... He seems determined to burn every bridge he can.

[ mess. ]

Yeah, think I'm fond of both of them. Good company, at the least.

[unanswering]

I can't say that I really care why he does it, or if he secretly wants people to be close to him, or whatever his problem might be. Beau cared, but she'll get caught in that too if she lets him come back.

[and the last thing she needs in her life is more people who are kind of a mess.]

Just- make sure she stays alive. Whatever happens. One of us needs to win, and it's all right if it's you too, but...

[much as he'd like to see her again, he doesn't really want to under those circumstances.]

I would do anything to make sure she stayed alive, were things not like this. If I can't, I need to know... someone will.

[ phoenix lets that bit about asch rest --- honestly, whatever his motivations, he's self-destructing. and taking anyone he can with him, including beau. ]

[ there's no fence for him to even try mending it. better if they avoid each other.... for both of their sakes. ]

It's unlikely to be me-- I've already accepted that. But I will make sure she makes it until the end of this to the best of my ability, no matter what I have to do.

[ if that gives him any comfort. ]
