Hi! New anon here (đŚ ). Wonât ask how youâre feeling because weâre all in mourning and in shambles, but what do you think Lottie would be like with a reader whoâs an Antler Queen? Lowkey LottieNat-leaning, but reader was the one who got chosen, and now theyâre in the spring, and Lottie is THE prophet while reader is THE queen.
Thank you!
Her queen
A/N: Hello my dears, I am back! (I think). This isn't the best of my works and my writing has some improvment to do after my hiatus, but I tried to make it make sense.
Also, let's all welcome dearđŚ anon eveyone! I require a round of applause please. Enjoy!
Oh Lottie, the workshipper that you are.
That winter day, when the snow was raging outside and the cold seeped inside the wooden cabin, she consulted with It, asked It what they could do to survive the winter.
When she heard Its voice echo inside her ears, cold as the icy wind and hoarse as a murder of crows and as billions of ghostsâ whispers, she couldn't believe what It was asking, no, demanding of her. You, out of everyone?
That day, she questioned herself whether the Wilderness was real, or a figment of her own imagination. But an order itâs an order, and like the true devotee she is, she compiled.Â
When she came into the room, everyoneâs faces looked harsh, distant, barely holding it together. The dance of light and shadows the fire projected into the room and onto their faces only added more depth to the seriousness of the situation. Had she been good at art history, Lottie could have confidently said that she had been transported into a baroqueâs painting world. Or Victorian gothic, or whatever.
She couldnât see you at first, not behind the bloody pulp of meat that was left in place of her left eye, not with you away from the center of the room, hidden in the dark, protecting yourself from what was happening. From what was about to happen.
You always looked so precious to her.
Natalie was always It's favorite, but you were always hers.
You were too busy drawing imaginary doodles on the floor, trying to do anything to forget this place to see her walking towards you. Her and your friendsâ faces morphed into confusion, anger and jealousy as she arrived at your feet. Only when the fireplaceâs lights were gone from your eyes, did you look up. Standing above you, the light shone around her, creating a halo around her figure. She looked almost holy to you, had her face not been shrouded in darkness.
âIt choseâ. Â
Adorned with an antler crown, you order, help and try your best to hold the group together.
You are a beacon of light, a hope inside the darkness. Someone she can count on, someone she knows will lead all of you to safety.Â
Lottie is utterly obsessed with you, even more so after you became the Antler Queen. She treats you like a god.
She gives you her share of the food, stuff your clothes with fresh medicinal herbs, kisses you goodnight every day, when the sun goes down, right in the middle of camp, in front of everybody. She looks up at you with love in her eyes, as if you were a gift the Wilderness sent her, for how good of a devotee she was.
Speaking of kisses. Charlotte, previous to the crash, had never been too much into public displays of affection. And, more than that, she never confessed anything about her little crush for you. But after everything went to shit, itâs like a cloud obscures her judgment. She had always felt this need to tell you, to come and sit down next to you and whisper in your ear âI like youâ, but never had the courage.
Thatâs until the Wilderness itself made you their queen, and from then on, all her fears and doubts melted away.
On one of those afternoons when the air gets warmer and the light shines longer, she comes to you. You were sitting down on a log, letting time pass while you carved a figure out of wood. Itâs something that always made her smile, how you could still cling to humanity in a place like this. She couldnât. They couldnât.
Since the evening was nearing, everyone was finishing up their tasks, sitting by the fire or losing track of time. You looked up to see Lottieâs gaze fixated down on you. âOh, Lottie. Wha-â you couldnât finish your words, because the moment you stood up, she took your face in her hands and leaned down to kiss you.
The more time passed, the rougher she had become with you. Her teeth pulled at your bottom lip, her tongue exploring your mouth, her breath heavy against your skin. All of that, in front of every one of your friends.Â
You couldnât let yourself be seen by anyone for a while, especially because Lottie had followed you to your tent.Â
She follows you; no matter where you go, you've always got her eyes on you.
Resting inside your tent? Lottie peeks at you.
Hunting with Natalie? She gives you a protection token and prays for you while you are away.
Eating meat by the fire? She watches as your teeth sink into it.
You think itâs a little weird sometimes, but you know she means well.Â
And donât get me started on the rituals.
