“Sorry, I was awash in the nobility of sacrifice. What were you saying?”
“What nobility of feeling! To sacrifice your own pleasure to preserve the comfort of others! It is a thing, I confess, that would never occur to me.”
“What was that?" Jace said. "Sorry, I think I fell asleep for a moment. Do, continue with whatever mesmerizing thing you were saying.”
“I'm sorry, I say. I didn't give you everything you wanted. I wasn't everything you wanted. You were everything I wanted.”
“Hey, knock it off," says Virgil"What?" I whispered"You kicked me.""Sorry”
“If I were to say, "this isn't a sacrifice" at this moment, it would reek of a lie...... But I hope I'll be able to really say that in a few years' time.”
