I feel fantastic. And I never felt as good as how I do right now, except for maybe when I think of how I felt that day, when I felt the way that I do right now.

Right now.


I feel fantastic.

I'm fine. There's nothing wrong with me.

I check my messages, but I don't have any messages.

Harry's just... he doesn't understand.


I am what I am. A hunter. A thing. I'm not human. And it's better I accept that.

Better for everyone.

I feel fantastic, anyway. Much better than before. I've never felt as good as how I do right now.

I was supposed to have dinner with Justine. I don't know why. She's just a Doe. But she didn't show up.

Sometimes I'd like to slow things down, enjoy the moment, but when I look the moment's gone.

All I know is that the wine lasts longer when you don't have to share it with someone.

I feel fantastic.

I check my messages, but I don't have any messages.

I'm better off without her.

I'm better off alone.


Work is anything but quiet these days. I'm glad I gave up that silliness of cutting hair. I don't know what I was thinking. The job Lara's got for me is so much better.

I feel fantastic.

I sit in my room. Alone, but I'm not lonely. I'm fine.

I feel fantastic. I've never felt as good as how I do right now, except for maybe when I think of how I felt that day, when I felt the way that I do right now.

Right now.

But I'm not thinking about that. Because I feel fantastic.


The phone rings.

"Hello?"

"Thomas?"

"Harry?"

I'm not alright.


Ta da. What do you think? A little angsty?
