Our Way Back

Chapitre 11 : Franck Belkacem

L'enquête continue.

"Morgane se plaint, tire sur son bras, mais ne résiste pas de toutes ses forces. Le contact de la paume de Karadec sur son avant-bras lui diffuse une chaleur étourdissante dans son corps et dans sa tête. À la seconde où sa peau est entrée en contact avec la sienne, une décharge électrique s’est propagée jusqu'à son bas-ventre. Elle se bat contre la sensation, contre les gouttes de sueurs qui commencent à perler entre ses seins, contre le rythme galopant de son cœur. Alors forcément, se battre aussi contre la poigne de Karadec devient plus difficile."

getting older can be so amazing? you get more familiar with yourself. learn tips & tricks for troubleshooting your own brain. trial & error helps you build routines that minimize discomfort, maximize reward. your preferences/interests don't get set in stone, but you do find out which ones are going to stay with you in the long-term, and which ones are fun but transient joys to appreciate in the moment.

you learn that the world is so much more complex than you were taught, and that that's okay, and that there's an endless supply of things you can learn or watch or experience or think about if you want to. if you're lucky, you loosen up, stop putting so much pressure on yourself. if you're lucky, you learn to recognize that negative inner voice, and whack it with a baseball bat until it hushes up. if you're lucky, you learn to treat yourself gently, not because you are fragile but because you are worthy of gentleness. (i hope you are lucky.)

and some things will change. some things will get better. some things will get good. and maybe you start to recover from the dehumanizing stress of childhood/education. maybe you learn the power of your own autonomy. maybe you learn how to walk away from bad situations (which is a superpower even if you don't realize it yet). and you get to choose your own clothes. and your own food. and which relationships to pursue! and what you do with your free time. and with your life (but don't worry you get to choose that gradually). and that's crazy! and sometimes scary. and extraordinarily, indescribably precious.

The fact that both Obi-Wan and Ahsoka think that the other died during order 66 and spend years mourning the other when they both survived is so heartbreaking

Chapitre 14 : Cinq Messages

Morgane est amenée aux urgences.

"Morgane, appelle-t-il.

Mais celle-ci ne répond pas. Depuis que les ambulanciers lui ont posé la perfusion, ses yeux se sont fermés et elle s'est assoupie.

Sur sa tempe, Karadec observe une tache de sang séché, celui qui a dû couler quand on l’a assommé pour l’enlever. Sur le reste de son front, sa pommette, sa joue, le coin de sa bouche, des gouttelettes de sang frais, celui d’Yves Grassant.

De loin, on pourrait croire que ce ne sont que d’autres taches de rousseurs, mais lorsqu’il y passe son doigt, elles s’étalent comme de l’encre."

Trying to remember the last time I played hide and seek. The last time I said hi to everyone on the street or saw the girls I spent every day of six years with. The last time my dad picked me up, or my mum brushed my hair. When was the last time I dressed without consideration? There is so much to think about now. I remember falling on the grass at school and making stories with the clouds. Hanging upside down from the swing and realising how big the world was. I wonder on the path of growing when we stop feeling big. I am taller now, smaller still.

getting emotional over footage of an amateur scuba diver interacting with a coelacanth. they are hunted by large deepwater predators, and here comes a large creature bearing the brightest lights it's ever seen, making strange noises, but it does not shy away. it hovers, calmly, as the diver reaches out and trails a hand down its back. im strongly against the anthropomorphizing of real life animals but the stupid emotional part of me loudly insists this is because it recognizes us, the alternating movements of its four paired limbs matching the diver's four paired limbs, & it is thinking, "hello, cousins, we missed you these 66 million years, it's so good to see you again. welcome back, welcome home."

this year my challenge for everyone is to unlearn the association between love and morality. love is not something that is inherently morally good, and the absence of love is not something that is inherently bad. sex without love isn't morally bankrupt, it's just an action. people without love aren't less kind or less good, they're just people. when we can get past this false (and often unnoticed) dichotomy of good love/evil lovelessness then i think we are going to be able to take leaps and bounds in sex positivity, aro advocacy, certain discussions of mental health...
