i can’t wait to know what the ‘lead-up’ quintin talked about in his backstory is, what led to him running across the street and getting hit by the truck.
so far, i’m theorizing that quintin and jackie’s parents are divorced? when quintin talks about his dad it’s always in the present tense like he may still be alive. i wonder if the lead-up could’ve been their parents breaking the news of their divorce to the twins, and quintin took off (as we see he greatly admires his dad and listed him as his hero).
i really like how there are these little tidbits in the story getting revealed as it goes, it feels more natural than having everything revealed at once!
