"i would love him still, even if he left me again. i would love him through several lifetimes, i think, and i would love him in every world."
So then it was a curse, existence. Life was a death sentence, after all, and even the sweetest of loves would still always end.
࿐ Isn't forever a terrible blessing, and a terribly blissful curse?”
── .✦ “Things are so much sweeter when they have an ending; things are so much more painful when they can be ripped away.”
── .✦ "What life could we have had where I never told you that I loved you?" Brandt begged, and it was wretched, and undignified, and all of it, every breath of it, for Fox. "What kind of life could have ever been enough if I never confessed that I would love you, Fox, for every day that I walked this earth?”
── .✦ To love, to forgive, to lose, to live it was always a choice, and thus, the fact that he was a mortal was finally one worth celebrating. Because it would end!
── .✦ To have lived is, as he tells it, reward enough in itself.
” what life could we have had where i never told you that I love you? What kind of life could have ever been enough if i never confessed that i’d love you, fox, for every day that I walked this earth? Immortality is empty without you, eternal youth is nothing, fox, without you.”
