nathan t esser for Kris
A man of few words, Kris is the oldest of the three radio-tower siblings. His protective instincts have always been strong, and extend to other members of the group such as Eesha and Sylvie, whom he regards as his own. Having lost a lot of role-models/parental figures through circumstances both savoury and less so, Kris treats people who are new or older than him with a great deal of suspicion. This means he can sometimes treat Rani and Geraldine somewhat coldly, especially if they are acting in a way that he percieves to be a threat to one of the younger members of the group. Because of this, he has gotten into numerous arguments with Rani over Eesha, from which Alec has had to talk him down. When Charlotte left, he accepted it pretty quickly, as whilst he was grieving the loss of his sister, he was more concerned by the impact it would have on Alec and Sylvie. He hates feeling powerless in situations, and will always opt to deal with the thing he can fix as opposed to the one he can't.
Not my point. After the thing with our mum, Charlie wouldn’t leave her side for a week, she nearly died of dehydration. She kept thinking she was gonna wake up, and that situation wasn’t ambiguous.
Your mum was still around, she read to her every day over the radio.
You’re changing the subject.
