[WHY CAN'T I FIX EVERYTHING?]

[skepticalities]

[wraps his arm around him.]

[onlyoneof]

... sorry.

[skepticalities]

It's okay. I know how it feels.

[onlyoneof]

Her world has different rules.

[skepticalities]

I know.

[onlyoneof]

God, I wish Walter was here.

[skepticalities]

You're doing the best you can, Peter.

[onlyoneof]

And I am being completely objective when I say that the best I can isn't good enough.

[skepticalities]

[quietly rubs at his back.]

[onlyoneof]

I'll be okay, and she-- god. She'll probably be okay too. Eventually.

[skepticalities]

What you can do is be there for her.

[onlyoneof]

We baked. Well, she demanded cupcakes. We talked and she told me... and then I baked.

[skepticalities]

Good. That's a good start.

[onlyoneof]

[deep breath!!]

[skepticalities]

Just . . . being there for her, doing those things — it helps. It's not nothing.

[UGHHH I AM A TERRIBLE HERO]

[skepticalities]

[rubs at his back, shhhh.]

[onlyoneof]

... I'm gonna be a pain to deal with for the next week and a half.

[skepticalities]

I figured. I know you're going to be working a lot and focusing pretty intently on things, so I'll give you your space for that.

[onlyoneof]

I did set the platypus alarm.

[skepticalities]

Thanks, although honestly, that's minor in comparison to what's going on right now.

[onlyoneof]

[shrugs]

It's something I can do.

[skepticalities]

. . . yeah.
