   Summary

   Tim feels like a fraud. A cheat. Like he’s scamming Kon just by laying in his arms, by pretending he could ever be good enough for him.

   Why does Kon stay? Why does he put up with Tim’s pathetic moods, his paranoid thoughts? Surely Tim’s dragging him down, keeping him from the prospect of truly being happy. He’s keeping him from his own potential, keeping him locked and tied down to a hollow shell of a boy who doesn’t exist anymore.

   He’s being so goddamn selfish.

   Or: Tim spirals. Kon helps talk him down
