Summary
She looked bad. Her leathery, yellow skin was dull and blemished, fins torn, beady eyes weakly staring up at him, as if to say I’m too far gone, you can’t save me, I’m already dead. Her solid black pupils slid to the side, focusing on something. The baby.
He was bright, like the sun. Wilbur wonders if he’s ever seen it. Wilbur’s own knowledge of the sun is strained, it’s presence only ever gifting him harsh burns on his arms when he’s caught unaware by the morning. He thinks of a different, more muted sun, one that wraps those burns, swearing up a storm, complaining at him to take better care of yourself, bitch boy. Wilbur knelt, and made a decision.
Wilbur decides that this child deserves to see the sun.
(Wilbur goes mining, becomes a father, nearly kills the child. Y’know, the usual.)
