Two demands that ought to alternate are here felt as a single one. The native wants a home and wants it to be provisional, and does not experience these as contradictory until somebody points it out. Moods change without warning and without apparent cause, arriving fully formed and departing the same way, which the household eventually treats as weather. Intuition is abrupt and frequently correct. The native knows something about a person within a minute of meeting them and is unable to say how.
Domestic history tends to be irregular. Addresses accumulate. Early conditions were often unusual in some particular way, a mother who was remarkable, unwell, foreign, absent or simply not built for the role, and the native was reared partly by circumstance. Attachment forms fast and detaches faster; there is a capacity to leave a life entirely and rebuild it within a season, which those left behind find hard to forgive. Sleep is poor. Routine is undertaken with good intentions and abandoned in the fourth week.
Used well, this contact makes an original of the native rather than merely an unsettled person. Work that would bore anyone else keeps them steady, since they need change built into the arrangement rather than smuggled in through catastrophe. Those who arrange a life with genuine room in it stop blowing up the parts that matter. Those who do not will find, at intervals of about seven years, that something perfectly good has been dismantled overnight for reasons that seemed compelling at midnight.
