Summary
Eddie considers his anger. How the shake in his hands felt better when it was from pain and exertion instead of his hyper-vigilance. How joining a fighting ring felt nice not just because it was a way of purging himself of this sharp-tooth jawed feeling in his chest, but because it made the thing he was wrestling with into something real. Something that could be beaten bloody with his own two goddamn fists.
The hospital tiles stare into him and Eddie cracks his knuckles again and again, until they’re sore under his insistence, refusing to give in anymore. Eddie thinks of swallowing himself down. Thinks of the military efficiency of packing up a box so tight that nothing shifts inside. Thinks of holding back this, this howling inside of him so hard that it held everything back with it.
What have you got, if you do everything and never experience it at all?
Or:
Eddie takes Buck home, afterwards.
