John GreenShe had this dark cancer water dripping out of her chest. Eyes closed. Intubated. But her hand was still her hand, still warm and the nails painted this almost black dark blue and I just held her hand and tried to imagine the world without us and for about one second I was a good enough person to hope she died so she would never know that I was going, too. But then I wanted more time so we could fall in love. I got my wish, I suppose. I left my scar.

John Greenโฆbecause nerds like us are allowed to be unironically enthusiastic about stuffโฆ Nerds are allowed to love stuff, like jump-up-and-down-in-the-chair-canโt-control-yourself love it. Hank, when people call people nerds, mostly what theyโre saying is โyou like stuff.โ Which is just not a good insult at all. Like, โyou are too enthusiastic about the miracle of human consciousnessโ.
