"Is this really what you want, or are you just trying to be someone else's

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RCJ8qeMiQacMelina puts her hat back on, gives you yours, and then lies against the wall, "I don't need to be a hero for anybody but myself, but I go the extra mile anyway."
She starts to gather her things, a trivial task given the lack of space, "Tell you the truth: I was almost ready to give up today, that's why I didn't bother doing anything, that's why I had trouble waking up this morning, it's also why I skipped breakfast."
Still nobody on the surface, it seems.
"Every time I closed my eyes, I saw nothing but the shit I already went through years ago, it was a haunting image, a constant reminder. I could never escape it, and I can't believe i was stupid enough to consider offing myself just to get away from it. But nah, thanks to you, I have a revitalized ego. I feel alive again. Thanks, I guess. I don't have to keep lying to myself anymore."
"But what about--!"
Her finger daintily taps your lips.
"Don't worry about it. Slammer, or something, it's been a while since I gave a shit. I don't visit, either."
