I keep on waking up thinking that I'm back at home. That in any second, Mom will call me down to breakfast or yell at me that "this is the fifth time I've yelled at you to get up."

...But it's not home. Home's not filled with murderers, evidence of their crimes dripping from their hands- no matter where you go, they might be walking next to you.

There has to be a reason why we're here? It doesn't make sense to just collect us like...we're toys.

The ticking that one hears when they are alone is a clock. That clock is counting down to the end of all worlds, and the despair created in each person from the curses and from events that happen are what power it.

I don't lie.
