You know, sometimes, Finn can be such a pain in the nether regions.

But lately, he's been a comfort.

I told him about the nightmares.

He just nodded and nodded and nodded. As if he knew. As if he understood.

But he can't take the dreams away. Only I can do that.

Aside from the vivid nighttime images, I can't remember much from that day.

I remember running to his fallen body, cradling his head in my arms, listening as his final, tortured breath escaped him. The blade jutted from his open chest, still quivering.

I faintly remember pulling the sword out.

I remember my enemy's eyes, as they widened in shock.

I remember...staring down on two broken bodies.

But every other moment is blurry. As if my mind can't put the pieces together.

Can't...or won't.
