the serenity as intense as the tides ebb and flow
At Oliver’s explanation, Amun rolled his eyes. ”Sure.” The doubt in the single word was almost overwhelming.
As the other man seemed to run out of the will to fight, the Ascended just leaned against the wall, almost motionless. ”We keep fighting because you take everything so seriously and so personally.” Strangely enough, the words were almost gentle. ”You need to learn to chill out, and that sometimes, not everything is about you. Like just now, you tried to make what happened at Fiat Lux all about you. It wasn't.” That wasn’t mean or argumentative, just a statement. ”Also, not everyone is going to want you around sometimes, for one reason or another. You can’t take that personally either.”
Finally he shrugged. ”I’m easy to get along with. Just…get less excited about literally everything. Especially the things that don't really matter in the long run.” The words were soft, but genuine.

nothing is softer or more flexible than water,
yet nothing can resist it