They are divided into two categories: the ones that are performed in front of everyone, and the ones that only you two share. Despite the height of the experience of a group ritual, it's the private ones that are her favorite.Â
She wakes you in the middle of the night, when everyone is asleep and the air is cool. You follow her into the woods, away from the camp. She tells you that the Wilderness has asked her for a sacrifice tonight, and that that sacrifice is you. She tells you that It wants to hear you scream into the night, wants to feel you writhe above the ground it rules over.Â
So you sit on an old tree stump, big enough to let you sit comfy on it. Lottie slowly descends down your body, until her face is nestled right where you need her the most. Thanks to her height, she has no problems in placing your legs on her shoulders; hell, you are even slightly curved upwards because of it.
She dives right down, taking you between her lips, workships you until her name echoes between the trees. Under the springâs moon and stars only you and her exist.
Only with you she can still be human.
You are her god, and sheâll be your servant until she dies.
When you get back to camp, youâre greeted by a tired Taissa sitting by the fire, with deep eyebags, looking at you as if she could kill you with her gaze.
âYou should really keep your voice downâŚâ.Â
thinking about playfighting / shadowboxing w/ gojo all the time bc he loooooves to piss you off and youâre swinging at him knowing the punch is never gonna land bc of his infinity n reflexes etc but youâve caught him off-guard bc he wasnât paying attention and you just fucking DECK HIMMMM like he is on the grounddd yellinggg holding his jaw (that is maybe starting to bruise đś)

âpride hurts a little. a guy tries to be sweet and let his walls down so his girl can be affectionate with him and this is what i getâŚâ

âi canât believe you hit me!!! im a victim!!!â

Psychotic. Two blue eyes ripped open and stared into you. For the first time since youâd met the strongest, you had actually feared Satoru.
He stood a good distance away from you as blood splattered his pretty face in a disturbing array of red and black. His once neat black uniform was tattered in places from where heâd suffered minor blows, he looked like an animal.
Metaphorically he was one. In every way. From the moment he crawled his way out of that nasty hell hole of a prism real to when he tore cursed spirits apart with his bare heads.
Mangled bodies littered the floor as if they were nothing more than trash. Sorcerers and Cursed spirits alike.
Tears absentmindedly streamed from your eyes, you just couldnât help it. Every fiber of your being ached from fighting enemies and grieving the people you had learned to love over time. Before hearing that sickening crack and watching Satoruâs being emerge out of the small square, you believed this fight was over and had come to terms with your inevitable death. However, something about seeing your lover dropping body after body with the sounds of bones cracking along with flesh separating made you weary.
âWhy are you hiding from me, sweetheart?â The baritone sound of Satoruâs voice crashed into you like a wave. *Click* *Click* *Click*
Something about the floor of the damned subway caused the dress shoes he wore to click louder than normal. Similar to a predator the clicking sound reminds you of an animal dragging their nails against the floors
He reigned in closer with every passing second, your name falling from his stained lips. âBaby what did I do to deserve this treatment? I came back for you..â
You wanted to scream, get up and possibly try to run so you donât look like you just laid down and died. Thoughts raced through your head as your eyes stayed glued to the floor infront of your knees. The click sound got louder, louder, and louder until they simply stopped. No noise filled the train station other than the sound of your beating heart.
The moment you look up you see Satoruâs head poking around the wall you hid behind. Eyes screwed open so wide they must hurt and a bloody smile that stretched from one ear to the other.
âThere you are.â
Hi!
I have a req - Richter fell in love with reader (female) who is a Vampire
Theyâre pretty distance at first but then they start to like eachother đđđŽâđ¨
Also sorry for my bad englishâŚ
AN: I donât think this is exactly what you asked for but I hope you enjoy it. Also, I forgot how much I hate tumblrâs formatting.

You had been a freshly turned vampire when you met Alucard.
A rouge vampire had turned you and abandoned you and it was only because of pure luck and maybe a little bit of fate, had Alucard stumbled upon you and taken you underneath his wing, teaching you and helping you cling onto the remnants of the humanity you had left and since then, you had remained by his side, travelling the continents, he dragged you along to every adventure he got in to for the past two hundred years.
Now you were in France, camping out in the ruins of an old building, or rather you were hiding in the quickly diminishing shaded areas, calculating how long you had left until you were forced to hide in the nearby forest as the sun rose from its forced eclipse.
âWhy not keep the world in darkness forever and destroy it all at once? She must have exhausted her power.â Annette spoke as she stood up, âWe should attack again now, while sheâs weakâ
âSheâs not weak.â Alucard approaches the group, âIâm sorry we didnât get you sooner, who did you lose?â
âHer motherâŚthough she is not exactly deadâ Richter informs them.
