Summary
It had been 35 hours. 35 hours, and he wasn't sure how he was supposed to work tomorrow. The exhaustion had grown into a mind-numbing daze, a fuzzy clutter like the static noise of an old TV. Maybe he'd call in sick, he supposed. He had never had to do that before; he'd never even taken any of his vacation time, because he'd never quite been sure what he was meant to do with it. But now, yes, he'd have to call in sick. Take the week off, see how bad this little experiment of his could get. Anything to not go to sleep again. Anything to escape the nightmares.

Summary
He loses his virginity to an older man with a pale circle around his ring finger. The man isn't especially attractive or interesting, but he looks at Edward with a sort of starved desperation that might befit a penniless beggar at the window of an expensive bakery. Edward can't get enough of that look, of the clammy, covetous touches, of the groaned praise. Of being looked at like he's something miraculous, something beautiful, something good. There are a lot of pathetic middle-aged men after that. Edward doesn't let himself reflect on it.
He's fine. It's fine. He's surviving.

Summary
He's coming unbound, and it feels freeing.
He's spent his career shackled to convention, to contemporary wisdom, to "scientific ethics".
They are chains he'd been afraid to break, a self-enforced prison of mediocrity.The only thing that kept him chained had been fear – fear of losing his career, his livelihood, all that he'd worked for…
Jonathan Crane wasn't afraid of that anymore.Truthfully, he doesn't even feel like Jonathan Crane anymore.

Summary
Jervis was terrified that he'd float away.
Jonathan had asked him what that meant, once, and Jervis couldn't explain it. He had tried to find the words, but they came out as just another nonsensical string of rhymes.
After that, Jonathan gave up on asking. Instead, he would simply sit down next to Jervis, and let Jervis hold his hand.

Summary
When Jervis Tetch looked at him, Jonathan felt as if the man saw right through him. The hypnotist’s gaze was heavy and piercing, and it felt like it laid Jonathan bare, exposing all the weak, shameful, hidden parts of his psyche. Jonathan hated it. Jonathan yearned for it.

Summary
“Would you have adopted me?” he interrupts. “If my dad had died?”
“Uh –” She doesn’t know how to begin to unpick that. The weirdness. The vulnerability. The way that Caroline doesn’t even factor. “Sure,” she says anyway.
Roman and Gerri have a very interesting Mother's Day.

Summary
"Yer hands are filthy." He spits right there on the floor, watches it bubble. "Don't want that in my mouth."
When he does look up, he expects Thomas to launch into another tirade, lay one more curse upon him. Instead he only laughs, scratchy and wheezing. "That so? I got bad news about the rest of me, boy."
