• Peter Quinn : Carrie, I guess I'm done. And we never happened. I'm not one for words but they're coming now. I don't believe in fate, or destiny, or horoscopes, but I can't say I'm surprised things turned out this way. I always felt there was something, kind of, pulling me back to darkness. Does that make sense? But I wasn't allowed a real life or real love. That was for normal people. With you I thought, ah, maybe, just maybe. But I know now that was a false glimmer. I'm used to those, they happen all the time in the desert. But this one got to me. And here's the thing, this death, this end of me, is exactly what should have happened. I wanted the darkness. I fucking asked for it. It has me now. So don't put a star on the wall for me. Don't say some dumb speech. Just think of me a a light on the headlands, a beacon, steering you clear of the rocks. I loved you. Yours, for always now, Quinn
