Summary: Black's just unnatural.
It was black.
Blood shouldn't be black, not unless it was dried on something, in the dark, or... well, it just shouldn't be black. And those little silver sparkles? Definitely not kosher.
He slid the knife through the skin again, barely noticing the blossoming pain- it was still black. Not just a onetime thing, but... really, truly... starry midnight black.
He cut a little happy face, grinning at how the blood looked against his pale skin- well, that explained why he was looking a little ashy these days, rather than his healthy radiant glow, aheh.
Black.
The cuts closed too fast to get a good look- maybe if he just bled a little more, it would show that he was still red, still human, angel, whatever, deep inside. Black was just unnatural.
He slid the knife down the inside of his wrist- still spurty. And not a hint of red, just that weird...
If he'd ever needed a sign that he couldn't go back, that was it.
He laughed helplessly, hoping Eric wouldn't hear. Eric didn't need to know about the black.
