the entertainment was literally a call into the void for a father and son to connect im gonna be sick catch me weeping uncontrollably over the incandenzas i can't do this

hal incandenza is more me than i am me sometimes

the more i read the more sad i get about the incandenzas

okay look i did cry a decent amount at joelle's recounting of the family dinner, just because the intricate dynamics between the incandenzas hits a soft spot for me. they make me sad okay

that paragraph about depression may have been the most depressing paragraph i have ever read, jesus

asexual hal asexual hal asexual hal (i don't know if this is actually canon but i decided it so it is canon now)

tbh i'm more into the eta/entertainment plotline than the recovery house plotline but i just want them to sync up and merge, is that too much to ask for

i am so close to halfway i can taste it

see it feels like i read more of this yesterday but it turns out most of that was footnotes so it technically doesn't count when reading chronologically

hal makes me so impossibly sad i want to hold him and we can get over our perfectionism trauma together
