What the fuck is going on?!?!!
Wildest timeline: Chris gets out, returns home, Barbussy or no, and before long he will be back to nornal. Without stopping to reflect for even a moment what "normal" is.
The cycle continues forever; on and on it goes with nothing gained, not a single thing learned and not a single shred of remorse or self doubt. The delusions will continue, the weens will still try and dig a hole that has no end, but no hole can be dug that Chris isn't prepared to delve head first in already.
Speaking of delving head first into something dark and cold. The barbussy I hope remains unmolestER'd, wherever she is, I hope she is not with him.
But this much is certain, Chris will continue on as if nothing happened.
As the sun closes on a day, any shred of consequence is utterly lost on him. He wakes up in the morning and only lives on, the future is not a concern to him and the past is but a fleeting thought at most. Any and all progress in his story is in a way, pre determined... What happens happens. His decisions are entirely made in the moment after all.
Godspeed, you magnificantly disgusting bastard.
