Rob brought me the ad. Rob insisted I follow up on it. It was Rob who acted surprised every time I showed back up at home when the season was over. And it was in Rob’s notebook that I found that sketch of an owl identical to the ones carved into the trees in the forest, and it was his taxidermic birds of prey, his owls, that watched me as I slept.

We can't have nice things
Bezi
FINAL GIRL!! She survived!
Kyle was long gone.
It was from Kyle.
Why did you actually go?!
The light fades from his eyes as his corpse bobs in the shallows.

“Charity.”
