Yeah, for awhile there we were the only real friends each other had, I think. He was never really social, and then when his wife died he shoved people away even more. Except for me. Maybe because I got what it was like to be angry about something you couldn't change no matter how smart you were, so I forgave him for the way it made him act.

And that's always going to mean something. But I don't think I'd throw myself t him the same way I did if he showed up now. I'd probably actually be more concerned with showing off my new powers first. I think he'd grill me for hours on that.

It's strange, I held on to that torch for years. It feels like it should have taken a lot longer to put it down even a bit. I don't really know what that means. Not sure I want to really.
