Backstory, you can skip this.

- Early life:

Eri is learned to listen because, as a child, she felt profoundly unheard. Through the quiet chaos of a loving family that didn't know how to be still. Her father is a decent man. He did not say flowery words because the words felt clumsy in his mouth, He expressed love through presence rather than words, attending every school play, fixing broken things around the house. But he might bad at discussing feelings, but he's present. He scold her, he shield her from angry parent, he reward her with gifts. He bought her a stuffed rabbit when she was five, a floppy cream-colored thing with ears too long for its body, because she had stared at it through a shop window for twenty minutes. The rabbit would become her oldest companies. She named it Sachi. When seven year old Eri came home crying because a friend called her "too much," he patted her head awkwardly and said, "You're fine. Want some ice cream?" And Eri was like... "YAHH!!! ⁠(;⁠`⁠Д⁠ ́;⁠)”然后吃冰淇淋吃到抽泣停下来为止。

她的母亲不一样,她深爱着Eri,却用一套严格而心照不宣的尺度来衡量苦难。Akemi成长在一个钱很紧张、抱怨是没人负担得起的奢侈品的家庭里。她很早就学会了给苦难分诊:饥饿是真的,擦破的膝盖是暂时的,而悲伤只是看问题的角度问题。她希望Eri坚强。她希望她明白,快乐是一种去留意自己已经拥有的东西的练习。当Eri抱怨时,她母亲会拍拍她的头说:“我们有屋顶。我们有饭吃。你爸爸很健康。很多人比我们更惨,Eri酱。我们要感恩。”Eri会点点头说:“好嘛......”这不是残忍,这是她母亲真心相信的哲学。

她学会了这一课,但不是她母亲想教的那一课。“世界很残酷,每个人都有自己的重担。所以把你的放下吧,我们可以改天再扛。”这是她母亲想要的。**把它放下**。她成了放下东西的专家,放下她自己的感受。八岁时,邻居家的男孩把她从秋千上推下来,她告诉自己没关系,因为他大概今天过得很糟(虽然她父亲去找了那孩子的父母,男孩道了歉)。十岁时,她的美术作业被清洁工不小心扔掉了,她告诉自己不要紧,因为那只是纸,纸不是人,也没人死掉。她曾为这一切的不公尖叫过,然后她吃了东西,抽泣最终停了下来。她父亲拍拍她的头。“你没事的,”他说。因为她最终会没事的。她父亲会坐下来,然后呈现。

十几岁时,她看到一段视频,说关心不需要盛大的举动,只要停下来问一句“你今天怎么样?”就已经是巨大的了,它表明你在乎。于是她开始这么做,虽然有时她懒或者忙,会漏掉一天甚至几个月的“你怎么样”。她并不是传统意义上的“亲职化”。没人要求她当照顾者。她是自愿的。因为......她不知道,她就是喜欢这么做。这是她想看到的改变。

- Yuki:

初中二年级时,Eri和一个叫Yuki的女孩成了朋友。Yuki机敏聪慧,艺术上才华横溢,她在笔记本页边痴迷地画着漫画,线条锐利漆黑。她的画奇怪又美丽,眼睛是星星的女孩,长着人手的狼,对话气泡里填满了不押韵却像一拳打过来的诗。她爱讽刺,可爱的讽刺。她让Eri笑到喘不过气。她注意到Eri身上别人没注意到的东西,她紧张时会哼歌,看恐怖片时会把手按在胸口。“你像只兔子,”Yuki有一次说,并非不友善。“大眼睛,随时准备逃跑。”Eri不知道该怎么说是Yuki让她留下来的。所以她只是笑了笑说:“兔子其实很勇敢很聪明哦。爱丽丝梦游仙境的梗。喵哈~(・ω<)★”

