Summary
Every Friday night, when Liam was a lad, his father used to take him into town to buy a fish. Liam would watch every damn Friday as the fishmonger gutted the cod; the knife that slid through the rib cage, the crack in the scales, and the glassy eyes that always, and without fail, looked at Liam. The fishmonger would wrap up its bloody corpse in a sheet of newspaper and every Friday night Liam would carry that heavy weight home. It’s cold body beneath rows of ink – the sluggish blood that slipped out from the cut. At the time, Liam had hated that fish. The stench it left on his fingertips. Now, Liam thought that fish might be the one damn thing in this world to really understand him.
Rewrite of season 1, in which Liam Jones is alive and runs a cafe with Killian.
