Summary:
Alex recieves a letter from someone who should no longer exist, revealing that their brother lied to them about the new residents of the Sanctum Anatomica. Old fury takes over, and he goes to confront one of the few people he'd ever dared to trust.
A kingly scoff sounded from the cave entrance. "There you are! I've had scouts searching for you all day, you just took off without—"
"Sorry," Cal mumbled. "Something I had to find."
Thrax picked his way across the stalagmites and rocky floor to stand behind him. "Ugh... wh—what on earth are you looking at? Get away from that, it's rotting!"
"I know." Cal didn't turn to look at him. "It's part of what I'd forgotten."
Thrax delicately pressed a handkerchief to the air filter in the nose of his mask and glanced at the rotting heap again. He looked back to Cal in confusion. "Don't tell me you left game from a hunt in here and forgot?"
"No... I didn't kill this..."
"Don't touch it!" Thrax shrieked as he reached out. Cal let him grab his hand and pull him back away from the pile for a few steps. "Are you out of your mind?!"
"I couldn't have," Cal breathed. His voice sounded very far away, his amber gaze fixated on the heap of limbs and viscera decomposing into unrecognizability. "I was never strong enough to kill them. Niador had to do it for me."
"Kill who, Cal? You're being extremely obtuse with all this," Thrax huffed.
"My parents." Thrax felt a stutter in his already weak heart, and he dropped Cal's hand in shock. "Niador's. Veris'. All of them. They wouldn't stop. They had to be... stopped."
"What?"
"On our ship... The Zariman Ten-Zero. I... I remember."
Thrax's hand found Cal's again. "So you've remembered... but I don't think it's healthy for you to linger here inhaling all this rot. Come, we can remember outside of the cave."
Cal turned finally, to look at him instead of past him, with the eyes of a lost, scared child in his grown face. "But..."
Thrax pulled on his hand as he glanced back at the rotting corpses. He sighed. "You cannot raise the dead, Caliburn," he said quietly. "The process of decay will not stop, no matter how fervently you beg."
Cal drew in a shuddering breath, and clamped his eyes down on welling tears.
"Come," Thrax said, tugging again, feeling relieved as Cal finally relented and took a step towards him. "Let's go home. You can pour everything out when you're back safely with me, hmm? And perhaps a bath and clean clothes, that awful smell is following you."
Cal nodded, following his friend and wiping tears from his face. The sunlight stung his eyes after so many hours in the cave, but it was warm on his face like Thrax's hand was warm in his own.
Got them to cooperate a bit so I could take their "before" pictures lol
Cal just sinks deeper into the halloween goth look every time I mess around with colors and such so I think the purple is staying lol Happy Naberus forever!!
More messing around and alternate pictures under cut bc I don't like long posts
Cal's purple goth fit, Alex's usual Tennowear™ and the 1999 clothes Cal brought back for him. It's weird, wearing something that isn't the transference suit but they're touched that he thought to get something specifically for them. :') And I tried to do Cal up in blue and gold for The Old Peace release but uhhh. Idk. Maybe he's too feathery bc I didn't like this at all, he reminded me of a parrot xDD I gotta save up some plat for new hairstyles for them lol
I didn't have the wherewithal to go back thru many quests or cutscenes for pics, probably shoulda done that a wihle ago. Oh well!! Here's from where Alex got to watch Ballas be a sniveling fuckhead and run away with his mom >:(
Ngl he looks a little bit like a Sim in this one alskdjfsf sorry little buddy
Checkers? Is the Captura working? What's that...? Oh he said 'chekchek', we're good. // Orbiter's got some nice sunlight up front <3
