ok so as the long walk book draws to a close I’m increasingly upset about how traumatized Ray is about how his mother basically sexually assaulted him to make sure his encounter with Jimmy didn’t “turn him gay” and how much it weighs on him each step of the walk
I need to talk to someone about this but like it doesn’t seem like people care? Or know? I’m confused. The way Ray thinks of himself sounds like he’s so lost and full of self loathing and I just need to comfort this lil kid
