❝ RUINS THE . . . AESTHETIC OF IT . ❞ gruff voice * ( though it is breathed out with such care ! he takes heed , if only for this boy . brow is furrowed , fingertips flexed with care , a certain CURIOSITY at the stretch of strange colors / strange fabrics over his knuckles . onyx hangs in his eyes , allows the touches to befall the SUFFOCATING / BURNING / BRIMSTONE AND FIRE of his skin . exhaled , only trained ears knowing the tune of a m u s e m e n t that hangs so achingly unfamiliar in the air . shifts forward so that elbows are resting on his knees , face tilted upwards a mocking prayer ? relinquish your trust in the hands of such a GENTLE being . ❝ careful , i know you just bought more of these , too many and you’ll have t’go back out again . ❞
