This--this is familiar. All this science crap and sterile environments is something I'm used to. I can live with this. It feels more like Manticore than that other place ever did. I kind of felt weird before when we weren't here. I've never been good at living a quiet life. I don't think I know how.

[ Even when he was living in Seattle he didn't have a quiet life. He was constantly getting into trouble helping Max, Joshua or even Logan. Always something pulling at Alec. ] Like it or not being closed off is what I know.