âIâm sorry, I know how she feelsâ
Alucard turned to where you were hiding and glanced up at the sun, a silent warning that your time was rapidly running out and you nodded at him, standing up from your crouched position.
âIâll stay nearbyâ You inform him, head motioning towards the woods just beside the ruins they were camping out in, âKeep me updated.â
Alucard nods and watches after you as you speed off to the safety of the darkness and shade.
Richter is also watching after you, his blue eyes trailing after your blurring figure before you completely disappear.
He had been curious about you since you and Alucuard had saved them hours beforehand, something about you was compelling to him and he wasnât sure why. Heâs come across many vampires before but you were the first one who actually saved him and not tried to kill him, plus you were also stunningly beautiful.
Ritcher was brought back to reality after Alucard turned around to face the group and found him still staring after you, a small smirk on his face before he began to tell them of their journey to Egypt.
â â˘â â°âââ˝ŕźâžâââąâ â˘â
You sat up against one of the many trees around you, bored out of your mind as you were unable to do anything whilst the sun was up. Usually you sleep the day away or read but now youâll have to wait until the sun sets before you can set off to Paris with Alucard and Richter if Alucard manages to convince him.
The sound of distant footsteps makes you perk up, theyâre nervous, unsure and so youâre only half surprised when Richter stumbles into the clearing minutes later.
He flushes a bright red when he realises that you were already watching and expecting him, and he clears his throat nervously before he speaks up,
âAre you also going to Paris?â Richter asks.
âI amâ You nod as you stand up, âWherever Alucard goes, I go.â
âSo youâre quite close to him then?â Richter asks, curious about the dynamic between the two vampires.
âAlucard saved me when I was turned. Iâve been by his side for two hundred years.â You reminisce, âIâll follow him to the end of the world if I have to.â
Richter looks shocked at your statement causing you to let out a soft laugh.
âI guess our relationship is like yours and MariaâsâŚsiblings almost but Alucard saved me from a certain death and for that, Iâll always be by his side, loyal to the endâ â â˘â â°âââ˝ŕźâžâââąâ â˘â
The sun had once again set and you were free to leave your temporary prison of the forest and leave with the group towards Paris but not before they stopped by Justeâs cabinâŚwhich was currently up in flames.
Richter gasped and ran ahead, calling out for his grandfather and you ran after him whilst Alucard transformed into a wolf and Annette forged her weapons.
You looked around the area but it was quiet, no sign of vampire life other than the dead ones that were scattered around and you were pulled out of your concentration by Richter wading into the water, calling out his grandfather's name before he turns the body around and realises itâs a dead vampire.
The sound of tinkling brings everybodyâs attention to where Juste stood, alive, contaminating the river.
âYou normally interrupt someone when theyâre taking their steed to water?â Juste asks, unhappy that he was disturbed.
You laugh at the face Richter makes as he realises what was happening before he exits the river as quickly as he can.
âDo you normally piss in the lake you drink from?â You ask, disgust lacing your words.
Juste calls out your and Alucardâs name in recognition before a frown settles over his features, âThis doesnât bode wellâ
âThere was an eclipseâ Juste states while crossing his arms.
âWe knowâ Richter deadpans
âFucking vampires everywhere. Never seen one before, an eclipse. But this one was magic anyway, wasn't it?â Juste turns to Alucard for answers.
âErzsebet Bathory, the Vampire Messiah. She can turn day to night.â Alucard informs him.
âOh. So, what will it take to kill her?â Juste asks the question that everyone wants to know the answer for.
ââââââââââââ
You sat with Alucard and Annette on some tree stumps as Richter and Juste have a private moment.
âAre all Belmonts like this?â Annette asks.
âIrritating? Oh, yes.â
Alucardâs response makes you laugh, as even though you donât have a history with them like Alucard, the few you have met over the years did all seem to share the infamous Belmont trait.
âTo be honest, it's years since I had much to do with them.â Alucard stands from where he sat, desperate to get going, âRichter, we need to go!â
âBut if we can't stop Erzsebet, I'll need a Belmont to finish the job. Or a revolutionary witch, of course.â Alucard continues on with his conversation with Annette.
âWhat happens if we get to Paris, and the mummy doesn't hold any power, and it's just some old corpse that was stolen hundreds of years ago?â Annette asks.
