Bruno and Stanley always had a complex relationship. There was always a possible dream of a happy normal life, but always on the other side of a wall. A wall neither of them were capable of climbing.

Whether it was really the case or not, this is Bruno’s perception: if one could only dig deep enough, answers would be there. Not that this kind of analysis has proven to be very effective (CBT is where it’s at).
This sequence totally weirds me out. Which was part of the point. It is disturbing the stories we hang onto, and it is an awfully difficult thing to get through.
Ha! In a way this sequence was more about me than Bruno. This strip was always about me laying out me emotions pretty bare, which was at time a challenge, and at times like an everyday thing.
This series was how she (and I) explored belief. First hearing and recognizing, choosing against but still not being able to make the voice go away, until many years and experience allowed.
We are all alone, in ways, aren’t we? Sometimes we have to slog through the tough stuff alone, even if we have people around us who love us.
Or not! :)
Part of me used to hate me, as much as part of me loved me. Took a long time to straighten that out. Bruno helped.
She, as we find out, had to have a pin put in her knee after getting hit by a car. Thus the sword.
I truly wrote Doris to be Bruno’s guardian angel, so it was the obvious choice to have her there when Bruno woke up.
I imagine if you’re addicted to cigs and coffee, a week without and suddenly waking up — would be worth slipping back unconscious.
