Ever since Charles Lee missed John and accidentally shot Alex in the mouth, John's been talking less to try and understand Alex better. But they still communicate well, through hand motions and writing—Alexander has such neat handwriting. And the silence somehow makes the relationship feel more secure.
As though not talking can block out the fact that Alex literally can't talk.
Notes:
This word count wasn't measured, but I'm pretty sure it's less than one hundred. Also, our first ao3 prompt chapter! Thank you!
Keep calm and Lams on,
