“You go around for a long time carrying the minutiae of yourself in your own two hands, and it's not so bad, not even that heavy. It's just a thing you have to do. And then every so often a person shows up and opens their arms like the clean empty surface of a table, and suddenly your hands feel unbearably full, and you know what was true isn't true anymore, you couldn't for another instant continue bearing so many stories on your own.”
― Abbey Mei Otis, Alien Virus Love Disaster
