⠀ ⠀⠀useless, the bullet drives right ⠀⠀through him—he was no man. ⠀⠀no human. ⠀ ⠀⠀𝐚 𝐠𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐭, with no true autonomy. ⠀⠀simply a silhouette lingering ⠀⠀within the prison of his agony. ⠀ ⠀⠀he stops the sweetened melody, ⠀⠀but does nothing. ⠀

𝐤𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐲𝐬𝐭. thinking of her again,,, event maybe?

She was safe, she would protect. He stands back, taking in deep breaths. They were going to be okay right?

The room appeared to be that of an old safe house. Yet it was empty . Torn. No longer safe . He hadn't ravaged it of course . It was like that even for his first appearance. &&

Pausing his application, gaze shifting to see the staring. Huffing quietly. "Didn't want to be left out."

"Sorry...for the way I was when you first joined us..." Keeping his breathing in check, looking over at her. "You've been a great addition to the team, Kid..."

"Where's Joseph? The kid?" His paternal instincts would always kick in around Leslie, what an unfortunate situation they've all been trapped in. "We have to look for them..."

Trying to focus on his breathing, tense shoulders relaxing slowly. "Please be real..." A soft mumble, he needs a miracle.

"Kid...?" Looking over at her, is she even real? Is his mind truly that far gone...?

The hall was vast . Narrow and wide all at once. The paintings shifted and a chuckle seemed to pass through them . It was easy to set people on edge . Easy as it was satisfying. Fear to him, often helped make the piece . &&
