PHOEBE
Phoebe shook her head a bit. ”You jump from one extreme to another.” she said with a light laugh. ”I’m not saying don’t worry at all, I’m saying worry a little less.” she clarified. Everyone could do with a little less worrying in their lives after all, and it was something she struggled with herself, so she understood why it was difficult. His description of friendship brought a small smile to her face though and she laughed quietly. ”I suppose it is miraculous in a way, if you can find some good ones.” she said. ”So that would’ve been your solution then?”
She shrugged a bit at his comment about his relatives, and their inclinations for criticism. ”I haven’t but I figure anyone with a family reputation like yours is a bit of an outlier and not exactly useful for comparison.” she said with a small smirk.
But to be accused of self-pity made her nose wrinkle. ”I am not self-pitying!.” she said with a huff, crossing her arms. Loren repeated some of her accomplishments in context and she sighed, looking out over the water of the Oasis. ”Maybe I do.” she said with a slight shrug. ”Special people have a voice. They have a say and sway. I’ve a great many blessings and a great many accomplishments, but it doesn’t make me special.” she said.

You thought you'd watch me fade away
When you broke me into pieces
But I gave I gave each piece a name
