Have This

ETHAN BECAUSE I CAN

His dad dissapeared, as we all know, and his mother blamed him. Idk why, she did, im tired. She was like oh this is the only person I have left in my life. Mine. I mean like she loved him but the relationship wasn't close to ever being healthy. Ever.

She like verbally and emotionally abused him, just like "No one other than me will ever love you because you suck and that's why you need me" which is always fun

Ethan only had one friend. One. His name was Oliver. He was a cervitaur. 

His mom didn't like that he had someone other than her and just. Killed Oliver. In front of him. He was like eleven. His mom made him believe Oliver was going to kill him, she was only protecting him and this is why he shouldn't rely on anyone but her. And he believes her. Why wouldn't he? His relationship with his mother was perfectly normal and healthy and she promised she'd never EVER lie to her at all like ever so.

Ethan's teachers didn't like him, he was angry, he wasn't good with school work, he got into trouble a lot, plus he's a traumatized neurodivergent kid and the world just hates us. Of course they wouldn't care that he looked like he had never taken a bath in his life and wore the same clothes and he looked like he was about to starve and wouldn't socialize with the other kids at all. Course they wouldn't care.

Anyway his bestie is dead and he's sad, just like omg my bsf tried to off me and he was my only support and I can trust no one but my MOM. Anyway bout to skip school to sit on his grave, you coming with?

Eventually something clicks. Like omg my mom gaslight gatekeep girlbossed me. How could she.

He doesn't do anything. He's scared.

Ayo, he lives in a field, on a farm, and someone threw their cigarette out of a car window, and this iz why you shouldn't smoke. You'll burn poor little goat boys' houses down and kill their mother.

He lives, miraculously. Not for long though. Hungry parasite ridden guy kills him. Almost.

The end.
