Well, Sweeney wasn't bothered about the fight. He was bothered because he belongs to the other pack and he didn't know if you were trying to start a turf war. I know you aren't.
Would a consensual, all-out barroom brawl with him--or someone as willing to hit hard--count as 'sparring' to you?
[It all does circle back around to the way Alec was raised. Literally bred and raised.]
He's complex. And he spent twenty-two years having to hide his thoughts from people who would literally burn out his happy memories with a laser if he didn't. As well as I know him, a lot of our serious conversations are me waiting for him to be able to talk.
[A small nod] I helped someone try to wreck the ship, once. I didn't want to die, I didn't want anyone else to die. I was just so tired of nothing else I was doing mattering.

There are people who would gladly throw down with you.

[He wants to hurt.]

I miss him. Too. I can't stop thinking about him.

I hate this. I've always hated this.
And I don't know why it's taking so fucking long.

How's Alec?
no subject
He could run a marathon on a broken leg, though, so it's hard for even me to know what's going on with him.

How has Warren been with you?

So, of course he's fucking perfect.
But - he doesn't know how to help me like he normally does.

But I don't think it actually helps.

But think of it like...the extreme version of throwing a plate against the wall.

Yeah, that. It gets tedious.
