    Summary

    When he was a child, death fascinated him. It was terrifying, and mysterious, and uncharted, and beautiful. The cowboys riding off into the sunset, the soldiers riding into battle. It filled every inch of the stories he was told. Fairy tales, myths, cowboy ballads-- his father sang him Streets of Laredo as a lullaby every night until he was six. He only stopped because it always made Soda too sad.

    He had spent lots of time thinking about death-- anytime he’d look at the stars, it wouldn’t be long until he found himself wondering and yearning for something he couldn’t place. What was beyond them, if anything? What were they made of? Where did they go in the daylight?

    ~

    a deadly tornado has touched down in tulsa, and all three curtis brothers are scattered across town. they're not getting out of this unscathed. but they'll always come home to each other. even if death seems to follow them wherever they go.

    Summary

    Johnny gets the nerve to sit and stand on shaking legs. Pony’s legs dangle from the side of the fountain, unmoving and still, his converse just brushing the concrete. There is coldness that envelops Johnny’s heart and soul, and he feels his eyes go wide and white.
    “What did you do to him?” Johnny asks in a tough, but shaking voice. “What did you do?”
    Bob looks at him. He looks at the other Socs. He looks back at Johnny. “He had it coming.”
    Johnny feels sick and cold inside. “No, no, you-- he’s fourteen. He’s fourteen!”
    The other Socs don’t even stay long enough to hear Bob’s commands do Johnny in, too. They just tear Bob away with blank, pale faces. Bob laughs in a sick, twisted way. Johnny vomits up popcorn and Pepsi and forces his legs to move forward.
