Give me ghoulcy angst where the Ghoul/Cooper starts a fight with Lucy and it gets so bad that Lucy barely has a reaction at the end.
All the Ghoul/Cooper sees in Lucy is empty eyed resignation and that scares him.
So he starts freaking out trying to get her to have a reaction but it’s literally cold stone silence until Lucy starts moving.
He’s watching helplessly as she gathers her stuff, knowing what this means.
He finally did what he always knew he was going to do.
The Ghoul/Cooper doesn’t act until Lucy has her back to him, heading towards the door. He throws himself at her mercy, arms wrapped around her legs, on his knees like the pathetic dog he knows he is.
The tears come first then the sobs fill the abandoned warehouse.
He begs her, almost wailing not to leave him.
That she’s the first person in this godforsaken hell that has ever understood him.
In the back of his mind, he knew that this was dangerous. He was being too vulnerable. He was showing weakness.
But in the moment, when Lucy turns back to him. The woman crumbling to the floor with him, holding him as he cries into her shoulder.
He couldn’t really seem to give a fuck.
