You could go for a swim. It would be easy, easier than anything else, and yet whatever it was that drove El into the water... it's something you don't have. Maybe it's testament to how fucked up you are, that you could keep on living after Ray was gone. Maybe El really did love him more than you did, and that's why she couldn't keep going without him. Maybe you've never been more than a shell.
You don't know. What you do know is that Vai's next suggestion is far harder. Already shaking her head when she begins, you're quick to put a stop to that. "Nah. Can't go home. Too many- to many people there. Red, an' his cat. An' ghosts. House's full'a ghosts."
Abruptly the head shaking stops as nausea fills your stomach and dizziness your brain. Blinking to clear your spinning vision, you stare back out at the setting sun. So bright. So pretty. So uncaring.
"Nah, I'mma... I'mma stay here. Dock's're basically home 'nyways. An' I still got more gods t'curse."
