Summary
Stede sighs, and for the first time he looks as tired as Ed. As everyone does nowadays. Holding themselves together by whatever means necessary. “It can’t all be about survival, can it?”
It hits Ed with all the force of something he’d thought lost to him forever: the idea that there could be more. He’d stopped thinking in terms beyond eating, sleeping and breathing. Sure, he, Izzy, Fang and Ivan have been looking for something, searching for someplace safe, but that place has been growing more and more abstract as time goes on. The more it becomes clearer and clearer that nowhere is safe anymore.
Ed stopped wanting for anything beyond putting one foot in front of the other because he figured the only safety lay in having nothing to lose.
“We have to have something to live for, don’t we?” Stede is saying, and challenges the entire worldview Ed has been depending on since the world ended.
