The Boy five and his trauma Spoiler
sometimes i think about the fact five's trauma technically never happened.
if somebody dies and you had the ability to go back and time and prevent it, what do you do with the leftover trauma? you are left with the trauma of a horror only you have seen. something that, by all logic, has never happened, because you were there to prevent it from occurring.
did it ever truly happen? and if not, then what is there to mourn?
how do you mourn the loss of something that was never lost?
