Fub was happy on his own.
At least that’s what he told people.
Fub was alone.
Fub was lonely.
The others hurt Fub.
They others didn’t mean to hurt Fub, but just being there hurt him.
Fub didn’t want to hurt.
But Fub didn’t want to be lonely.
Fub closed his eyes and imagined another Fub.
The other Fub was happy.
The other Fub knew he was happy.
The other Fub had friends.
(Fub had friends, but they were blurry friends.)
The other Fub didn’t need to dream.
The other Fub knew what to say.
The other Fub drifted wherever he wanted to drift.
Fub drifted where the cloud took him.
The cloud of Fub was comfortable... but it hurt the others.
The others didn’t want to come too close too Fub.
So Fub never really saw the others.
The others never really saw Fub.
Fub was lonely.
Fub was alone.
Fub preferred to be alone.

Such a lot in this little
Such a lot in this little series. So many Fubs, on their own clouds that make others feel uncomfortable. I have such a clear image of Fub and his cloud. Different from your usual, Pepsoid, and one that will stick in the mind.
