THIS HOLLOW GROUND | ELMSWOOD COUNTY

> People go missing here. They always have- after a while, you just get used to it. People lock their doors. No kids out after 4, no one person alone, the whole nine yards, y’know? Some say it’s the Perkins family, down by the river, so I’d stay the hell off the banks if I were you. Just look at what happened to that St. Claire kid, poor bastard.

eu•gene

/yoo-jeen/

noun

1. an act of defiance and irreverence. a determination to forget the past and forge new fires.

2. the haze of past traumas and regret follow in his footsteps. even the house of holy salvation cannot save him before he saves himself. there is peace in deliverance. there is peace in the quiet.

3. burn the witch, burn the witch, burn the witch. the town of salem massachusetts would know what to do with eugene st. claire.

4. there is a hand out-stretched in the darkness. he knows this hand, knows its ridges and callouses. it will not save him from his own mind, but the feeling of comfort is like nothing he’s ever felt. it feels a little like grace, like healing.

4. there is hope in the aftermath.

★★★ Tell me about some fears. That sounds good.

★ marci fears for her brother more than anything else in the world, but she also fears how alien he’s become to her. she just wants to help him and she worries that she might not be good enough.

★ gabe fears anonymity and reclusiveness. his personality is built up on illusions of grandeur and he makes himself big because he’s afraid he won’t like what he is when that’s all stripped away from him.

★ drew fears failure. she’s so driven, and she isn’t DESPERATE to prove herself, but she’s afraid of rejection, i think. she doesn’t like to be told she’s wrong.
