Parker may not have a firm grasp on sanity, but she rarely dislikes herself. Only once in a blue moon, when a mirror of her childhood is held up, does she realize she's broken. Most of the time, she's all right with the chips and cracks in her person; it makes her unique.

"I care. I'll care if you won't. Stabbed a guy in the last arena for oranges. Won't do that again. Won't --" Parker stops. She remembers what Eponine said about letters, and learning before. "Okay. 3000. Not before."

Parker will feel no compunction accidentally subtracting a few. She even smiles at the idea. Sophie would be so proud.
