Locked to Adam

I'm alone in a very large home. All of my family is gone. My last true friend - you notwithstanding because I still am not sure where we stand - is dead and you killed her. The brightness is a very dim brightening indeed.

He was doing well, but in a coma, when he went missing. It could well be he woke up and demanded Peter get him out of there. I wouldn't put it past him at this point. I'm beginning to think if I told him to go out and save the world, to be a hero, he'd sit around and do nothing and stop interfering, just because he thinks it's not what I want.

It was, always has been, a good old boys club. You have to admit, you did little to stop that in your time. Victoria was a scientist. I was, am, more powerful in a very subtle way than most of them. But it wasn't flashy, nothing to show off overt power. And easily circumvented. I was little more to them than Arthur's wife, a lover to some, a friend to very few. The desire to destroy them now is strong. But I know my place and I do not have the resources I once did. Not with Arthur gone. Kaito as well. You know, if it had been you and not Daniel that had brought about Arthur's death, I could blame you for the death of everyone close to me. Two out of three, Adam.

If I had taught them. Dammit, Adam, you weren't there! You think it's easy. Children are the most vicious beings on the planet. It was hard enough for them, despite the money and the name, to be that different? To constantly wonder if and when? Nathan didn't even manifest until a year ago! He was older than you were when you finally realised what you could do. Peter was the same. They aren't like Claire and that child of the Sanders woman. Like Molly Walker. It's THAT generation that we have a chance with. All the planning and breeding is paying off. Most of our generation did not manifest until recently. Adults with fully formed psyches. It's like herding cats.

Constantly. Again, Arthur's influence. Perhaps my own if I look over my friends, living and dead.
