I'm constantly surrounded by reminders of how fickle life is. How fragile. MJ and Johnny's disappearances. Tony and Wolverine's poisonings. Jessica's injuries and the whole of Rapture. Kendra Shaw and Duo Maxwell. Norman. If my weekend spent as a blissfully ignorant teenager drove anything home, it's that it's a miracle I ( Read more... )

There are cuts on my hands I can't account for. A bruise blossoming along the line of my jaw. If I looked in a mirror, I'd see that I've been crying, my eyes red-rimmed. I can't remember the last time I shaved, let alone showered. I'm not sure it matters. My focus is elsewhere as I stand in my workshop, one of the few rooms I ( Read more... )

He had, on occasion, been compared to Howard Hughes, but he was not turning into a crazed hermit. At least, not the hermit part; part of him still wasn't entirely convinced that ceasing to drink was an entirely sane course of action, given what it did to his brain.
