Summary
Snake ran to Alaska, where it was always winter and never really Christmas. Dead inside, and drinking to help himself stay that way.
It worked, for a while. The dogs helped. Dogs and snow and liquor and cigarettes, and a growing sense of dread and grief and, worse, overwhelming numbness that crept up on him slow and struck at the same time each year, whether he knew the date or not.
Written as a companion piece to "Not Drowning"
