Inspired by the song Real Men by Mitski, this is another piece about Aether's trauma, this time focusing on his war trauma. The main theme here is how he feels like he has to be a "real man", ignore his pain and needs, and just be a good soldier. If you want to know what's really gut-wrenching, in this piece he's around 7 or 8 years old. Let that sink in. Seriously open the door it's snowing the sink is gonna catch a cold.
