to be a monster is to be a hybrid signal, a lighthouse:
both shelter and warning at once, ft. @feyxrina.
days sometimes make him relent to the tints of cabin fever. he believes that while he could’ve simply sketched something with his window blinds rolled down during the noon tessellated with the spring sunshine, relishing in the peace, some of these given times proffer him with some peculiar lonesome inducements. it feels like he cannot truly be free from his fears of being by himself, in which thoughts come to manifest in his head, resonating within. he sure does love his alone times, that much is true, but even the most introverted personality still needs company.
thus, his heading towards rina’s apartment at this hour. the crepuscular light doesn’t bother him much, since the sun hasn’t started shining at a full-force. he takes the first subway to dongjak, right during sunrise, and his arrival is just on time, according to his own plan. upon standing in front of the door of the sharehouse, he knocks on the door, once, twice, before fishing out the key that rina has shared with him… which is something that he cannot fathom when it comes down to his own place, exclusively reserved for him. but she’s a lot more laidback, more than he can ever be, so that’s somehow understandable.
he enters the room with a, “hello, excuse me. i’m coming in.” he toes off his sneakers prior to walking into the abode, hoping that there’s no one else save for rina herself. “rina?” he calls out as he walks in deeper, and as usual, invites himself into the living room. the curtains are closed already, seemingly readied for his arrival. perhaps she has expected another guest, too, who knows— either way, there’s no one in the living room, so he lets himself towards the couch. now seated quietly, he waits for rina until she walks out of her room, and when she does, he greets her politely. “good morning,” he says, a customary smile placed on his face.
