If I had a nickel for every male podcast protagonist who took a sketchy isolated job in the middle of nowhere so he could work on his novel but didn't, I'd have two nickels.

Which isn't a lot but it's weird it happened twice.

Witches of East End // A Parching Imbued

[whlskr]

Saw someone call Mike shallow and they're just so wrong

Like, Mike finds purpose in helping others. Even in his writing where he is trying to process something super shitty he went through, he's living a fantasy where he still gets to save a kid he cared about.

Mike can't stop himself, either. It's his biggest flaw and biggest strength. He's spent his whole life trying to fix other people's problems.

Even with everything he's gone through after he took up position at Tower 4, he still can't leave knowing there might have been something, anything he could have done. It's the conversation where he asks Amber why she felt bad about the oil spill when she had no part in it. When he's talking to his friend in the bar about how he couldn't leave Mel. Mike is asking, "Why should I invest myself in this place when nothing here is my fault?"

But he can't ask that because he knows the answer. He's gonna help because it's the fucking right thing to do and because no one deserves to be abandoned or left behind.

Shallow? Mike wishes he could be shallow
