[Now, usually, Simon would bristle at something like that. Perhaps he would resort to calling names or cruelly leaving Akira be, but there is no Grace here. No Apex.
And even though he threw a huge tantrum about people leaving him, they had all been adults. The only people who had betrayed him (thus far) were adults, and Akira wasn't one of those. Grace was right, maybe.
Never trust an adult. But another kid? Heck, another teenager-]
Herp derp.
[Simon twiddles his thumbs.]
Well, you might not need somebody to talk to, but.
I know I do. This place gets really lonely, 'specially if you're our age.
[This is more than he would usually let on if he was on the Train, but talking to Lance about his problems had just felt so good. Maybe this would be similar? Would it hurt to try-]
Listen, I know I'm not part demon, and I didn't have any superpowers before I got here, so I'm just your run-of-the-mill average guy...
[He was no such thing. He had a Number, he was special.
But a little white lie wouldn't hurt.]
But most of the time, I end up feelin' like I'm pretty weird too.
