@krillcount : "there’s no secret remorse there. i simply don’t have it in me." tsuki wakes up and chooses violence every single day

her voice is scarcely more than a murmur echoed in the cavernous tunnel , swallowed by the constant drone of water rushing somewhere unseen . hishima scrutinises her outlined form from his spot on the steep concrete apron of the river's channel , attempting to discern IF THE WORDS ARE INTENDED FOR HIM , a six-metre chasm between them that seems indelibly etched into his psyche — as though the measured physical separation can salvage their RAPIDLY DETERIORIATING emotional divide . 

the steel in her voice triggers a prickling discomfort that ascends his backbone , his teeth grinding against the acid drop of a REALITY CHECK that forms a hard edge against her radiant resolve . it's a sentiment he feels had been plucked directly from his past , parroted far in the future by the peculiar properties of the shibuya river .

" a grudge against Them isn't unique to you , " he retorts , words steeped in palpable cynicism . " & your erasure at Their hands won't be unique , either . "

⠀⠀@krillcount : "Please don’t judge me, but I really enjoyed it." heuheueheuheuehueeuehehe

red , once again materialising amidst the vibrato of club music & strobe-infused haze ; red , moving to occupy the vacant seat across from him with an ease that , surely , must have been choreographed in advance ;  RED , IGNITING WITHIN HIM AN INSTANT REGRET for leaving it unclaimed in the first place . he regards her with a bitter fascination , knocking back water-logged whiskey to seize an ice cube between bone-white teeth . 

" you were vocal about as much at the time . " the sudden chill of the ice pricks his mouth as he DEFENSIVELY CRUSHES IT . despite being well-versed in slashing the airy dreams of delicate hopefuls , he knows the challenge the shorthand poses ; knows the significance of allocating it , of her frequent appearances in his mind's chatter over the past few days . even after he reduces her heart to anonymous rubble , the distance will come too late to spare either from harm . THAT , DOUBTLESS , IS THE THING THAT HAS DAMNED THEM BOTH .

⠀⠀@krillcount : ‘I wasn’t a person to you, I was a weapon. and you needed me to work.’

something large & metallic shrieks from within the totemic HEAP of urban errata underfoot , violently protesting dissolution. the noise carries exactly three echoes before being ruthlessly silenced by the night air , CREATION taking on the weight of CREATOR partially , then absolutely , until he's heaped himself upon the detritus as well . PREDATOR’S INCISORS reveal themselves in a scowl , complement of his tapetum lucidum , reflective yellow following a negative slope until it intersects with 29's figure below .

" your conjecture's GARBAGE , " SPITTING the words against her , irate ; INSULTED . 29's got all her normals BRISTLED like an enraged corehog but sho has the glower to equate her , #ff0000 hair licking fire in the mercury light sluicing from a floodlight that had , like all things assembled at her feet , been dragged here in his wake . " you wanna know who's using you ? check the elements of your own set . the only manipulation i do is with NUMBERS . "

⠀⠀@krillcount : 'just so you know, I never do this.'

" SPARE ME THE FAKE MODESTY , " he drawls , crashing into 29's plush parabolic chair , a jagged intrusion of python print & spikes sinking into offwhite fluff along an x³ curve . his black hand sweeps a wide arc , swatting some unseen irritant , a useless fraction . " i don't give a digit about variables that aren't my own . MULTIPLY AS MUCH AS YOU LIKE ; it's not my fault the pathetic ellipsoid hit the bricks at the sight of me . "
