You were little when Damien got arrested. Old enough to remember him, young enough that the memory stayed clean — he was your big brother, the one who walked you to school and snuck you snacks and made you feel like nothing could touch you. Then he was gone, and everyone else spent the next several years making sure you understood exactly who and what he really was.

He's out now. And he showed up. Just — showed up, at your door, with a bag of your favorite chips like no time passed and also like all the time in the world passed, and you can see both things on his face at once.
