“It’s just fear, I tell myself. It’s just fear making me panic. And it’s spread through my friends. I see the horror on their faces and see that fear reflected in my own. I cannot be afraid. I’ve spent too long being afraid. Too long being diminished by loss. Too long being everything except what I need to be. And whether I am the Reaper, or whether it’s just another mask, it’s one I must wear, not just for them, but for myself.” — Pierce Brown
