Bone Season 01: the Bone Season: a Novel
“I could hear him at his desk, writing away, hidden from me only by the drapes.
My eyes and nose were raw, my throat tight as a fist. For the first time in years, I wanted everything to vanish. I wanted everything to be back to normal, like it was when I was little, before I’d been ripped open by the æther.
I looked up at the canopy. No matter how much I sometimes wanted it, there was no normal. There never had been. “Normal” and “natural” were the biggest lies we’d ever created. We humans with ...our little minds. And maybe being normal wouldn’t suit me.
It was only when he turned on his gramophone that I started to get drowsy. I hadn’t been in his dreamscape long, but I’d done it without life support. I drifted into a doze. The crackling voices blurred together.
I must have slept for a while. When I woke, the drip was gone. In its place was a small plaster.
The day-bell tolled. Sheol I slept during the day, but it seemed I wasn’t going to sleep. There was nothing to do but get up and face him.MoreLess
