Summary
Whitaker liked being called "Huckleberry."
It was dimunituve, the result of a quick once-over and easy acceptance.
He'd gladly be the farm boy. The rat catcher. The sad-eyed, probably homeschooled country nobody who's both doing his best and doesn't know any better. Those parts of him were only the half of it, and he hoped that maybe the other half would wither away into nothing if he kept it in the darkness for long enough.
Huckleberry. It was at least better than everything else they used to call him—even his first name, which he remembered with a wince echoing against cold wood and stained glass. Spat out into the dirt, like a slur, around snarled lips like a hex.
Huckleberry. Whitaker. Farm Boy. Hell, he'd even take Myrna calling him Pussycat over-
"Dennis."
Whitaker wasn't sure if hearing Dr. Robby call him by his first name was salvation or some form of punishment from above.
