22. He was shocked. You can read it in his face.

He was completely, utterly, mindsmashed shocked. He had no fucking idea what to do. He sat there, his posture echoing the fetal position, glancing around helplessly. He was trapped, deer-in-headlights. He couldn't move. He was in *shock.* That's what shock looks like. It's not what horror looks like, it's not what terror looks like, it's not what resolve looks like, it's not what any emotion humans have looks like. It's what shock--complete absence of emotion and thought--looks like.
