Cisco: Yeah, I’m vulnerable. To falling into that darkness again, not to allow myself to be manipulated by a man I thought was my enemy for all these years. He’s not fucking me, Violet. Yeah, I’m sick. I realize that. Each and every moment is feel this pull to fall back into the darkness, to run away from it all and to never look back.
Cisco: But I don’t. I pull myself back to reality for you. I feel that pull backwards and I go and read the letter you left me before everything happened. I can’t let that happen again. I need to be here for you. You’re the only family I feel like I have left anymore, and I can’t lose you like I lost everyone else.
Violet: Cisco. That darkness will allow him to manipulate you, Cisco! Please. He’s dangerous.
Cisco: I’m not letting him, Violet! Seriously, why don’t you trust me? I know my limits, and I know the difference between right and wrong, between manipulation and free will.
