The Fallout, Ch. 16

I can't even fathom what it would be like to be an empath. More or less one during a time of such extreme emotion. My heart hurts for Jasper, and can't help but think the family is being a little selfish making him stay with them. Send him to one of their houses in the country...away from people. Or have the whole family move there, and have Carlisle meet them there eventually.

Finally, Edward's lack of hope is so saddening. It would be so hard living for others' happiness when you can't find any for yourself.
