“Without you on this... «Light Bringer»
KurisuV23 октября 2023“Without you on this journey I would have fallen apart. You’re my brother, Cassius.”
He thinks I speak in hyperbole. “What’s next then, when this journey ends?” he asks.
“Cassius. I wasn’t just talking about this trip. By journey, I meant my life.” He looks over at me, touched and more than a bit surprised. “You’re my brother. We let ten years slip past. Ten years we should have fought side by side. I won’t make that mistake again. Whether you like it or not, you’re with me to the end.”
A very small “Oh,” is all he can manage. He thinks for a long moment. “I mean that’s a lot of commitment, Darrow.”
I knew the sarcasm was coming but I still almost burst a stitch laughing.
“Brothers,” he murmurs. “It does feel like it fits. We’ll try it on.”
