Summary
“To be frank, Thomas, you are nothing and no one outside the Vatican,” the late Holy Father had continued. “You have a family, that is true. But you must be distant person to them by now, a tragic ghost that sends them Christmas presents and writes them e-mails. I do not say this to be cruel, I am just telling you the facts of the matter. I will hear no argument; you will continue to serve the Church and God as you have done all your career.”

Summary
“I know this is difficult. I know you do not like this. But you are starving yourself, Thomas, and God would not see you starved. I would not see you starved.”
Thomas wonders what it says about him that one of those means more than the other— and what it means that this does not bother him as it should, this blasphemous thought, this sacrilegious reprioritization.
“I do not wish to argue with you, my dear Vincent,” Thomas says, voice quiet. “Your concern is kind, but— I am afraid this is only how I am.”
Vincent squeezes his hands.
“You are not your punishments,” Vincent tells him, firm, warm, insistent. “You are not your denial. You are not your sacrifice, Thomas, nor your hunger. You are not your starvation.” His hands shake Thomas’s, a rattle to keep his attention. “You are Thomas. You are human, and you are starving, and you should not be.”
