a little wish

Powers of whatever,

I want to be normal. Or less weird.

I don't want other people's memories and lives in my head. It was really fucking weird and quiet in my head the last time they stopped but I think I can get used to that. It wasn't like it was bad just weird and different. I want to be normal. Or here, if you can't make it go away? At least let me do something about it. Like control it or put up walls like Reggie can with her emotions stuff. Anything to make it less of an every day thing. I'm tired of it getting in the way of things.

That's probably not going to happen, so how about this: I want to feel at home here. Less like I need to leave now. She's not coming with me, and I don't want to go through leaving her. Or missing her. Because that sucked more than I expected. I've gotten used to what's in her head, I like being around her. And still today when i got home I wanted to drive the truck into the Loops or whatever they call them and hope I made it out on the other side.
