    Summary

    And then, like he was picking out a can of soup for that night’s dinner, Swansea plainly asked, “y’wanna die, Capitano? I can make it quick.”

    The axe did not come down. It didn’t cleave for any of Curly’s vitals, didn’t swing for the space between his eyes. Instead, it idly tapped the floor, in repetitive, rhythmic knocks.
    Thump. Thump. Thump.
    …what?

    ——

    Swansea takes responsibility. It’s a long twenty years for them both.

    Summary

    His mind is addled and feverish - he’s unsure anymore if his death was a delusion, if his sister really lost him forever that day and pulled him back from the brink… if it was a dream, or a simple medical scare driving both children in this house into madness. He can only feel the frustration at his confinement - towards who, he doesn’t know, his sister for letting him live, himself for being so ungrateful, whoever put them in this situation - God or their parents, he doesn’t know, and no prayer he’s given has ever worked quite like his sister’s.

    Summary

    He finds a deep, inadequate misery towards himself at everything he does, too young to fully process these emotions, and Mom not the kind to address them. They would fade eventually, if he had ample distraction - toys, TV, other children, real school, but he has none of those things, and so the feelings could only fester: at a point, all he can do to cope is attempt to compartmentalize them, use his imagination like Dad taught him to escape the troubles of the real world.
