It... has a chance of it going that way, I will not lie to you about that. However... you're trying, and maybe that is more than you can say for about your mother.
... I think it would only hurt me. Physically. It might make me feel better emotionally but I do not think that is a worthwhile exchange.
Uh, wow, yeah, no. she did not try at all. She gave me to a crazy psychopath when I was a baby and pretty much didn't look back. Every so often I'd get a postcard, from some other planet...if I was really lucky, she remembered how to spell my name. She never wanted me. But I want you, I always wanted you. I just...make mistakes and then don't wanna admit I made'em.
You could wear a boxing glove. Or get one of those foam bats. Obviously I'm more into the foam bat idea, but you can punch me with a boxing glove, that's cool.
[She thought to scoff, but didn't. He likely wouldn't take her thoughts, that she would have liked to have actually inflicted pain, a fraction of what he'd put her through, as anything more than her "acting just like him."]
Offer's there, sweetheart. I just...I wanna make you feel better. I know ya don't believe a lot of what I say, but you gotta believe me, I want you to feel better. I want ya to be happy. I wanna give ya a real childhood and shit. 'Cause you deserve one. You didn't really get one, and I hate that. I really do.
I believe you. [She didn't say anything else, aside from that. Her childhood was dead and gone -- no chance of getting that back. At least happiness was an easier goal to attain. Not that she needed him to be happy, but... her attempts at letting him know that hadn't gone over well.]
[In his muddled state, he's sure of that. It'll be fine. The past is the past, they don't have to worry about any of that here. It'll be fine.]
I'm...uh...I'm, I should head to bed. You probably wanna, too. It's late, I been keeping ya up. But...I dunno. Kinda glad we...talked about some of the stuff we did.
You...you can talk to me, ya know. About...your mom and stuff. It's not like there's anybody else to talk about'er.
