Oh. Yeah, um… I was pretty sure I matched a fire truck. He's a heavy sleeper. I'm sure he is. Dominic stepped back. If you wish to join your uncle, I'll be waiting outside. You should have time to get ready. Your uncle is a…heavy sleeper, also. Whaaaa…and then it hit me. Ew. Ew. Ew.

In the passage, the character expresses a realization about the state of someone who sleeps heavily, suggesting a humorous and somewhat awkward understanding of the situation. The mention of matching a fire truck adds to the comedic tone, indicating a mix of confusion and surprise regarding their surroundings and interactions.

As another character, Dominic, steps back, he offers the option to join their uncle while noting that he, too, is a heavy sleeper. This leads to a moment of dawning horror for the first character, who is struck by the uncomfortable implications of what that might mean. The narrative captures a blend of lightheartedness and distaste, enhancing the complexity of their experience.

People pontificate, "Suicide is selfishness." Career churchmen like Pater go a step further and call in a cowardly assault on the living. Oafs argue this specious line for varying reason: to evade fingers of blame, to impress one's audience with one's mental fiber, to vent anger, or just because one lacks the necessary suffering to sympathize. Cowardice is nothing to do with it - suicide takes considerable courage. Japanese have the right idea. No, what's selfish is to demand another to endure an intolerable existence, just to spare families, friends, and enemies a bit of soul-searching.

I believe there is another world waiting for us. A better world. And I'll be waiting for you there.
