolest sister ever!!! When she gets older she's gonna kick ASS I absolutely know it. I mean, I'm a shining example of the fact that us Nguyens just fuckin' rule.
Psst-- Hey, if you don't tell Nate I'll tell ya about all our ghost adventures!
FJDD DFFI U'M OGNNA THROW UP YOURE SO COOL!!!!!!!!!
Hey, kid! Don't let nobody get you down, you're doing great! I'm so proud of you!
(Something seems...very off about you. Not malicious, just...I dunno how to describe it. What are you hiding?)
I'm sorry I failed you, but I promise I'm going to make it up to you.
WOULD.
Just stay out of my way and we'll be fine. I don't need to be dragging other people into this, but if you're going to be so stubborn at least have the decency to stay behind me.
(I don't want you to get hurt, you have to stay away from me.)
You need to loosen up a little, bud! I know you've still got that firestorm in ya. Why're you so afraid to show it?
(I hope you're okay. I'd give anything to make sure you're okay.)
It's really best you stay out of this. I'm going to fix my mistakes, I promise.
If you'd just give me a chance, you'd see what I'm capable of! Or- or what I hope I'm capable of...
My little sunshine boy! Everything is okay, I promise. So long as you're safe and happy, just know I'm okay.
Whatever you say!
(But I do wish you would tell me more...)
The smartest man I ever knew, he was the glue that held this family together. I'll find him one day. I'll make it all up to him. I can't fill his shoes, I know I can't.
Sometimes the way he acts...concerns me. Nathan doesn't know his limits. That's not always a good thing.
( "You said you were the strongest man in the world. Liar." ) /
I have so much to thank you for. I wouldn't be dead without you- I'd be something much worse, literally an endlessly rotting husk, stuck watching myself decay. I'd tell you if you'd come back . /
( We used to be so close. The empty space between us is so tangible. Sometimes I feel like if I destroy myself enough, I'll be able to bridge that gap, tuck myself back under your wing. Would you come back if I needed you, again? I do .Please, Nathan, I do. )
("Watch over her. Teach her to be strong.")
I could never tell you, and perhaps that's for the best, but I am glad I found you. I'm glad you're safe, I'm glad you're far away from him. But now you need to stay far away from me. I love you, I promise I love you, but I need to keep you safe. I hope you never hear me say any of this, I hope you never hear from me again-- for your sake. As much as it breaks my heart.
When you're older, you'll understand this was for the better. I'm so sorry.
("Goodbye, Rosemary.")
