Are you okay? … We mean you no harm.
nobody: not a soul: charles:
martyrdawn.
THERE IS TREPIDATION IN THE ARCH OF FROWNING TIERS. A discontent that the older man cannot hide etched across him. His back is tight in the tension wound from shoulder blades to wrists, set to snap at the slightest provocation. The aim of his rifle is precise, thumb rested against the hammer in silent promise of what’s to come… because that was the only option now, wasn’t it? To take care of the problem before it grew larger than it was. Yet Arthur does not act just yet, the weight of his words nestled in the silence between his companion and himself.
A single brow arches high as Charles poises his opinion properly.
❛ I was more askin’ about the body. ❜ There’s a sharpness in his tone, blade edge as he speaks with a hint of indigence. He’s not unknown for mercy when the situation called upon it but times now were different. The smallest slip by them would avalanche everything beneath their feet. Pitiful, head bent low in prayer to a God who wasn’t listening to him, Arthur almost feels sorry for knowing what had to be done. Almost. But jeopardy of those he was most loyal to sat at a higher cost. Risking this man spilling all outweighed the debt he took on for killing him by far. ❛ Y’know we can’t let ‘im go. He’s seen too much, the nosy bastard. It’s his own fault ain’t it, Charles? He should’a kept to himself if he ain’t want all this trouble he’s got himself in. ❜
thumb lodges into belt loop, cigarette ash ‘neath his heel cinders to a dull hiss. even as the man in question looks to him for comfort, charles has nothing more to give than a blank stare. he is slight of a man, thin and wispy, the wind could probably carry him ; not a threat in the slightest. charles’ attention wavers from arthur and the unnamed man, settling on his fellow gang member after a withered moment of consideration. the weight of charles’ eyes only grows heavier word by word, narrowed and skeptical, unwilling to follow arthur’s word as he’s seen so many do. the sound of pleading doesn’t go unnoticed --- the man remains on his knees, begging, his eyes have filled with tears, his voice grows weakened.
barely a man at all.
charles releases laden sigh, remaining smoke rises and dissipates in evening air. ❝ there’s no point in killing him, it’s senseless. ❞ there are times where charles may not be able to make sense of his companion, the confines of his mind remain a mystery --- but what they are, what they do ; poses no easy answer or result. careful, he touches arthur’s shoulder briefly, an anchor in the rising waters, beseeching almost. ❝ we don’t have to kill him, arthur. ❞

❛ 𝒅𝒐𝒏’𝒕 𝒊 𝒅𝒐 𝒊𝒕 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒉𝒊𝒎 ? why wont he do it for me, when all i do is for him. ❜ she’s talking herself into a fever. watching john go, sinking feeling it’ll be the last time. and they wont even bring back a body in a box. but sometimes — sometimes she’s angry to see he’s come back. oh, damn this heart ! why isn’t she ever enough.
@lonesight
❝ . . . ❞ sunlight bleeds through her hair, raven becoming a near reddish - hue ‘neath the glare. charles, only a foot away, can make out the earnest cut of her words, sharp as a blade and twice as resilient. most of charles’ weight presses into the hitching post, cigarette ‘tween fingers, cinders seared off end. ❝ hosea’s right, y’know. ❞ a small hint of earlier eavesdropping, charles minds his own usually. his voice is soft, a deep timber within his chest. ❝ you should start thinkin’ of yourself. and jack. ❞

Charles is just 99% done with everybody’s shit

I’ve never belonged anywhere I’m always just in between
WINTER.
a chill right down to the bones. tobogganing. teeth chattering. sleeping all day. sitting by the fireplace. spending time with family. layered clothing. seeing another’s breath. loving the cold. a state of inactivity. cold hands. blistering winds shaking the closed windows. a bookcase full of brand new books and all of the time in the world to read them. cable knit socks. a bitter remark. a log cabin in the middle of nowhere. hating the cold. full length windows to peer out of. pale skin. deep conversations. watching the snow fall. sharp edges. hot cocoa. smelling every candle in the store. a wild snow storm. melancholy. lighting candles around the bathtub. snow globes. expressing yourself but never finding quite the right words. the softest of blankets. liking, but not loving something or someone.
SPRING.
the smell after it rains. being in control of yourself. a soft breeze blowing your hair. lightning when it strikes. cherry blossoms. bright mornings. the first sign of hope. the relief of finding something you lost. paris in the spring. birds chirping. the art of growing. a kiss on the cheek. the clap of thunder. a tornado in the valley. smiling at a stranger. planning. saccharine pinks. making promises. trying something new. hugs when you need them most. a bee sting. sitting on the steps of the met. coming inside drenched from the thunderstorm. picnics on a red checkered blanket in the new sun. that feeling you get when you put on a good dress. a long hike. rushing when you can take your time. going to the gym / training at ungodly hours. excitement for what’s coming. becoming yourself.
SUMMER.
lanterns lit around a campfire. seeing the sunrise like it’s the first time again and again. melting ice cream. the warmth of sun rays upon skin. fireworks. the feeling of never wanting something to end. beach days. the lone blow up floaty left in the pool. drifting with the warm nights breeze and nothing else. music blasting at 3am, loud and proud. palms trees on sunset boulevard. longer days and shorter nights. wanderlust. nights spent staring at the stars. sand castles. road trips. blood orange sunsets. leaving the laundry to hang outside. flowers in bloom. sneaking out of your room late at night. pure contentment. barefoot in the sand. the street lights coming on. the sound of the ocean in a seashell. freshly squeezed lemonade. loose clothing. a cannonball into the pool. the hazy pink before dusk. relaxation.
FALL.
the leaves changing colors. a heavy backpack. the smell of old books. eating until you’re stuffed. deep, dark woods. the silence in loudness. abandoned houses. ripped jeans. crunching leaves beneath feet. feeling like you’ve been somewhere before. sitting at a bay window. having endless amount of work. charcoal drawings. screaming into a pillow as loud as you can. pumpkin patches. creaky floorboards. accepting that some things do have to change. museums. small talk. being ignored. procrastinating. a door slamming shut. going to bed early. baking pies. the fear of walking alone in the dark. feeling completely and terribly lost. a twig snapping. crisp, cool days. foggy mornings at the shoreline. writing a daily entry in a journal. a lonely day.
