V
What is this presence?
He gives other him a name.
J
That's what the new syllables start with.
There's an alignment to self, but…
But what?
His shoulders bear another load.
“I can do it”, he convinces himself.

Two souls in one body.
Indistinguishable by anything but letters.
An unforeseen character development.
Desperate.
Merging, fighting for distance.
One lung breathes, garnering oxygen as if deprived for months.