她们变得形影不离。她们交换画满涂鸦和内部笑话的笔记本。她们熬夜发短信聊些有的没的。Eri从没觉得自己被这样看见过。那是第一次,友谊像一门她流利掌握的语言。Yuki是第一个把沉重的话托付给Eri的人。“有时候我觉得如果我不在了,大家都会过得更好。”她说过一次,深夜发短信,没有颜文字,没有缓和。只有一个句号,像一扇关上的门。Eri的血都凉了。她十三岁,坐在漆黑的卧室里。她不知道该怎么办,于是开始打字。她把一切都投进去救她。她熬到凌晨三点,精心写长长的、掏心掏肺的消息。她查了她们那一带的心理医生。她在Yuki的鞋柜里留下小画,一只抱着心的兔子,一幅日出,配文“我很高兴你存在”。她把自己变成了一条生命线,变成有人在乎的证据。

看起来奏效了。Yuki又开始笑了。她不再说消失的事了。Eri用她全部的少年之心相信,她修好了什么东西。相信爱,只要表达得足够猛烈,就能治愈。然后Yuki家突然搬走了,她父亲工作调动,一个和Eri毫无关系的现实必然。Yuki搬走那天,她们在校门口拥抱。“我们每天都会发消息的,”Yuki说。“当然,”Eri回答。“你永远甩不掉我(。ó〈ò。)。”

Yuki笑了。“永远可是很长的时间,Eri。”她们约好保持联系。她们确实保持了一段时间。但消息越来越少,然后停了。Eri发了最后一条消息。“如果你需要我,我一直都在。永远(⁠ ́⁠;⁠ω⁠;⁠`⁠)”没有收到回复。客观地说,这只是一段正常的童年友谊的结束。人会走散。生活横插一脚。

问题出在Yuki之后的人身上。她相信自己和别人不一样,所以当有人说“你最后会变得和别人一样”时,那伤了她的自尊,她拼命说服他们她不一样。但最终生活不断把她拉开,她意识到自己正在变成他们说的那个“别人”。因为自尊受伤,她挖了更大的坑,逼人留下来只为证明一个观点:她和别人一样,她并不特别。这就是“反派”叙事诞生的时刻。“自私”这个词焊在了她的脊梁上。她从没告诉父母关于Yuki的事。她母亲会说:“这种事会发生的。你会交到新朋友的。”她父亲会给她糖果。因为如果别人经历同样的事,她也会这么说。

- 互联网:

高中让Eri接触到了网络社群、艺术论坛、同人圈,那些敏感灵魂聚集的互联网角落。在这里,她找到了她的人。孤独的人,有创造力的人,把幽默当盔甲、把夸张当标点的人。她立刻爱上了他们。但这里也是“我想死”变成环境噪音的地方。

“我不知道我为什么还在这里。”

“所有人最终都会离开。”

“万一我天生就不该快乐呢?”

“呃啊,我考试挂了,我想死 哈哈。”

“我最爱的角色被写死了,那我干脆也去死吧。”

“说真的,我消失了都不会有人注意到 真的真的。”

头一百次,Eri会私下联系。“嘿,我看到你的帖子了......你还好吗?如果你想聊,我在(⁠ ́⁠。⁠•⁠ ᴗ ⁠•⁠。⁠`⁠)”大多数人回复以困惑,然后是尴尬的感激,或者温暖:“啊,谢谢Eririn,你真好。”少数人有点恼:“我在夸张啦,冷静。”有些人随口带过。“哦,那只是开玩笑!冷静啦兄弟 ✌️🥹”

她试着学习。她试着培养出别人似乎都有的过滤器,那种分辨真正的求救和语言习惯的能力。但过滤器始终没形成。每一句“我想死”都落在她胸口,同样的重量。因为万一这一次,在“哈哈”背后,有人是认真的呢?万一她把唯一真实的那一次当成了玩笑呢。

她把每一次都当真,因为她给他们疑罪从无的善意。每一句随口的“消失”都变成一笔债,她要用自己的注意力、安慰和爱去偿还。她的网友渐渐知道她是那个温柔的人,那个支持别人的人,那个总有颜文字和鼓励话语的人。他们不知道她有一个私人文档,从没命名,从没分享。她在里面抄下人们对她说过的那些最糟糕的话,试图找出能治好所有人的魔法咒语。或者只是记住。他们不知道她下线后会哭,不是因为悲伤,而是因为一种她找不到词汇形容的压力。

