    Summary

    katabasis - kə’tabəsɪs, (n.) derived from the ancient Greek for descent, refers to a journey downward, primarily used in literature and mythology to describe a hero’s journey into the underworld.

    He imagines being tucked into a coffin, heartless and stitched back half-heartedly by someone who didn’t love him enough to do it right — and that list is long — the needle tugging loose and lazy through his skin, and wreaths looped around his broken throat like a noose.

    He imagines bouquets of flowers growing where his lungs used to be, roots threading between his ribs, drinking him dry. A crow’s hollow nest of bones in place of a heart — or perhaps a stopped clock, hands frozen at whatever time the bleeding finally won.

    Or: It takes eleven hours for the world to notice that their boy hero is gone, it only takes Tommy three of those eleven hours to vanish.

    Summary

    “I wish I was like you sometimes,” he tells Techno one evening, when the dishes have been washed and the curtains have been drawn and the lamp in the corner of the living room is on. Techno looks up from his book.
    “Really?” he says, fingers flicking the pages.
    “Yeah,” Tommy says, sprawled across the couch on his belly with his arms under his chin. “You know things.”
    Techno considers him for a moment. “I guess so. You know things, too.”
    “Maybe.” Tommy thinks of library shelves and creeping vines trailing up windows. He thinks of candles and paper and soft things. “Maybe.”

    Or; Summer comes, and Tommy floats.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I dont know what to say... This work reads like poetry. It wraps around your gut and squeezes. It burries its meaning deep in your chest. At the same time it keeps you safe and warm like a weighted blanket on a cold night. Even more so its a hug written into a story. A hug that holds you together when everything is falling apart.

    Summary

    “Every night, the sunset- the sun- whatever- it dies. And everyone just accepts it, and it's gone so easily. And by the time the next day comes there's a new sun which will also die as soon as its hours are up- it's just so easily replaced.”

    There was a passion in his voice that Techno hadn’t heard in a long time, a desperation poorly hidden beneath it.

    “It's still the same sun,” Techno answered softly. “It's always setting somewhere, and it's always rising opposite that, and yes, it may look different, live longer, die sooner- but it's still the same sun.”

    or

    Bedrockbros watch the sunset and talk about fears (they are brothers.)
