What it says on the title?

I really enjoyed this story but I couldn’t accept that that’s how it ends.

Self indulgent fix it, is what this is.

I love both characters exceedingly and I want to do this for them and perhaps for Burroughs for the wonderful gift that this was despite the pain it symbolized for him. My life will never be the same.

This work has 4-5 main Chapters. Chapters 1-4 and an epilogue. Each chapter has like 3 parts.

"Anybody else you'd like to ask me about? No one? A kid named Allerton, maybe? It's why you came back, isn't it?" "I was getting around to it."

A portrait of Eugene Allerton

Chapter 6 of Pity, the small change of love

Eugene takes a moment to seek out Mary, watching as she aims a toy gun at the shot glass balanced on the head of some bespeckled man he's never met. Mary laughs at this strange playact of violent trust, eyes bright as the round plastic bullet hits the man square in the forehead. "Ha! You're dead!" she cackles, as the man shakes his head and mutters, "Shot down again. Never trust a pretty face."
