    Summary

    Andrew Joseph Minyard didn't do regrets. But letting Neil in, allowing himself to want, for letting Neil slip through his fingertips- it was the closest he would get to feeling regret. It had been fourteen years since he last saw Neil, since Neil was taken right from under his grasp by his psycho-killer father and lost forever and Andrew had to make peace with that, had to stop expecting Neil to walk through his front door like he had never left. Except, one day, it all but happened. One day, a small kid with horribly cut short platinum blonde hair, striking blue eyes that plagued Andrew's dreams and nightmares, freckles and an achingly familiar horrible fashion sense showed up at his office door with the strangest question. "Are you Andrew Joseph Minyard, yes or no?" The kid asked in a British accent. Andrew could only nod. "Oh good." The kid said, suddenly unsure of themself. "Cause I think you're my dad." What the fuck?

    Summary

    The doctor took a pause, which Nathaniel was able to use to ask, “what about my leg?”

    The two pigs had the audacity to look surprised. The doctor looked over at them with a hint of confusion. “You didn’t tell him?”

    Towns shook his head as Browning said, “you told us not to.”

    Dr. Byrd nodded her head in approval and turned back to the bed. “Nathaniel…” she trailed off, reevaluating her words. “Would you mind if I sit?” and only after his own nod did she. “The damage done to your leg… it was unlike what most of the staff at this hospital had ever seen. The surgeons tried to save it, but…” She looked down at where his legs were and Nathaniel did too, only to feel himself pale at what he found.

    “The surgery took about three hours,” Dr. Byrd continued. “The only reason why it took so long was because the surgeons really did try to save your leg. They did. Amputations usually take only half that time. Eventually, Dr. McCoy called it. Because of the damage done to your leg, we couldn’t wake you up to ask. It had to go. I’m sorry.”

    Summary

    “A rabbit's foot may bring good luck to you, but it brought none to the rabbit.”

    A rabbit without its leg will eventually be eaten by the Wolf.

    Andrew reached out his hand to touch the blanket where Neil’s leg should be.
    Nothing.

    Nothing. Nothing. Nothing.

    They were nothing.
    And this was nothing.
    And there was nothing there.
    Not anymore.

    A single cuff around Neil’s wrist was easily opened by Andrew. Methodically without touching skin.

    Freedom for the Rabbit, freedom or certain death.
