  You go to an intimate gathering, just friends. A guy you’ve never seen before introduces himself. He has everything you’re looking for; just a well-adjusted and wholesome human being. You’re also everything he’s looking for and so you spend your lives together. Everything is so great that you can’t imagine living without him. He dies a decade before you do, leaving you to pick up the pieces.

    to quote my favourite game

    The pain of your absence is sharp and haunting, and I would give anything not to know it; anything but never knowing you at all.

    i could try to make peace with that
