Then he looks at me expectently. He insists tapping the spot. Looking to see if I will help him. I can only go "What are you doing bud What do you want There's nothing there.""

"The reason 'Otherhood' has been popular in fiction since at least the 19th century (with a decreasing amount of lurid pornographic impulses) is because it's a dramatically sound position to start from. Drama requires suffering and there's a bed of it there to exploit. All protagonists could be said to be others. It's their Otherhood that draws us to them"
