Simon Cortisone - Peaufinage

Simon has hilarious parents. Or deranged ones. It's a fine line. His father is a clown, his mother is a rat. But honestly, it's fine. He grew up with the idea that he had to make others laugh, without really knowing why.

And that taking refuge in an infinite imagination was a way to feel good. Plus, putting himself in the shoes of a jellyfish rather than his own is pretty cool. Because his own skin itches and irritates him. Because of his eczema.

Or because he hasn't quite gotten over Camille, who dumped him in a park, because a park is a neutral place. Or maybe his skin is trying to tell him something. Something that to hear, he needs to stop making jokes. Something that won't be soothed with an ointment.
