Thinking about how Jessica pulling Sam into a kiss, and him immediately holding her face. The two holding each other closely, where the world seemingly fades away for both of them. She's everything to Sam, it's obvious and beautiful. And it was taken away all to soon, all too sudden.

Just rambling / putting my thoughts down...
I think what’s truly tragic is that KDJ might have, given enough time and love, learned to love himself. Towards the end of the novel, it was clear he was starting to accept that he’s loved, but he has not yet accepted that he’s worthy of love.
But. You can see him slowly coming around to the idea that perhaps, just perhaps, he does deserve a happy ending. You can see it in his tiny, fragile dream of living together with all his loved ones in a big house. A person with such great ambitions in tearing the Gods themselves down from their throne, and that’s literally all he wants out of life, that’s his happy ending... (Great, now I’m SUPER sad.)
But whatever amount of self-acceptance he had scraped together was completely destroyed when he found out that he was the cause of all his companions’ pain and suffering, that he caused YJH’s suffering, that he was nothing more than a hypocritical sinner.
It triggered his freefall back into self-loathing. That last act of self-sacrifice was less sacrifice, imo, and more a desperate act of atonement. He no longer dreams of his happy ending, because he thinks he doesn’t deserve it.

Burning
Just pop a pill and move along,
You don't get to lie in bed until you've sold your heart
For a dream that brings you no joy.
You haven't heard it all until your
teeth are rotting, plucked out
in another's heart.
It's a dog eat dog world out there,
they'll tear you apart
Unless you do it first,
Fangs in your arms
And brains in your buccal cavity,
Upturned memories sacrificed
For a semblance of sanity.
"Look at how I've got my life in order"
You speak through grinded bones when really,
waking up takes about the same effort of it all.
So pretend you're not sinking
Because even musicians on the Titanic kept playing
till their souls were torn apart.
Because we're all slow motion trainwreck hearts and
emptied out heads
Pretending to be alive.
Inhaling oxygen means you're slowly
burning yourself alive.
That's why you're legally
burnt out when
you're shivering in the cold.
Because really, you don't get to sleep
Until you've run yourself into the ground
And when your legs are strewn across the sky
You'll get to stay in and sleep for a day.
And sew them back on the next.
You're not burning, it's all in your head.
You're not drowning, you're just lying in bed.
And really,
You're not dying until you are dead.

I love familect so much. whenever someone looks slightly uncomfortable we ask "u okie, (name)?" in a sweet little baby voice. when someone is talking to just talk we say "my dog ate a cicada". when we don't wanna share we tell the other person "you be jesus". instead of asking what happened, we say "whaaa happa" in a mickey mouse voice.

Christmas as a cultural icon is starting to get really dystopian in a climate sense, december has historically been a time of year in which there would be snow in a significant portion of europe and north america, and the fact that its not even icy this time of year and all the christmas songs and decorations reference a time of year that will likely never exist in the same way again in my life time is so strange.

it's such a bummer that losing control of your emotions only makes the entire situation worse in really embarrassing personal ways. losing control of my emotions should give me pyrokinesis.
