‘i feel like maybe if i told him he didn’t have to be so fuckin’ tough.’ he sobs into his hands. if he told landry that he didn’t have to be like cormac; that cormac was like their daddy but landry didn’t have to be like their daddy, and he didn’t have to be like their mother, and he didn’t have to be like his sisters, and he didn’t have to conform to anything he learned from a book, and he didn’t have shit to prove. that it might take a little searching but he’d eventually find what he needed to find, and damn, it wasn’t threaded into the thrills of racing your boxy car and getting into fights with drunk people.
she doesn’t mention that this is the only time cormac’s cried in front of anyone. this is the only time he’s said anything that wasn’t, “oh, it was his time to go.” (albeit, that was solely to console mother, willa could tell it in his tone, in the way he pursed his lips and furrowed his brow.) she hesitates in hugging him; the two weren’t close like she and landry. she never rested her head on cormac’s shoulder or looped her arm around his during their walks home from school. their bond was strong but they preferred to keep one another at arm’s length. perhaps it was more so to do with the fact that willa was not nearly as doting on the older boy—she did not adore his plucky attitude and sly grin and ease of maneuvering his way out of pitfalls. not in the way she adored the younger’s ruddy cheeks, the way he stuttered and snapped his fingers when he finally got his sentence straight. the way he loved her and never made fun of her and always saved the best for her. she admired the older, but never really adored.
before she really knows what she is doing, she is sobbing into his neck, and he in hers, and she thinks about how they would never do this if he were here, never, even if mother died, and daddy did die, and who knows… but she thinks it’ll never happen again. still, she’s okay with that, and pulls back to look at him. it’s like her knees go out when she sits in the barstool beside him. (this house is so much bigger than the one they grew up in. they never would have dreamed of living in a place that had room for barstools.)
‘you think it would have changed anything?’ her tone is hopeful.
‘hell if i know.’ his is, too.
‘yeah…’ she takes a moment to wipe her tears, ‘don’t know if it would have made a lick of difference. but knowin’ what i know now—’
they look at each other, cormac mouths a yep and inhales. it’s shaky, he’ll have to take a couple more. and in the same way she’ll never lean her head on his shoulder, this wordless exchange would have never transpired between willa and landry. it’s a fact she’ll take for granted. it used to drive landry up the wall, the way the two older kids could hatch a plan with a look. in half a second you could be caught between them without having known they had been conspiring against you.
cormac wipes his nose with the back of his hand. next he’s shoving a plate of pecan pie towards willa. ‘eat it.’
she scowls. ‘not if you’ve been touching it with your snotty fingers.’
‘this is what get for trying to be a generous man?’
‘that is what you get for being a snot-nosed man.’

“I want to talk about what happened without mentioning how much it hurt. There has to be a way. To care for the wounds without reopening them. To name the pain without inviting it back into me.”

don't fear the reaper.
dialogue prompts from don't fear the reaper by stephen graham jones.
this better be worth it.
it's sort of good to be home.
this world is shit, to not have treated you better.
sorry i was such a handful, back when.
you still believe in all that?
the grass is always greenest right above the septic tank.
tell your pretty wife to call me.
what's the last thing you remember? what were you doing?
a monster you know, or one you don't know?
you really are different, aren't you?
and i thought video was dead.
will things ever be normal between us, do you think?
just what i wanted to be reminded of.
it sucks being the last one left.
what kind of bullshit death dream is this?
you said you'd come back, and you did.
it's not easy, being a terrible person.
it's happening again, isn't it?
names don't matter. it's what they do that matters.
we survivors have to stick together, don't we?
my version of reality isn't the consensually agreed upon one.
being smart's not as easy as everyone makes it out to be.
you're never as alone as you think you are.
did you really do it?
i'm going to have to tell them, aren't i?
do i need protection?
souls are like livers: they regenerate until you poison them enough. then all they can do is kill you.
after a while, you can forget you're pretending.
i think i'm running out of lives here.
i hate you, you know.
people change. they grow up.
apology accepted. i wouldn't have listened to me, either.
i thought if i knew all the rules, nothing would happen to me.
you don't get to pick your genre.
have i always been this annoying?
you really plan for everything, don't you?
i'm not as good as you think.
there aren't any real fighters anymore: just killers and the killed.
good grief, charlie brown, give it a rest already.
who doesn't need coffee and cupcakes?
if the only scars you get are on your skin, count yourself lucky.
once you start running, you don't stop until you are stopped.
watch your 6, your 12, your 10, and 2.
sometimes it is who you think it is.
it was high school. we were all stupid, right?
ask anybody: you can't trust me, i'm a bad bet. the worst bet.

he interlocks his fingers behind his head and looks at cal through slits. it's always pleasant, the ease of conversation over shared interests between two almost-strangers. especially this particular interest. ' yeah. i reckon it helps. don't remember too well though. jus' tryna get some gal to like me — think i was cool an' shit. '
cal holds the joint like they do in the movies. this is learned behavior but he won't ever tell you that it comes from the movies. "i think i did once in high school." he didn't know what clove cigs were, either, until he had a girlfriend who would sage every room. some personalities go together.
"supposed to be relaxing, yeah? it's like some essential oil shit."

it makes him smile, a little bit, that the stranger cash has taken a liking to gives him the benefit of the doubt. based on looks alone, it's not something either dog nor man have grown accustomed to. she's kind for that, he thinks, but says nothing of it. he watches her pet cash for a few short moments before replying.
"it is pretty damn mean, ain't it?" another puff. "found him on the side of the interstate. been bothering me ever since. you got one?"
he looks like someone with a story, a past carried on his back like stone. rory's gaze travels from him to the excited dog, a rare smile touching her lips, secretly pleased to have passed this invisible test. "cash," she repeats, gently stroking the top of cash's head now that she has gained his acceptance. "maybe he just knows the world's usually a mean place. he seems sweet, really. was he a stray?"

cormac cocks a brow at the gentleman for a millisecond, taken aback at his somewhat peculiar diction, a fact that's indicative of cormac's own lack of college experience. peculiar, but not unappealing. he nods at the question and throws a look over his shoulder, back to his sister. ' here for her. we were talkin' about freemasons earlier. i was just bullshittin'. '
a vague gesture, as if to say, and all of this? ' what d'you wager as bein' the most exemplary? '
Abstract color reflects off the curves of Spock’s lenses when he turns. He did not think the comment was meant for him as close as they are, separated by only respectable distance. But he answers, lips slightly quirked and his voice steady, “ Some of what is being showcased today could be considered exemplary of human innovation. ”
A placative statement. Although, as the youngest of his siblings himself — however estranged — the need for personal freedom from their shadows, is something he can understand, “ I gather you are not here for the science fair? ”

@soulmissed asked: you must have eyes on the back of your head. ( x )
his back is still turned, fingers busy cutting down box after box of tobacco products and lining the contents in pretty, straight rows behind the counter. ' you must be confusin' me with my mama. ' it comes out in a mutter. he finally turns to look at the boy, still half-focused on the container in his hands. ' you got a pocketknife on you? my boxcutter went to shit. '
