The room is smoky, filled with people who, by this time, were good and drunk.  Slumped over the bar, and the tables they sat at, listening to the old ( Read more... )

Death was weary, as if she had been walking for a very long time with no real destination, with no real purpose.  Death would have disliked this ache if not for the fact that it was the only thing she currently truly felt.  If she thought hard enough about it, she could remember a time when she was happy, when she smiled and ( Read more... )

    Stendhal syndrome is when a person becomes physically moved when exposed to beautiful works of art.  Their body shakes, they become dizzy, their heart rate increases and they can even have hallucinations.  To see something so beautiful it really does, literally take your breath away.  Something so powerful that it moves people to tears, to make ( Read more... )

Ooc: This is set in bendy time, whatever time, and just a general little birthday gift to Hiro, who's birthday was on the first of this month!

Death always felt slightly bad about breaking into the homes of the living, of course the guilt never lasted very long - no emotion lasted very long these days. Still, she was very much aware of the ( Read more... )

    He was tired, tired of her nagging, of the way she picked at him - tearing him down, bit by bit.  She hated the way he dressed, he ate, the way that he watched TV.  At night, when he crawled into bed, she hated the way he slept, and the way he snored.  That's how he ended up on the couch in the den, and from then on that's where he slept.  The ( Read more... )

    Standing in front of the video cameras, the bank of microphones, his brown eyes shiny with tears.  "We need her killer brought to justice."  Behind him, a group of mourners, clutching each other, clutching pictures of the dead girl.  She stares out at the crowd of reports, curly hair framing her face still chubby with baby fat, her smile ( Read more... )

In the Desert

In the desert

I saw a creature, naked, bestial,
Who, squatting upon the ground,

Because it is bitter,
And because it is my heart."
