    Summary

    In his defense, he hadn’t known the world would end when he went outside to rescue his cat and he’d be left with essentially nothing. If he had he’d have grabbed a binder or something. He wore those by day and taped at night. It wasn’t cheap, but he’d rather cough up the money than lay around unbound–even if it was just in the apartment. Unfortunately for him, the shitty KT tape he’d been wearing was completely worthless after one use.

    OR: Circumstances force Carl to explain to Donut that he's trans.

    Summary

    It has to be a Scree, or a spell, or a poison or something horrific that was about to burst out of my chest like that movie with the aliens. It had to be some outside force, some monster from the dungeon.

    Otherwise, why would I be freaking out about something as stupid as a haircut?

    ------------

    Missing scene from "The Gate of the Feral Gods" in which Katia cuts Carl's hair.

    Summary

    There was a note next to the running sink. I picked it up, simultaneously turning off the faucet. The sudden silence pressed on me. I didn’t look at the thing hanging from the ceiling. It turned slowly in a circle behind me, making the pipes creak ominously.

    Carl, the letter said on the back. I turned it around.

     

    This is my birthday present to you.

    Carl's 15th birthday.

    Summary

    Imani placed her small hand against my arm again, this time slowly, and gently. “I didn’t mean to startle you. You weren’t answering my calls.”

    “Or mine”, Donut said haughtily, jumping on my shoulder.

    Had they been in the saferoom this whole time? I couldn’t remember seeing them at all when I came in.

    “Uh... what’s up?” I asked, but I could already tell.

    This was an intervention.

    Carl finally gets a tiny moment to rest between all the trauma.

    Summary

    No. No.

    I healed myself again. Darkness continued to press against me, relentless. Raul yelled something. He was getting closer; I could tell by his voice. My health kept stuttering, despite the heals.

    My eyes, I thought. It was the only thing I could focus on. There was just too much going on, and none of it mattered. I was dead. Without sight, I was dead. Donut was dead.

    Carl loses both of his eyes during a battle. The situation seems hopeless, but the dungeon is not done with him yet.
