Habakkuk's Complaint

Every day I pray to be the very best version of myself, that I shine more brightly by the day, and I operate not half dim, but full wattage.

The seventy-third free, unedited chapter of my upcoming book, “The Heist at Cordia Aquarium” is now available on its website (or click here to read from the beginning).
An earthquake shakes the room: another of Barclay's feet crashing down.
Waylon's body won't move, though.
He stares out at the man, suspended within the core of his own mind. Blank, placid, empty, and weak. Not even enough strength to spur a thought.
"Where's Avery?" Barclay asks, his voice an iceberg cutting through stone.
Fear pulses once in Waylon's chest. Thoughts surge. A landslide tumbling through his mind — alongside his disembodied form. They pepper him: chunking pieces away until only an abstract sphere remains. Devoid of feeling, yet full of questions. Why aren't I moving? Am I— am I okay? Am I just going to stand here and let him catch me?
Barclay cracks his other set of knuckles. "Staying quiet, huh? If she's hurt... Well, it's not going to be good for you."
No.
It's an answer that burns in his stomach. Guttural, desperate, and not his own. It sets his chest aflame and straightens his cowering spine. Physical sensations that he recognizes, but where's the feeling? The emotions?
No, this can't be it. Not yet.
Barclay nearly shatters the earth between them with the fall of another boot. "I recommend you don't resist."
[...]
The final print version will have art inserts. Last week, I got a new one in from Stella. I love it and what to share it (go look at her other art after, too). This depicts the end of chapter 33, “A Pillar”

G-d it's really 3 different times that mulder has almost certainly had to launch protracted 'getting scully to eat' campaigns, after her abduction when she was 'maintained' who knows how for 3 months and had to get back on her feet, with the cancer and treatments and recovery 2 years later and again with the gut shot 2 years after that. How many times do you think he sat by her bed and tried to distract her while she struggled through a protein drink? Did the 'oh I just accidentally made too many sandwiches or pieces of toast or they put in extra fries or "free" dumplings maybe you'll take these off my hands' or planted them in a diner until she ate some soup and crackers or a plate of scrambled eggs or a milkshake while trying not to seem to insist too much, ie enough to trigger an "I'm fine" and a stalking off. No wonder he's hung up on the non-fat yogurt cups and salads with a teaspoon of dressing after multiple times of joining in to will her back from half starvation in order to get her strong enough to recover from near death experiences. Like, we have done this when it was unavoidable due to miserable circumstances, why are you doing it yourself on purpose?? 😥
Though perhaps that's a reason for her, the familiarity of completely utilitarian food that's always 'safe.'

Paul's Prayer for the Ephesians
That He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit into the inner man, That Christ may make His home in your hearts through faith, that you, being rooted and grounded in love, May be full of strength to apprehend with all the saints what the breadth and length and height and depth are and to know the knowledge-surpassing love of Christ, that you may be filled unto all the fullness of God. — Ephesians 3:16-19 | Recovery Version (REC) The Recovery Version of the Holy Bible © 2009 Living Stream Ministry.

a continuation of sorts to this piece.
Steven’s panic attacks always hit like a bullet to the chest.   He knows exactly what that feels like, now; he can adequately relate the metaphor in context and it’s extremely applicable here- his ribs creak as he struggles for breath- wheezes.   It was just a nightmare.  It was just a nightmare. (Then again, he’s always struggled with realising the distinction between his dreams and reality.) 
[Steven?  Hey, Steven, you okay?] -It had been hard to take a breath with a hole in his lungs and he remembers the way the second bullet punched through their body, ripping through skin and muscle and bone , remembers the way Marc’s balance tipped, the way he’d tried to stay on his feet as long as he could. Instinctively.  Stubbornly.  He still swears he can hear the softly lapping waves against the stone steps, the steady  drip  drip  drip  that echoed around the ancient burial chambers.  Swears he can still feel the way their heart pounded in their body- Until it didn’t. His knees feel weak now [Steven- Steven, hey, take a breath for me, buddy-], and despite his best efforts, it’s like there’s cavewater in his mouth and throat, suffocating him- drowning him- he can’t think, he can’t see anything- his eyes are squeezed tightly shut and he rocks back and forth and back and forth and he thinks Wake up, please, please I just have to wake up- There’s a pressure building in the empty space where his heart should be and his head feels light and his throat constricts and clicks.  He’s terrified, he can’t make heads or tails of the right way up- wake up wake up wake upwakeupwake- ‘Steady, hermanito.’ Steven’s eyes fly open and he’s almost startled to realise there’s no one physically in the room with him for a moment before his gaze immediately snaps to the only reflective surface, the window.  He hasn’t been asleep for long- it’s still dark out, and there, just in the corner of the glass, there’s movement- It hadn’t sounded like Marc, but... that could only mean.. ‘M-Marc?’  Steven tries for words [he checks, just in case], his voice raw and his jaw is clenched, making coherency even harder to attain. ‘Yeah, Steven?’  comes the response, but not from the figure in his reflection.  His muscles ache as he tries to sit up, to get a better view.  ‘I’m here.’ His tongue refuses to cooperate and he groans- his limbs feel like lead.  It helps to know that Marc is there, that he isn’t alone, but for some reason tonight his body is stuck in the past and even as he desperately tries to unclench his fingers from their white-knuckled grip on sweat-dampened sheets, to catch his breath, the sting of panic doesn’t lessen.  He wants to close his eyes again, he wants to scream.  There’s an ache in his gut that pulls and twists and it’s got him caught in the eye of a hurricane as his nightmare fades. ‘Keep your eyes open, Steven.’  and he knows that voice- that’s Jake-  ‘You had a pesadilla, a dream.  You’re awake now.’ He’s sure he mishears something even as comfort washes over him, becalming him.  Then he pauses-  Jake’s words pull a short huff of incredulous laughter from his chest like a cork and he’s able to suck in a deep inhale before his eyes latch on the reflection. His expression furrows for a beat as he tries again to wrestle with words.  ‘Uh, I had.. I had a baked potato last night, mate.’  he says through stuttered pants, swallowing hard, trying to process what he’d heard with a muddled mind. Steven finds himself chuckling again breathlessly.  ‘I haven’t had mexican food since-’ ‘A nightmare,’  Jake corrects himself, but there’s a smile in his voice.  ‘You were sleeping, hermanito.  But now you’re awake.’ The ‘and safe’ is left unsaid, unnecessary. ‘Oh,’  Steven says, and he can hear Marc snickering about quesadillas.  His heart isn’t pounding near as hard, now, although it still feels as though it skips every few beats.  He rubs at his chest.  ‘R-right, sorry-’ His reflection waves off the apology before it can even truly begin.  ‘No need for sorries, Steven,’ he says, and gestures to the wall beneath the window, where a small night light in the shape of a moon illuminates the floorboards.  ‘I’m just returning the favour.’ Steven’s smile trembles ever so slightly at the edges, and the cold feeling in his chest is slowly warming, pleased to have been helpful.  The fragments of his nightmare feel further away.
