    Summary

    “Did you need something, Lot?” She says, not looking up.

    Lottie swallows. “Uh, yeah. Here.”

    She hands her a rock she found the other day, this flat grey stone with a hole through the middle.

    - Five times Lottie gives Nat a gift (usually in the form of blood), and one time Nat gave her one back.

    Summary

    So when Shauna got drunk (which was always quickly) and got messy (which was always inevitable) and would start to pick fights, Natalie would stick close. When Van would block the goal with her nose, too tired from night of being the adult and too queasy to open her eyes, and Taissa was off giving a bollocking to the person who kicked the ball, Natalie would hold the tissue to her nose and offer to right it for her.

    or, Nat and her guilt

    Summary

    Nat thinks maybe she died in that trailer, like she was supposed to, and that this is some fucked up version of hell come to swallow her whole. Maybe she died and came back wrong, like all the same parts but no sum, Frankenstein's monster in the shape of a girl. It would explain the hole in her chest, at least. Maybe she drowned in the lake and it’s her body swinging from that branch, and she's just a ghost following behind.

    The truth is, Nat doesn’t even really know what being alive feels like. How would she ever know what death is?

    or

    nat is feeling a lot of big girl emotions and is bad at handling them. lottie is dying. they’re gay about it. tile is from zero by the smashing pumpkins.
