Well -

[ It's a perfectly reasonable question. Eliot doesn't really know how to answer it. He's not even sure there is a right answer. He can only speak from experience, which is funny, because he's not even entirely sure he's deserving of anything better.

But he acts like he is, and that helps his attitude come across as confident and un-fuck-with-able. ]

I guess you just have to believe it. Even if you have no reason to, you just have to trust you do. And, you know, take it from the people that care about you. Trust me when I say that if anyone in this place deserves anything good, it's you. You're … Very exceptional.

[He scoffs, glancing aside, surprisingly skeptical. Not of Eliot's sincerity, but...]

There are many exceptional people in this town; I would not count myself among them.

[Clearing his throat, he motions to the food.]

I, um. I should leave you to lunch. It's better warm.
