rating: teen
word count: 1762
warnings: major character death (but not really bc this is immortal au), semi graphic descriptions of injuries
He ran from his old life after he died the first time -- he was still unsure whether to call it dying. He had, hadn't he? Could that be called dying? He didn't know, and thinking about it too much made him sick -- because how the fuck was he supposed to explain to his family that he wasn't actually dead, and he'd stayed as far away from any meaningful interactions with others since.
With good reason, mind, because how was he supposed to get close to somebody when that would inevitably end up with the'hey, actually, funny thing: gonna live forever' conversation, and Jeremy still had a hard time swallowing it himself, so convincing somebody else was out.
Still, though. He was fucking lonely.
wham bam sure did write this
hope i did the concept justice!
