[It's hard to know just what kind of face to make, because Peter gets through a lot of emotions in a short amount of time. It's about lost love and about the woman in the dream.
It's about family and it's about how Peter, maybe, sees himself. And Quentin gets that, about feeling too good. Not to a person, not someone interesting and he's never been set up in his life. Probably because his dad knows even fewer people than Quentin does, and because Quentin's mom is... was. Too busy with her wife to really pay much attention to Quentin unless he was breaking things.
But he gets the feeling of looking at other people and thinking them beneath him.
Quentin, who could do advanced math in fourth grade, who was fluid in Klingon and Elfish by 12 and who was forever and always the smartest person in the room?
Yeah, he gets that feeling. And the feeling of being so utterly wrong it's kind of painfully embarrassing.]
She's... the one you miss. And really, it's always complicated. Eliot, he-- told me no, too. So, I get it.
[And Quentin grins, lips twitching up in a smile.]