âThen at least it's no use to Erzsebet either.â
You wait for Richter as he finishes saying goodbye to his grandfather before you both follow after Alucard and Annette.
ââââââââââââ
âThe river will take us much of the way from here, we won't be stopping, so if you need provisions, get them now. Keep out of sight. For sure, we're being followed. I'm always being bloody followed.â Alucard instructs them.
âWill you turn the tables on them, surprise them and take them out with your flying sword thing?â Richter eagerly asks, excited to see Alucard in action taking over.
âI'm going to find a boat.â Alucard responds, his tone as flat as ever.
You and Annette stifle your laughter as Alucard stalks off.
Richter invites you to help him hunt, insisting that your vampire traits would make it easier as Annette picks mushrooms.
âSo, how long have you been alive?â Richter asks, his hand going up to nervously scratch at his nape.
âHavenât you heard itâs rude to ask a woman their age?â You tease him with a giggle.
Richterâs cheeks flame red as he quickly splutters to clarify what he means, causing you to laugh again before you reassure him.
âAfter the first hundred years, I lost track but if I were to guess, maybe two-hundred and twentyâŚgive or take a few yearsâ
âThatâsâŚa long timeâ Richter is stunned as they come to a stop in a clearing.
You hum in agreement, âI have lived a long life, traveled to places and seen things that I could have never dreamed of before I was turned.â
âI would love to travel somedayâ
You step closer to Richter, âMaybe Iâll take you travelling, you know, once weâve killed Erzebet and DroltaâŚif you want that isâ
Richterâs head dips closer to yours as your hand comes to a rest on his arm,
âIâd like thatâŚalotâ Richter whispers.
You move to shift to your tiptoes when you hear distant footsteps heading your way, prompting you to step away from him.
He shoots you a confused look that is answered when Annette steps through with a basket filled with mushrooms.
âCaught any rabbits?â Annette asks with a smile, âOr did you get distracted?â
You flash her a grin, âIâll leave you two to it, I donât even need to eat, not really.â
â â˘â â°âââ˝ŕźâžâââąâ â˘â
As Annette was in the spirit world, you got comfortable down into the basement of the building you were temporarily staying in but you werenât alone for long as Richter soon joined you, sitting beside you as close as he possibly could without actually sitting on you.
âHow is she doing?â You ask about Annette.
âNothing has changed, but Alucard is keeping watch over her.â
Richter stutters as he tries to speak again, tripping over his words as a steady blush rises on his cheek.
âCan I kiss you Richter?â You ask, smile on your face as you get to the point.
âOh, yes please.â
You shift up and pull him into a kiss, swallowing his soft gasps as you deepen the kiss. You only separate when Richter has to pull away to breathe.
âYou know, Alucard gave me the encouragement to come down hereâ âNot enough encouragement to initiate the kiss I seeâ You tease, âUnfortunately, Alucard is a terrible bragger when heâs right.â
âLet himâ Richter grins at you before he pulls you back into another kiss.
Does anybody else not imagine themselves when they read âx readerâ fics or is that just me?
Like you imagine your oc instead of yourself
A silly ask and I'm kinda surprised no one has done this yet and I like your writing so I'm sending it to you but basically fem reader and toji on an episode on maury :3
WHOâS YOUR DADDY? â toji fushiguro
pairing: toji fushiguro x fem!reader
a/n: the way this has sat in the drafts for well over a year, loved writing this btw, thanks anon!
itâs no secret that toji has his doubts about whether megumi is his.
but youâre officially over going back and forth with him. especially when he still owes you child support that he refuses to pay until you show him valid proof that megumi is his son.
and what better way to give him that confirmation that he desires than on the messiest show on daytime television, in front of a live studio audience.
âfor those who have joined us after the break, today we are joined by y/n, who claims that her ex boyfriend toji is pretending to act like he isnât the father to their two year old son megumi so he doesnât have to pay child support.â
the camera pans to you and toji sat a few feet away from each other. you can tell that he thinks this whole thing is a joke from the way heâs slouching in the chair and the constant sarcastic replies he gives maury each time heâs asked a simple question.
