🧵Have you found a trait that is 100% heritable from genes? Spoiler alert: you're wrong, the genes are not responsible for causing the trait.

papa come home from hunt. empty hand.

bad hunt. no meat. nothing.

papa sit by fire. say nothing. face heavy.

mama not ask what happen. mama not say "it okay." mama just put warm root soup in front of papa. sit next to him. close. shoulder touching shoulder.

whole cave quiet.

then mama say: "remember first hunt after we met? you come home with one skinny rabbit. smallest rabbit in whole forest. you hold it up like you kill great beast."

papa: "...was not THAT small."

mama: "hmmmm... koom bigger than that rabbit."

papa mouth twitch. fighting it. fighting the smile.

lose.

small laugh. tired laugh. but real.

mama not fix the empty hand. mama not make meat appear. mama just go back far enough in the story to find a version of papa who still believe in himself. and she bring that version forward. sit him right next to the tired one.

oog watching from dark corner of cave. taking note.

THAT what partner do. not fix the bad day. just refuse to let the bad day be the whole story.

love, oog
