❛ i might as well be covered in blood or sewage, the way people treat me. ❜ maybe he is blood - covered, the way he radiates death as if he’s the very source of all of it. she’s lucky, he thinks -- the aura is there, exceptionally easy for someone like him to sense, but not nearly to the degree of the fear he induces. he can’t help but be jealous of that. ostracization due to stigma alone ... it’d be a large difference. even those who want to be close to him can’t seem to find the courage. ( i want you to be an exception, his father told him as if he hadn’t damned his bloodline ) ❛ but it’s not their fault completely, and i’m not going to wallow in all my stupid self pity. and you shouldn’t be so angry about people avoiding me either --- it’s how it is. i've gotten used to it. ❜ / @hamamele.
