HE DIDN’T MEAN TO .he never meant to ( wouldn’t hurt a fly ! ) , but then what’s this at his heels ? not a doll, not a mannequin , but warm flesh falling chill :HE DID THIS .stained cobble , put splatters of red on worn sneakers/ you could find peeks of his socks if you searched hard enough . he sees the gun focused on him . he knows he should care , but instincts win over what he’s learned: HE FEELS NOTHING ,NO FEAR , JUST STICKINESS CLINGING TO HIS SKIN .
“i . . . did , “ blood paints the backs of his teeth , begins to turn to crust ‘ neath his nails . he gnashes enamel , wincing at the tang of metal‘ gainst his tongue : he needs to be clean , wipe himself of this dirt . a lily need not concern itself with disgusting matters . he takes a handful of steps away from the corpse . “ i – i’m sorry,who are you ? “
———A FRUIT SEVERED FROM ITS STEM RARELY SMELLED OF ROT. stunted at its size, the flesh would eventually decay over time. the same often went for people, cliche as it was. a fresh corpse didn’t often smell, despite the poetic beliefs of fiction. the man, knowing this, didn’t bother to check for a pulse ; better to not leave fingerprints nor let his guard down.
❝ you did this? ❞ the questioning continued with gun drawn. it was hard to believe that the young man was capable of such a thing unarmed, to which the natural thought was to approach with the intent of searching him.
❝ it’s not important who i am — all i want to know is… did he hurt you? ❞

elliot found a rabid stray on the side of the road and instead of turn the other way, he gave it a smartphone. idk, i see them being mostly in a mentor relationship. elliot would try to teach fah morals and not to kill people but i imagine they’d be on bad terms if fah didn’t learn to hold back his strength on humans. also hes too aro to give a fuck about a romantic relationship, but if fah was dtf, would he?? say no?? probably not. this has been a mess, and thank you for coming to my ted talk.
———THOUGH HE HARDLY TRIED TO LOOK FOR TROUBLE, OFTEN TIMES IT CAME REGARDLESS. many evenings were spent cleaning up messes as they found their way into his line of sight. he would have never considered himself a vigilante, not when there was such a market for what they did for free. still, as the sounds of anguish grew nearer with each step, the man could not ignore the situation as it unfolded.
behind his helmet, the man turned the corner with gun raised. wordlessly, he managed to get his point across, weapon trained on the the only upright individual. beneath him, a body twice his size laid flat on its face, blood pooling at the vitals.
elliot stared on at the young man, eyes wide behind the visor. something seemed out of place here, a knife still folded neatly into the corpse’s palm, a strange emotion in the young man’s eyes.
