    Summary

    Six has no idea what he's doing.

    Not when he tugs a shivering, half-asleep Claire into their fourth safe house in the last two weeks. Not when he breaks into the nearest grocery store to stock up on food with actual nutrients that a growing thirteen-year-old needs because his stash is running dangerously low. And certainly not when she tries to hide how she cries herself to sleep at night, fingers curled tight around a polaroid photograph of her uncle.

    His hands are calloused, scarred, and covered in blood. They know the shape of a pistol grip or a knife handle, the feel of a nose broken against knuckles or a windpipe crushed beneath fingers. These hands have destroyed too many lives to count, have taken, and taken, and taken with no remorse or hesitation. These hands don't remember how to be gentle.

    They haven't had to be in twenty-six years.

    or

    Six struggles to be who Claire needs him to be in the aftermath

    Summary

    "It comes naturally to you. In Eridanese, we are typically very literal. Figurative speech is reserved for art or profanity, so it doesn't come naturally to most of us."

    Huh. That's interesting. Rocky never had much trouble understanding me. Maybe he has a poetic soul. Or maybe he swears like a sailor. Probably the latter.
