「 ╳ || जीवन || ♛ || ज्ञान || ╳ 」 —
Delinquency lands quite a number of children in this
awful place every year, Zoe watching with the dulled over eyes
of someone who had seen too much. Young, just shy of twenty
three, they had seen children done way with, had done way with
children more times than they could ever hope to keep count of.
To the point where left unaffected, had watched even as they
dragged off delinquent of an older brother when only the tender
age of fourteen. Gone into career and wondered why, the name
still haunts them daily, his screaming and shouting and begging
to not take him away. He held hands with a girl, a girl with kind
eyes and pretty ginger locks, and she was only thirteen. While
he was a trouble maker, while he confessed to deserving to be
unwound he begged them not to take sweet Petra Ral. She was
the girl not meant to exist, the only one who cared an ounce for
was the boy no one wanted. They dragged Zoe's brother away,
and the name Levi never touched them again, was never said
in that house again. They made a career for themself. They
don't know why. They don't know why at all.
The once child prodigy had been doing so since only
seventeen, since laws of unwinding still applied to them. Genius
in every light, wanted where a brother who everyone pretended
never existed wasn't. And now they are still, for their skilled hand
and the lack of emotion felt for children checked off. Ymir. Christa.
Reiner. Bertholdt. The four most recent. This afternoon they'll
do away with Annie. She turned seventeen in the morning.
Next week's schedule calls for a Yeager, sent for temper
rather than delinquency. Orphaned, result of a father missing
and mother murdered, the foster home got rid of him with haste.
His eyes shine, hold each colour the blessing of the earth has to
offer but are accented by dark bags result of sleepless night. All
children here have those, the lines and wrinkles that match each
doctor. They watch as he kills time, waiting for the day when it's
up. Soon, soon, and he had been scheduled to him. It strikes
when he's making way for bed, strikes as they finish their dinner
same time as him. A conversation with Annie, Annie who is
having her last meal. He's just like Levi.
They will not allow him the same fate.
Gone is the blonde, gone under their knife. She seems
to accept it just fine, doesn't cry out or scream. But in the end
her eyes are scared, all the eyes are always so scared. Taken out.
Blue. They'll be in high demand, as Eren's emeralds shall. They
clean their hands. Open hair. Change clothes. Fairly standard.
Stare in the mirror. When did they become so sick? They're young.
could pass as one of the kids. Normally keeps face hidden behind
surgical mask, even in casual situation, for now they do not. Opt
instead to make way to common room. Stares at the brunette for
what feels like eternity. As children rise to head to dorms, they
seat self beside, say nothing. Tug on his sleeve slightly, silent
urge for him to stay with them. Desperate in the action almost.
They swallow, and somehow find themself fearing the unsaid
for the first time.
