"Really…that's what you took away from what he said, ghosts; why am I not even surprised?" Shaking my head, I noticed my Dad chuckle at Brenden's antics, and I had to admit, if anyone was good at breaking the tension in the room, it was my little brother.
I don't know if it was intentional or if he was truly that simple, but either way, it got me to crack a smile.
"As for your question, Taylor, I guess the only response I can give you is that I understand. I understand why you became who you did, and although I'm afraid I have to disagree with the way you went about things, I know that you had a purpose in doing it."
"Villain or Hero, you are still my son, no matter which mask you decide to put on, be it that of Xipher or any of the other names you use to achieve your goals." After saying this, Dad walked over and placed his hand on my shoulder.
