Why should I worry about something so stupid as who I am? I’m Thomas, son of Jupitre and Juno. Only they’re not really my parents. Melyssa isn’t really my sister, either. She’s such a pervert. I’m not sure why I’m with these people, pretending they’re my family, or why we’re stuck in a boring place like Omphalos. I don’t like anyone here. I definitely don’t like Danyel and Tayel. They’re too pretty to be boys. Boys are supposed to be ugly, like me. I don’t know why I have webbed ears. Sometimes I like throwing rocks at squirrels. People, too, if I can get them. They all think I’m ugly. I’m supposed to be ugly. Why should I like anyone? Seraphix keeps whispering things to my talisman. I don’t know why I accepted it. I don’t know why I listen to it. I don’t understand what it’s saying. What if I wasn’t mean and ugly? What if I didn’t feel this way? What if I could change? I don’t know why I have to change. It’s everyone, not me. It could be fun to change, just to see the look on Danyel’s face. I can’t help being curious.
