Bluh, this is CrystallineSnow. Enjoy this reely, reely, short thing.

I do not own Homestuck. It'd be a lot sadder if i did.

Dave: Be a Hero

I can't be a hero. I'll never be one. My bro was a hero, John is a hero, but not me.

I'm just a cool guy hiding behind glasses. Heck, I'm not even cool! I'm just. . . Dave Strider. . .

I've been living a lie all this time, hiding behind a wall of cool and false images. Well, that wall's been broken down, and all that's left is a cowering, 13 year old albino boy with red eyes. Red eyes that I've hid behind the wall because I didn't want to be considered different.

Karkat and I aren't that different, are we? No, we aren't different at all. We'll never be heroes, not even if they call us knights in shining armor. We're mutants.

All the same, I gotta stick with the team, right? I just wanna say, that, if i fuck up, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. . . . Bro, I'm sorry I let you die.

What was I even trying to do here? I'm sorry.
