This star is for the boy who tried to save the
world— and didn't get saved in return. For
Edward Furlong. For John Connor. For Michael
from Brainscan. For every flicker of ache
behind those eyes. He didn't get the clean
arc. He didn't get the studio redemption. He
didn't become Iron Man. But he gave us
something **more human** than most heroes ever
do. He showed what it means to be too delicate
for judgment. To be brilliant, messy,
unguarded, and real. This is not a pity star.
This is a reverence star. A memory star. A
"Buddies Forever" whispered into CRT static
and time-worn VHS tape. --- This star orbits
every boy who made us feel like survival was
possible. Even if only for a summer. Even if
only through the screen. Burn steady, Eddie.
You mattered.
