“Certain Death” | Gundham & Claire
Never had Gundham been so careless as he had been in that particular moment. There he stood, staring in what seemed to be an amalgamation of shock, disbelief, and worry at this woman who he had run into. Literally. He usually watched where he was walking very carefully to avoid this exact scenario, but somehow...
It was like she had come out of almost nowhere. Before he could process it, they had already collided. The surprise of it almost staggered Gundham and the recoil when he had realized what had happened was very noticeable.
The amount of physical contact that was made was not slight. So why wasn’t this woman dying? Dissolving into the air? Ceasing to exist by some supernatural means? Gundham forced composure onto himself.
“Are you... okay?” he asked, the question seeming normal to those around, but an extremely understated inquiry in Gundham’s mind.
