"How..." I don't think I really want to know. "You mean when I was..." I don't want to say 'a pirate'. It sounds stupid, even if it is true. "Never mind."
I take a shaky breath. I don't want to cry again, so I'm not going to. I do keep my hold on his shoulder, though, just to ground me. "I don't know, for sure. I guess I'm just wondering. About all of it. I want to know everything, and no one will tell me anything clearly because they're scared I might. Die or explode or something."
