"I found him at the bottom of a shipwreck. Everyone else was either buried under debris or dead, Janus. He has no one to tell. And besides, the longer he stays, the more time you get to spend with him!"

"O-Oh... You didn't know... right... You got into a boat accident and I saved you from drowning... Everyone else on the ship was dead by the time I found you..."
You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose. You're on your own. And you know what you know. And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go... — Dr. Seuss
