Me too. But my brother isn't ready to give this up.
[ he's from the future, he says life back home is worse. he's been here a year and he has a life. she's happy for him to the extent that she can be. the rest of her's itching to find a way out.
and this conversation is a guilty reminder that she's already started looking. it's what she does.]
give this up? what part, the shitty food loaded with narcotics or the manipulative sex freaks running a circus?
( of course, there's no way for him to know where she's from, where they've come from, but it's hard to imagine somewhere you're stripped entirely of control could be any better. even in the worst of the slums you still had choice. )
good ol' kentucky pretty much always on the road, though. hard to peg anywhere as home
When you put it like that, how could anyone want to leave?
[ but she doesn't blame Bellamy. he has a home, a life, someone he loves. she might feel the same if she could find a place where she belongs here. most of the time it just feels like being trapped, and she misses having her freedom even if it meant having less.]

I grew up on a space station. It wasn't home.

( don't get him wrong, he can get into some freaky shit. but there's something about it being your choice that adds you know, a thrill to it all. )
a space station?
as in you were actually born in space?
damn. they really reverse armstronged you here
no subject
[ but neither of them are going to change their mind, so it's not worth having that argument with Bellamy.]
Yeah.
I've been to Earth. I was part of a group sent down to see if it was habitable.
But this world is different. And it sucks.