âmaury how do i know sheâs not tryna hustle me outta my hard earned money, huh?â he asks, seemingly thinking that heâs caught you in a tight spot. âbesides have you seen the kid? his hair is spiky as fuck, nobody in my family has that hair type.â
the laugh that threatens to leave your lips is almost sickening, using hair as reason to not claim his child was absurd.
it was almost as wild as trying to accuse you of being a good-for-nothing money hungry vulture. which was rich coming from him. considering that your job was practically funding his lifestyle, aside from the large dose of cash he received from his 'work tripsâ that cropped up once in a while.
the cash did nothing for you as he spent it as fast as he received it. rather than putting it towards megumiâs trust fund or college fund, he squandered it all on drinking and gambling, especially when it came to the races.
it turns out his charming looks and smiles do not work on the biggest gamble of all time: betting on damn race horses.
but in the rare instance he had some had some heart he contributed towards the bills and groceries. yet that still wasnât enough.
âwhen was the last time you paid for megumiâs diapers or his formula or anything related to the apartment, hm?â
you retort, revelling at how all the fight and bravado he once held was slowly seeping out of him, as if he had all of his blood sucked out of him. the host looks expectantly at toji, awaiting a response.
the audience sets off in a chorus of âboosâ before toji even has a chance to respond to clear his name. he feels ambushed, the humiliation of admitting to be a terrible father on television creeping up on him.
but what did he expect? he always pushed too hard and now heâs paying the price as you unsurprisingly pushed back even harder.
and of course in the sea of 'boos', thereâs a few cheers in the crowd from people who are more interested in getting into his pants instead of the main reason to why you were here in the first place.
âoh and maury if you think iâm lying, iâve got invoices, bank statements and receipts spanning the last three months.â you add âi can tell you for a fact that this man doesnât spend a dime on anythingâhe might as well put on a diaper and sleep in our son's crib.â
"and so what?" toji shrugs, ever so nonchalant. to the degree it pisses you off, he could at least try to act like he cares in front of the camera and the audience.
âi still make it up to you though, donât i?â he replies, a teasing edge to his tone that has implications that you donât want to unpack on national television, which was ironic since your business was already out there anyway.
the look on your face is almost murderous, and luckily maury manages to pick up on before this turns into a bloodbath. he quickly perks up as he holds up the manilla envelope that was going to make or break your day.
âIn here we have the results of the paternity test, come back after the break!â he says clasping his hand together as you head to the commercial break. immediately you head backstage, grabbing megumi from the staff member who seemed smitten with him.
he latched onto you as you doted on him, before he waddled off to play with his firetrucks that you brought with you in your bag. âheâs getting so big.â a familiar voice says and you turn to see him in the doorway.
âmegumi look! daddyâs come back with his tail between his legs because he knows heâs about to be publicly embarrassed on tv!â you say in a mocking voice, pointing out to where toji is standing and he toddles over, smacking his arm as he adorably glowers at his dad.
âbad daddy!â he says and you stop him before he gets out of control and starts to barrel toji with his kicking and slapping. you pull megumi onto your lap trying to calm him down whilst biting back a laugh.
âwe donât hit megumi, unless people deserve it like your daddy.â you tell him softly but you doubt heâs retained any of what you said anyway.
megumi is nestled into your lap, his focus back onto the firetruck that heâs playing with. for his age the kid is incredibly perceptive to the point where it spooks you out.
and if toji feels more like an idiot now, he doesnât say so.
â
âand weâre back! for those who have just joined us, y/n claims that her ex boyfriend is denying that heâs the father of their child to avoid child support payments.â
the clips of the past half hour play back as you sit down, the manilla envelope in your eye level making your heart race slightly. deep down you knew that he was the father so why was the anticipation making you doubt that?
the crowds cheering and whooping comes to a close once maury grabs hold of the manilla envelope, he opens it, dragging out the grand reveal for dramatic purposes as the suspense builds in the room.
âwhen it comes to two year old megumi fushiguro, toji⌠you are the father!â he announces setting off the crowd in a series of cheers. you look over at toji and notice the red flush that covers his neck and ears, a sure tell sign of embarrassment and guilt.
âall i gotta say is that i fucking told you so, hell i didnât even have to say anything you shouldâve known!â you said to him, as he did nothing but take the well deserved lecture from you.
toji felt really fucking stupid, like really stupid but he didnât want to add to your tirade already, he already wanted to melt of pure embarrassment under the hot studio lights. he really underestimated the lengths youâd go to prove him wrong.
