His hands-wow-here we go: "ODE TO ___'S HANDS"
The backs of his hands are little boy's hands. Soft, short fingers;
his cuticles are a mess, and it looks like he bites his nails, tho he says
he doesn't. But they just scream, "Hi, I'm 12!" But then you turn them
over, and you get callouses, scars and lines (construction work). Old man's
hands! Really rough. It's amazing, the way they feel, I guess because
I have no frame of reference for rough hands. But it's like a cat's
tongue-rough, but not unpleasurable. And the emotional feelings in
them-maybe I read too much into this, but it's like his hands are symbolic
of his inner self-all the emotional scars that he has buried are manifest
in his hands. It's a grand juxtoposition with the rest of him.
A lot of his power is in his hands, too. He's not a big holding hands
in the mall type, but he can radiate power without touch-it's very odd.
He can give off a lot of heat just by being intense and not just from
physical exertion. It's almost supernatural.
