APOC NEWS:

From this week, APOC pages will be published a week early on my patreon! I made a poll about this on my twitter a while back & everyone seemed cool with it, so it’s now officially A Thing!

The second half of that flashback at the start of the chapter. I think Nathaniel liked having a younger brother to take under his wing, just so they both don’t have to face their father figure alone anymore.
…I don’t think he knew Rob’s head could light on fire back then, though. xD
