Hey, I love you, but my pride is wounded , so I let you lead my army into battle, and then you ultimately die—though you were a great warrior—and I go mad. My grief and rage overwhelm me that I fight a river god to kill Hector and drag his body through Troy. I refuse to bury your dead body because I never imagined you would leave me first. But yeah, I still love you. Philtatos.

Unfortunately, I thrive on this.

Once, I took your medication to know what it's like
And now I have to act like I can't read your mind

Do you get insanely anxious and feel a pit in your stomach all summer for no apparent reason at all, or are you normal?
