Okay, so this is a little bit different for me. It's my first attempt at an angsty one-shot. I have absolutely no idea where it came from—I hope it's not too painful to read. This is about Leo's thoughts between The Exodus and The Ancient One. It's kind of weird, but Enjoy!

They tell me it was my fault. They tell me I should have done something differently. They tell me I'm not good enough to have done anything differently. They tell me I will always fail unless I become better. They tell me I am not good enough to become any better. They tell me that no matter how hard I work I will always let my brothers down. They tell me that I am not fit to be a leader. They tell me I am not strong enough to protect my brothers. They tell me I am a disappointment to my father. They tell me my brothers resent my flawed leadership. They tell me I will always be a failure, no matter how hard I try.
The voices tell me many things. And I believe them all.

It's really short, and probably really boring. Let me know what you think—should I give up on one-shots for good? Or should I try more? Thanks for reading!
