Summary
If he lies still enough, keeps his eyes shut or fixed on the black ceiling of his cell, he can trick himself into being however old he pleases. He’s four, thinking about all the possibilities that the future holds. He’s ten, realizing that there’s not much to the future but this, with Mary. He’s sixteen, thinking 'fuck that, I’m getting out of this place.' He’s seventeen, having just been returned home by the cops. He’s twenty-two, in his flat, knowing distancing himself is not the same as freedom. He’s twenty-five, lying next to some pretty face he’d found in one of his favourite haunts, trying to delude himself into thinking that this could be real. That this could be normal.
He lifts his head to see out into the dimly illuminated hallway and the illusion is dispelled. He’s in jail. Mary is dead but not gone. He’s trapped.
Or: Gerry is waiting for trial. Michael is his lawyer.

(spoilers up to 146!)
"I think Helen may have fancied you," it laughs. "Michael, too, maybe, though he wasn't quite sure about it. We've got all kinds of fluttering things under our skin."
Jon, God help him, feels his cheeks flush with heat.
"Oh," is all he can think to say.

Summary
They find their way to the couch halfway through the statement. It presses down on him this time, legs tangled in his own, long and light and wrong. He thinks before the Stranger's failed ascension he would be more upset by this. By being this close to something that wasn't human.
There's comfort in the wrongness.

Summary
There was fog clinging to the boy in the corner. Michael had noticed it days ago — it was barely there, but he spent most of his time watching his classmates, noticing things. The boy in the corner had hair a shade or two darker than Michael’s and wore the same navy sweater every day. He looked alone.

This starts in the hospital, but it doesn't end there.
Or: Accidentally (?) putting your crush (?) in the hospital probably isn't the best way to start a relationship, but one can make it work...maybe. There might be different problems in the way.

Summary
Being alone is a lot of things, for him. It’s staying up until one in the morning and blasting the loudest music he knows and getting wine-drunk on the couch and calling Gertrude to tell her to go fuck herself.
(She laughs at him down the phone and hangs up, and he goes into work the next day with a hangover, but sometimes being free is being laughed at and having to chase down an avatar of the hunt with a headache).Bookmarked by mimetime

Summary
Michael is terrified.
no. That is incorrect. Michael is always terrified, and in this way it becomes the norm—a low level sickness of sorts, in every shaking hand, in every quick glance to make sure no one’s looking.Michael is terrified.
it can feel the fractal-spiral-angular-swirling mess of thoughts in what it might have called a brain, perhaps, if it had an identity to begin with. It does not, it lies to itself, and thus perpetuates its own horror.Michael is terrified.
But it wasn’t like there was any other option.Title from the mind electric because it is the quintessential distortion song and you cannot tell me otherwise

Inside his jacket, Gerry used one hand to pop open the gasoline. He took a step closer. “Am I now?”
It rolled its eyes. “How adorable of you, this rebellious little stunt. I am all you have left of your Michael. He is in me as ashes are in a fire.”
Gerry shook his head. “You are nothing compared to who he was.”
In which Gerry loses the man he loves most, and must confront the distorted reflection.Series
