[attr="class","samcam"] Memo rolls his eyes, mouth twitching up in a smile. “Yeah, and? My last name is Marceliño, but I can’t drink tequila like it’s water.” He pulls apart a piece of tortilla and mops at some of the juice on his plate. “It may be in your heritage, but it’s not a given.” His eyes flicked up from his plate at the sudden shift in Alex’s tone. Locked me up at home.He can feel the color draining from his face. In his mind’s eye, he sees the lingering form of his parents, escorting him to the bathroom, and back to his room, the click of the lock on the door and the slip of the deadbolt they had installed, just for him. Because of what I am.Memo swallowed, mouth suddenly dry. Desperately, he wanted to be somewhere else, somewhere that wasn’t this room where his eyes were prickling with tears. He coughed, rubbing at the apple of his throat, hoping to mask some of the emotion welling up within him. To him, it sounded like Alex’s parents were just worried about him-- in a terrible, horrible, suffocating way. The thought made him sick, that he’d been so indoctrinated into this-- this idea that strict parenting was a victimless crime. “I--,” he started, then stopped, heart hammering in his chest. “I’ll be right back,” he said, gently sliding his half-finished plate onto the baking sheet and slipping off the bed, walking stiffly out of the bedroom without a backward glance. It was wrong, he was wrong, what Alex’s parents had done to him was awful, just like what his parents had done to him was awful. This was just the-- the forced reprogramming talking. He squeezed his eyes shut. He needed to go back in there and tell Alex that. But he couldn’t move. He was a statue, growing into the floor, and he couldn’t even comprehend why.
