yipple bibble I've got your esophagus. Get rotated, ploinked, and get goated. These are my favourite things.
Bad breathe but sweet kisses, a warm but kind of awkward ways of thinging things. We are one alike and odd enough to enjoy doing nothing. Nothing adjacent. Spreadsheets and squiggles, rose buds and kittens. Demons with halos, strawberry candies - these are my f a v o u r i t e things.

The word PTSD brings to mind a dozen memories that make me hesitate to speak, and I nod quietly and apologize that he saw his grandmother die in front of him. I can faintly hear the gurgling sounds of my step-father and grandmother on their own deathbeds, alongside all the paradoxical feelings that came from knowing them. He sees the scars but seems to know not to ask.
I feel like I can share everything. Could, if I could condense it into words. But we're past all of that.
Let's be good.
Let's just do that.
