[Peter's face burns with suppressed sorrow and grief and rage. Flynn's 'I hate you' stings, but he's so used to being the way he was now, it wasn't surprising.
But his own outburst cracked open the dam and he couldn't put it back together in time. Centuries of trying not to let things get to him, of not letting people get to him, all because he couldn't let himself care enough to lose people--that was all failing in the face of the terrible fact that none of this mattered, that everything and everyone that was important to him was gone, that he was just wasting time until he was crushed and flattened under millions of years of Norfinbury, everything that he was drained away little by little.
He doesn't answer Flynn, he tells himself he doesn't care if he comes over or not, but his feed's still on.]
