I don't believe there's any real justice to be had in such a situation, but anything you can give back to the world you've wounded won't be through your suffering.
[Quattro rubs Zechs' leg a little more, and slips his hand down to seek contact with scarred skin]
You use your scars as an excuse to keep yourself further apart from people. Their source haunts you, and I know the knee bothers you and slows you down- I'm sure you've noticed I press you in ways that take advantage of your knee often when we fence. I wish you could see yourself the way I do and admire only the result of your efforts to hone your body and your incredible resilience, but I'd be happy if you could merely look at yourself and not see terrible reminders.
[Quattro's most obvious scar is on his forehead, he could easily wear his hair in a way that hides it, but instead he shows it off to the world.]
