Summary
It hasn’t always been like this. You’re not quite sure when it started, only that it did, at some point, when you weren’t paying attention and something slipped through your fingers.
You’d like to think that there was a point when you knew what to do with your hands, is all, instead of this half-light you find yourself in. Where once you would have run them through his hair, you hesitate.
You don’t think it should feel like this.

Summary
Shaggy-dog, noun:
An extremely long winded story, anecdote or joke, that – despite its excessive narration – terminates in an anticlimax. That is to say, that preconceived notions of typical story structure is, in itself, an undoing. That is to say, that the human desire for closure is nothing but a comedic device meant to humiliate and infuriate.

In which Roy considers the past 15 years and the concept of inevitability.
