"Hey Colton."

"Don't you think it's sad when we can trust a stranger so easily, yet could never believe in ourselves enough?"

"Yeah, kind of. Because, see, we don't actually know each other. We haven't even seen each other. That's why we are so secure about everything. People you don't know can't hurt you. And you can ditch them rightaway - 'kill' them off, and it wouldn't take more than a simple goodbye."

"I wish it was that easy with a friend."

"Then again, you wouldn't really be friends if you can dump each other."

"Yeah. Yeah, I know."

"I've been thinking... lately, about the idea of having a crush... and the fear of losing them and losing yourself in front of them."

"Relatable. Only the real Aphrodite is much crueler."

"Funny how much of an impact a seemingly stupid thing could create on us. And it isn't even accepted, crush-love."

"Is that why it's called a 'crush'? You know, just to get some experience for your real mate?"

"Nice theory. I don't actually know. Never thought of it."

"Too much to discover in a lifespan so small, I wonder if it's even worth it at all."

"You're so depressing to be around."

"But you still talk to me."

"Just because I'm bored. I have nothing else to read."

"Tried Magnus Chase yet?"

"Stayed up all night."

"Same. I'm actually not currently reading anything either... music?"

"My music taste suck. I always listen to old songs, and never try new ones."

"Don't you worry don't you worry child~"

"Impossible, impossible,
Impossible, impossible~"

"When you believe, somehow you will~"

"If I risk it all,
Would you break my fall?~"

"Can I lay by your side,
Next to you,
And make sure you're all right,
I don't want to be here,
If I can't be with you tonight~"

"You know I'll fight my corner,
Maybe tonight I'll call ya,
After my blood,
Turns into alcohol,
Oh I just wanna hold ya~"

"I don't wanna know,
If you're getting ahead of the program,
I want you to be my lady,
To hold your body close,
Take another step into the no-man's land,
For the longest time lady~"

"Fire when the strobe hits you,
Bet you're looking for something new,
I feel the heat with ya starrin' of across the room,
I dare you play your cards, boy you bet I'm a trandsetter too~"

"And it's all fun and games,
'Til somebody falls in love,
But you've already bought a ticket,
And there's no turning back now~"

"This is gonna hurt,
But I blame myself first,
'Cause I ignored the truth,
Drunk of that love,
My heads up,
There's no forgetting you~"

"I need ya, I need ya, I need you right now,
Yeah I need you right now,
So don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down,
I think I'm losing my mind now,
It's in my head, darling I hope,
That you'll be here when I need you the most,
So don't let me, don't let me, don't let me down,
D-don't let me down, don't let me down~"

"Is it too late now to say sorry,
'Cause I'm, missing more than just your body,
Is it too late now to say sorry,
Yeah I know that I let you down,
Is it too late to say that I'm sorry now~"

"Leave this blue neighbourhood,
Never knew loving could hurt so good, oh,
Ans it drives me wild,
'Cause when you look like that,
I've never ever wanted to be so bad, oh,
And it drives me wild~"

"You've got a nice voice."

"Are you serious? It was going so well!"

"Psshh, we can always do this in other times."

"Are you busy now then? I can hang up."

"Uh, no - not really..."

"[soft chuckle] Well, any recommendations for sleepy music?"

"There's no such things as sleepy music... Maybe 'Gloomy Sunday', but then again, it's meh."

"You know what I'm asking for."

"Okay, jeez. 'I see fire', Kygo remix."

"I already know that."

"Oh. Well then, 'Tennis Court', Lorde. I wouldn't describe it as... 'soft', but I guess it'll do."

" 'Kay. Thanks, love."

"Ex... excuse me?!"
