Prior's live-in lover of four years, Louis (Adam "Waka" Green '99), is crushed by the news, but he suffers from chronic ambivalence, a weakness of conviction so severe that when discussing their grim future, Prior bemoans, "I wind up comforting you. As Prior's affliction confines him increasingly to be and eventually to a hospital, Louis gets skittish and leaves him, largely to complain to everyone else about his own suffering...
