7,000 simulations. I killed a lot of people, but the one person that I couldn’t kill... was you. So I killed myself. Over and over again. And I’d rather do that here and now than to risk your life.
I told you I couldn’t escape it. But when things got to be too bad... there was one place I would go to in my mind. Here… with you. You were my safe place. But not anymore, and I can’t control myself. So the only thing I can control is this.
We’re so good at this together. You’re gonna realize that some day.
Root, no offense… you’re hot. You’re good with a gun. Those are two qualities I greatly admire. But you and me together would be like a four alarm fire in an oil refinery.
Sounds cozy.
Fine. Maybe someday, when Samaritan wipes everyone out… we can talk about it.
You’re saying maybe someday?
Yeah, sure, Root. Maybe someday. Is that good enough for you?
Yes, Sameen. That’s good enough for me.
All my damage comes from you!
Well, all my pain comes from you!
And I’m allowed to want to save you!
I’ll save you every time or I’ll die trying! I don’t care!
Me too, because I love you!
Yeah, well, I love you too!
Well then, why are we yelling?!
I don’t know!
And the woman? Jemma Simmons?
Simmons? You two were in love. Unbreakable. A force to be reckoned with. The Fitz I knew nearly drowned for Jemma. He crossed the bloody universe to rescue her!
Elektra, this is a part of me that I need. And you’re the only one who gets it. Without this, I’m not alive. I’m not. Not really. And I know that now, thanks to you. I don’t know what we are together, and if we have any chance in the future. But I do know that I’m free with you.
I’m from another world with another Marcy. I found her in the rubble and raised her as my own. My Marceline became a great vampire hunter. And where I come from, you two fell in love.
…I would never.
