@atrocites . . . ❝ i can tell you’re upset, what happened ? ❞ ( for : spider. ) ( from : alistar. )
there's a rumination inside him, one that's been searing a hole in his skull for about sixteen years. who am i ? it's a burden of a question, especially given spider's unorthodox circumstances. not too many people can say their father led the mission to informally extinguish an entire native species. embarrassing is a tart understatement. the only comfort has been, ultimately what some might call, a fatal delusion : that pandora is his true home.
spider's what they like to call : too animal for the scientists, too human for the n'avi. it's alienating, on both ends. a trap, really. but what the hell kind of life would he live on earth anyway ? from everything he's heard from norm, it sounds like a molting shit hole, on the brink of collapse. he'd humbly prefer getting ravaged by a palulukan than ever go there.
ali's question brings out a corroded reaction from spider : defensiveness. he hates to wonder if that's something he might've inherited from his ' father. ' the thought makes him a pinch more sour. ❝ nothing happened, ❞ spider growls, curls sinking down with his slouch to cover the sides of his face. because, really, nothing happened. just a bad day. one of those days where you can't help but notice everyone just looks right past you. like barely anybody understands you. it's a cold thing to feel, as a kid.
baren feet dangle freely from the mossy ledge of a less than shallow cliff, mouth shriveled up into a contemplative line. he wants more than anything to just be alone, but ali is cool enough. he's about one of the four people that doesn't talk down to spider, which he fairly appreciates. still, even ali has his place with the people. ali lives amongst them, an avatar turned na'vi in his own right. spider will never have that. not even with the sullys, as much as he secretly desires it. he will always just be the little boy who was too small for a cryo capsule, who they had no choice but to leave behind. ❝ maybe everyone's right. maybe i just maybe i just don't belong anywhere. ❞