âitâs time to start scrimping and saving, old man. food, clothes and diapers aint cheap. Iâm sure your poor race horses will understand right?â you said teasingly, biting back a laugh as you clapped his shoulder.
toji let out an annoyed huff as the sound of your laughter ricocheted in his head, the high from your victory lap still present. he couldnât be more of a fool if he tried. âhaha very funny.â he said drily, despite his head burning, now he owed you and shiu money over his stupid antics.
he knew that as long as the internet and tv were still around, he was never going to live this day down, knowing youâd use this moment to embarrass him and deservedly so.
âiâve been your host, maury! come back tomorrow where we have suguru and satoru. two former best friends and alleged lovers with satoru claiming that suguruâs affair with the kfc worker ruined their relationship!â
âgive me a babyâ satoru talks to you in a normal tone; you canât feel or see any notes of sarcasm, but you smile in disbelief, at which he turns to you, âpleaseâ sincerely looking into your eyes.
âwhatâs wrong with you?â
âkids inherit their intelligence from their mom.â
gojo doesnât let you say a word, putting his finger to your lips, again dazing you with his arguments, âi want my kids to be smart.â
you take his hand away, and he runs his fingers through his hair, ending your dialogue with a wink âand beautiful of course.â
now that i'm an adult, i'll say it.
BOLIN WAS ALWAYS FINER THAN MAKO
Why is this so true?
meme by: @Inknopewetrust
Hear me out, Omnimark told Atom Eve âI've always hated youâ and my mind keeps thinking that the reader of the Omnimark universe rejected it because she knew Eve's feelings for the Mark of that universe, if she had confessed to the reader she would probably have rejected it with âI don't want to get between you and Eveâ or âI don't want to hurt Eve's feelings, she's my friend and I'm sure that if you gave her a chance you won't regret it!â And from there, Omnimark developed hatred towards Eve by ruining his girl's head and preventing them from being together đđ
GOOOODDDDDDD. HERES AN OVERLY EXCITED BLURB
It was like a knee jerk reaction, seeing her of all people invoked a deep-loathing he thought he satiated ages ago, but no. Breaking her leg wasn't enough, she needed to die here as well.
"I've always hated you." It felt so good to admit it out loud, to the rubble, to the crushed asphalt, to whoever was around, he remembered it like it was yesterday.
"I really like you, Mark." A spark of hope. "I really do... but... don't you think you deserve someone who can keep up with you?" Your nervous expression made him melt. Wait. What?
"... keep up with me..?" He echoed, blinking as if that would clear up the confusion. "(Name), I don't understand."
His hand held yours tightly. You squeezed it gently. "I'm no hero, I'm not even affiliated with the GDAâ"
"I don't care about that!" He quickly shot back, you didn't let up. "But you should! Mark, you need someone who... won't be a burden on you, someone strong like you.. like, I dunno... Eve..?"
... Eve? What the hell did Eve have to do with this? You couldn't hold back a small smile as you came closer. "Between you and me, I really think she likes you... so you should go for it!" Your tone was so sweet, so happy to give him away to someone he didn't want.
"(Name), please-"
"I know it's weird, but please, Mark. Give her a chance. She's my friend and doing this with you..." Your hand loosened. He could feel you slipping away. "It doesn't feel right, you know how close we are! Her parents know me and everything!"
Always throwing away your happiness for others, his hand stood there in the air as you parted from him. "Trust me, it's better this way! For you two. And for me!"
'You two'. Him and Eve. Like it was pre-established in your head, like there was no chance to argue or change anything. He wasted no time after you left.
That heartbreak earned him a bloodbath, he was always calm and collected, never put his emotions before his job but he earned it, first was Eve, naturally, he was sure you'd be sad over your 'friend's passing but what kind of friend makes you give up happiness for them. Blinded rage, he didn't care if you claimed that you denied him of your own accord.
He wanted you. You. You. No one else.
Whatever members of whatever pathetic heroes team remained were next, as if first blood wasn't enough he went on a red-hazed rampage, he needed to let out the full extent of his anger before he'd come to see you.
And when he did, he looked like a nightmare, breaking into your home, blood that you knew wasn't his dripping on your floors as he approached you. "I confessed to you." He pants, fists clenched. "I laid my heart out for you." He leaned down to your trembling form, his hand outstretched. "I want your answer, not Eve's, not one else's." The blood soaked your cheek, labelling you an accomplice.
"... Eve.. where..." Oh, poor thing. You were so scared you couldn't get the words out, he shushed you and hugged you close, the metallic stench of blood filled your nostrils. "It's ok, no one will bother us, you can answer me honestly now."
