[NT]: "Then answer me - does anyone still remember you? Cut the thoughtful look. The answer is obvious. You have become entirely predictable. What were you searching for here? Honesty? Friendship? A quick buck? Bear this in mind: around here, I dictate what you are and who you are. Now get out."

[THE STRAY]:

I hate you. Don’t look at me like that.

You came in with your bloody case, actin’ like you knew everything, saw everything…

Nah. You saw what you wanted.

And now what? Where’m I meant to go now, eh?

Look at yew… proper sad little mug, mistah.

Should’ve died with your bloody case.

I hate you.

» My maiden endeavor to animate my own artwork. I hold this character most dear to my heart. What a bitter sorrow it is, that her destiny unfolded so grimly. I wish simply to draw her into my arms🦋

I post but seldom, and it feels as though I am casting my words and images into the void.

So grant me, if you will, the belief that even within this void, there yet remains a light.

The dying need something warmer than truth.

A recovered memory from Needles and Pins.

Pain knows this old place his past in butterfly wings shards hold only shade of what once had been himself of one who once stayed with him

“Sometimes ■ think there must’ve been a reason. A purpose. Or so ■ thought.

You see, in this place, it’s all meaningless. As am ■. Or so I thought.

If you breathe too deeply, you won’t feel your lungs fill.

If ■ touch your skin, ■ won’t feel warmth.

■ don’t feel anything.

Neither do you.

Yet ■ see you.

Yet you see ■.

In this moment, this is the reason.

My reason to speak to you.

Your purpose to listen.

Maybe it’s better for you to listen not to ■ words, but to ■ silence.

Yet ■ speak too much.

Yet you hear nothing.”
