CoV Drabble: Junk

Apr 03, 2009 10:40

Title: Junk
Fandom: City of Villains
Character: Kuya
Wordcount: 136 (I'm getting better!)
Prompt: from drabblegroup: a laptop, a fire truck, a polished stone
Warning: none

Note: Kuya is my little pain/dark corruptor in CoV. He's a powerful empath, but can't control it, so there's always alot of empathic noise in his head. Inflicting pain is the best way to soothe that, because feeling other people's pain drowns out his own. (And yeah, Kuya is an AU version of Takuya).



To escape the empathic noise in his head, Kuya often got fixated on things. It didn't calm his mind as well as inflicting pain on others, but it helped. He liked to tear stuff up, like old newspapers. And he often picked up junk, found in trash heaps or alleys, to fiddle with in his hands and carry around awhile.

His small room in the base became rather cluttered. Among other things, there were hubcaps, clockwork gears, a cracked monitor snapped off a laptop, broken toys including a wheel-less fire truck, lots of empty bottles and cans.

Kuya's favorite was a polished purple stone he found on the beach while Vic messed with an old car. It felt nice in his hand. He carried it in a jacket pocket, so he had it all the time.
