When dawn looked at vic, she saw vic exactly as he wanted to be seen. whereas vic's parents couldn't help seeing who he used to be, and so many friends and strangers couldn't help seeing who he didn't want to be anymore, dawn only saw him. call it a blur if you want, but dawn didn't see a blur. she saw a very distinct, very clear person.

They'd had fun, for sure. they laughed and enjoyed being together. but if she was painfully honest with herself, something was missing. something in the way tim looked at her. she remembered her mom's word. "i saw the way he looked at you...he adores you." maybe that was it. tim looked at her on a surface level. he smiled and seemed happy to see her. but when cody looked at her, there were no layers left, nothing her didn't reveal, nothing he couldn't see. he didn't really look at her so much as he looked into her. to the deepest, most real places in her heart and soul.

When i was 9 or 10 years old, my dad took me over to a neighboring farm to help get stuff for the meal. the farmer, vic, told me to look at all the turkeys and pick one out. i saw a cute one with a silly walk and cried, 'him!' before my pointing finger had even dropped to my side, vic had grabbed the turkey by the neck and slit [the animal's] throat. blood and feathers went flying. i had sentenced that turkey to death! up until then, i didn't know where meat came from—and i've been a vegetarian ever since.

"she kept saying she wanted to keep things exactly the way they were, and that she wished she could stop everything from changing. she got really nervous, like, talking about the future. she once told me that she could see herself now, and she could also see the kind of life she wanted to have - kids, husband, suburbs, you know - but she couldn't figure out how to get from point a to point b.
