There isn’t much for him to do in twelve, well, except for the coal mines.

But that doesn’t mean he finds his life to be dull.

He is an observer, and chooses to be so because that is easier for him.

His family doesn’t pressure him into anything, mostly because he does what he is told and causes no strife for anyone.

---

When he was younger, he always spent time with his father, something that he cherished and wished he could have again since he died.

His father used to sit him on his lap, and work on various drawings that he laid out of the same table that they all ate off of.

Pieces of charcoal and coal both littered amongst blank slates of dirty paper, because even in twelve, the clean paper was too expensive for the poor.

He watched as his father drew animals and flowers, sometimes people and shapes on these pieces of paper, noticing the small details and capturing them right in front of Drift’s eyes.

It was that attention to detail that the boy appreciated, a small microcosm of what his father meant to him.

---

He had to take a job in the coal mines himself, something he resented, but only because it reminded him of what he lost.

However, late at night, he spent hours around candlelight dragging pieces of coal along dirty paper.

An image of his father right there in front of him.

And all he would do is smile.
