Meta thought of the night brought to you by my mun's trip to airport...

*frowns* Someone once told me I had to get rid of all of my attachments in order to do anything, but he was wrong. There's nothing wrong with needing other people. It's not a weakness.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

It makes me vulnerable.

[youngerpetrelli]

But friends can also be your strength when you can't handle something on your own.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

I've never seen that be true.

[youngerpetrelli]

I have. I could never have handled what happened in Kirby Plaza without friends; couldn't have faced Sylar...

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

And my friends...cage.

[youngerpetrelli]

*grimace* Um. Yeah. Have you ever thought about the fact that it's them and not you?

*tilts his head*

As in I need new friends? The thought had crossed my mind, but so far...I am not sure who I can trust.

[youngerpetrelli]

*smile* I'm pretty sure you can trust me -- I can't imagine we'd be having this discussion if you couldn't...

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

*slight smile*

Yes. I trust you.

[youngerpetrelli]

*calm now*

We all make mistakes in who to trust. I trusted Bob when the bastard was telling me I'd hurt Nathan and the only way to keep him safe was to stay away from him... *shudders* If it isn't a natural mistake, then how could we ever-- how could I ever-- They try to use us against our friends!

*sighs*

Yes, they do. It's a way of retaining control. Your generation is so much more powerful than any that has come before...better if the lot of you don't ever unite, from their perspective.

[youngerpetrelli]

*thinking out loud* Then maybe that's what we need to do. Maybe we need to bring everyone together and tell them what's going on. Tell them what the Company's up to... Maybe if they can't pull their divide and conquer crap, we can stop them for good.

*wry smile*

Maybe. You would be the one to do it, Peter.

[youngerpetrelli]

*eyes widen in surprise*

Now you sound like Charles...

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Charles was a good and wise man.

[youngerpetrelli]

I just don't know if he was right about me...

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

I think he was.
