Compass: The Neighbourhood
"The filtration system that Lucius designed is working. What you're doing is both unnecessary and it's reckless. Honey." Mom inquires as we head out the office.
"Our supplies of drinking water are at critical levels, mom." I stop and turn to her.
"Every day, the gangs grow more aggressive." Tess nods.
"If we can get a cease-fire, even a temporary one, then when reunification does happen, at least there will be people left to save. They deserve that much." Dad adds.
"And do our daughter and son deserve a father?" Mom tells him.
"You know the answer to that."
"You have no problem taking care of the entire city. What about focusing on just one life?" She sighs and I bite the inside of my cheek. "Why are you always so ready to put yourself in the crosshairs? It's like you won't be satisfied until you sacrifice yourself."
"You really believe that?"
"I do. And it scares me. And deep down, it scares our daughter too."
"Mom." I shake my head.
"How is this gonna work? Am I supposed to just stay at home and continue to raise our son while you two go cowboying off all the time?"
"Mom, it won't always be like this."
"After reunification-"
"Nothing will be different." She cuts dad off. "Unless you stop being-"
"Me?" Dad nods.
"Hey, guys." Oliver calls out as he stands next to Harvey.
"We have to go, mom." I rasp out. "We'll talk after."
"If there is an after." Mom croaks out.
"Don't say that."
"Baby, listen to me." She grips my shoulders. "You have saved countless lives ever since you got that internship. That's what started it all. And now you're here. The King of Gotham. Not even a queen—a king. And you've made it all by yourself."
"I wasn't alone." I look at dad.
"Listen to me." She shakes me. "You're Ghost Spider, and I love that. But I love Brianna Brady-Gordon more. My only daughter. My baby girl." She whispers. "And I want another baby. I want another one with you. Only you." She looks at dad. "But I don't know how this is gonna end and I don't even think you do either."
"Maybe. But I know I'm not gonna let it end in a bloodbath. I won't. Not anymore. This is the best and only chance we have, mom. And we need you to trust me. To trust us." I nod and dad kisses her.
