Summary
But Scratch knows him, sees right through to the inky black core of him where that pitiful thing roosts behind his ribs. Ichor and bone. Scratch knows why Alan is so tetchy with meeting people, why he doesn’t call home unless he absolutely has to, why things with Alice were sometimes so bad she would spend weekends at her parents house under the excuse ‘Alan’s got a deadline, he’s just so busy!’. Her parents always hated him, he doesn’t blame them. Maybe they could see the lie inside him, smell it through his pores like rancid sweat. If anyone gets too close, Alan is certain they would see it too.

Summary
Some days, he wonders if he should’ve stayed below. Alan will stand on the shore of Cauldron Lake, bare feet in the rocky sand with his trousers rolled up around his ankles as the waves drag him closer. Maybe he will walk right into the lake and never stop, simply end up floating on the lake-bed like Barbara Jagger. If he went down, would he ever come back up? Is the Dark Place waiting for him in the ocean, or has it fractured away into nothingness without Scratch there to hold it all together? Which came first; hell or the devil? Something in the back of his brain tells him that deep dark ocean still holds so much left unexplored, a world upon other worlds. One day, when the only one left of this story that remains is Alan Wake himself, he may return to it again.