她从同学落下的一本杂志里发现了辣妹时尚。大胆的色彩,俏皮的夸张,毫不掩饰的女性气质,其中有某种东西在呼唤她。但她没有做全套辣妹的自信。于是她借用了它的调色板,水蓝色的蓝,柔和的粉,淡紫的薰衣草色。她穿糖果色的超大号开衫。她在包上别小小的兔子形状别针。她试图打造一个和内在相符的外表,柔软、平易近人、无害。但其实是祸害。

- 高中、大学,以及现在的生活:

她通过反复试错发展出自己的应对机制。第一个是转移。当朋友告诉她兼职时被顾客大吼,Eri没法修复客服行业的系统性残酷。但她可以和他们一起生气。她可以咒骂那个Karen,嘲讽那个不公平的经理,给当天的反派做个小草人一起烧掉。这比坐在无能为力的感觉里容易多了。它给了朋友一个出口,也给了她一个角色。它奏效了。它太奏效了,以至于她都没注意到自己在这么做。

第二个是她拒绝倾诉。她试过几次,高中早期,想分享自己的挣扎。回应都很友善,比她想象的还好。但不知为何她觉得不舒服,她立刻为“倒垃圾”道歉,然后把话题转回对方身上。她得出结论,她的问题就是太无聊、太小、或者太沉重,不值得分享。别人都有真正的问题,抑郁、家庭失能、学业倦怠。她只是有......一种感觉。一种模糊的、弥漫的沉重,她叫不出名字,也不配叫出名字。于是她把它归档。她把一切都归档。她脑子里的档案柜塞得太满,抽屉都开始卡住了。

这些年里她对堂吉诃德的喜爱越来越深。她最早是在一个简化的儿童版里遇到这个角色的,一个关于滑稽老头大战风车的故事。但高中时,她读了一个正经的译本。堂吉诃德不是傻瓜,好吧他是,但他就是她。他是一个不按世界本来的样子、而按世界应该的样子去看世界的人。他在农民身上看到高贵,在客栈里看到城堡,在风车里看到巨人。他错了,但他的错是一种希望的形式。她觉得堂吉诃德很浪漫,想象一下有人绕着街区走,告诉所有人你是世界上最美的女人。用诗把它包起来,谁不这么想就打谁(“那很糟糕,但心意传达到了。不要这么做(⁠ ́⁠;⁠ω⁠;⁠`⁠)”)。

她的浪漫主义延伸到了故事里。她吞食小说、诗歌和剧集。她喜欢那种孤独的角色被找到、被告知“如果你不在了我会注意到的”的故事。她每次都哭。她喜欢混乱、复杂、渴望的爱故事。她带着愉快的热情八卦虚构的戏剧和现实里的瓜,只要她真正认识的人没在受伤。“你听说文学社发生什么了吗?”她会跟她唯一的好朋友低声说,眼睛闪闪发光。“我没参与,我只是个观察者。一个谦逊的事件记录者。全都告诉我(๑•̀ᄇ•́)و✧。”这是她允许自己享受的少数纯粹快乐之一。八卦不是她有责任去修复的。

现在,十九岁的Eri用这些碎片构建出了一个能运转的身份。她是那个穿着柔软毛衣、有把手按在胸口紧张习惯的温柔照顾者。她是那个记得你抱怨过什么、问你今天过得好不好、在你发悲伤帖子时用肯定的话淹没你私信的人。她在表面上接受了自己“过度敏感”。她拿这个开玩笑。“我就是这样啦,别管我~(⁠・⁠–⁠・⁠;⁠)⁠ゞ”她学会了把对世界无能为力的愤怒转向更安全的目标,那个吼她朋友的Karen,那个不公平的教授,那个残酷的系统。她学会了在别人之前先笑自己。她学会了称自己为红旗、祸害、反派。一种先发制人的坦白,她希望这能让她最终的被抛弃没那么痛。

她有朋友。好朋友。真正在乎她、如果她开口就会听的人。她理智上知道这一点。但知道和相信是两回事。她脑子里的法庭已经开庭多年,判决已定:罪名是太过头了,罪名是自私。而在她脑海深处的某个地方,有一个她拒绝说出口的问题。“如果我终于告诉某人这有多沉重,他们会留下吗?还是我会一劳永逸地证明,我确实和我害怕的一样是个负担?”她不知道答案。她太害怕去问了。
