When he was twelve years old, Aunamee would sit with a police blotter pressed up against his ear, the volume whisper-soft so that it could be his little secret. These were the days when his name was Ariel, when he was mortal and helpless and saw nothing when he closed his eyes. Whenever he heard about a car accident, a suicide, a murder, he would get his bike out from the garage and peddle down to the scence, his shoelaces click clicking against the cold metal of the frame. Let’s watch this. Let’s see life in action.

As an adult, things were very much the same. Aunamee harmed and Aunamee killed, but he preferred it when he could sit back and watch everything unfold, a spectator in a wild orchestra of flesh and blood.

He told Grey he was giving him a reprieve. He cut his binds. He left him out in the open, bruised and beaten, and then he stepped backwards and out of sight, cloaked in ruins.

Let’s watch this. Let’s see life in action.
