Perhaps I feel more at ease with all of this than I would've expected of myself because this is my second total life redirection in a year. Changed careers recently. [ ... ] Male escort to soldier for a paramilitary corps, if you can believe it. Not the kind of thing one plans for.
[ Not something he would have chosen for himself a couple years ago, but there it is. Midnight considers himself exceptional in a lot of ways, but not to the point where he expected extraordinary things to happen to him, one right after another, in the span of less than a year. ]
