Maybe he’s just not copping to whatever it is because he and Wolfgang are so close together, because they still haven’t let go of him, because their heart is still thudding and he can feel it. He wants to understand: why is Wolfgang ashamed, why is he still being touched (why has he continued to be touched all week), what is that cloud, what are those ribbons, why are the lights out, what does Wolfgang mean by ‘tools.’ He can’t ask it all at once. He can’t ask some of it at all.
