Nathan stands at his left. Mary stands at his right.
Neil doesn’t turn to look at them, but he can feel them there—one carved into his ribs, the other burned into his skin.
He is made of them.
Of his father’s brutality, his mother’s desperation. Of bruises layered over bruises, of fists and sharp words and the lesson that pain was the only thing he could count on.
Nathan’s voice is smooth, proud, as it murmurs in his ear.
"You were built for more than this, Nathaniel."
Mary’s whisper is sharp, urgent, dripping with every frantic mile they ever ran.
"You don’t understand what it means to survive."
Nathan had tried to shape him into something ruthless. Mary had tried to strip him down to something weightless.
And neither of them had ever asked what he wanted to be.
Neil closes his eyes.
Nathan’s presence is heavy, all iron and control and the scent of blood that will never wash away.
Mary’s is lighter, but just as cruel—a ghost that lingers, a reminder that even love can leave bruises.
They will always be here.
Because Neil is made of them.
Of a father who saw him as a tool, and a mother who saw him as a liability.
Of a life spent running, and a body full of evidence that he was never meant to survive this long.
His shoulders ache under the weight of them.
And no matter how far he goes, they will never leave.
Ghost guide for newly dead ghost.
Look, Max will use 100% of the track and George will use 100% of the FIA sporting regulations and who are we to say which one is more fun

My deepest darkest fantasy is that I collapse on the street and I am rushed to the hospital. They perform a bunch of tests and find out I am severely deficient in some kind of vitamin. Then I start taking the vitamin and I become the happiest cleverest person alive because all my problems were caused by this one deficiency
It’s funny but pretty it’s only funny if it happens to other peoples
