𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐎𝐄𝐒𝐍'𝐓 𝐔𝐒𝐔𝐀𝐋𝐋𝐘 𝐂𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐍 𝐔𝐏 𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐓 - 𝐊𝐈𝐋𝐋, it's not in his nature to care about the blood that has been shed. seeing VICTORIA covered in the remnants of their victims; it suited her, she looked nicer this way. her face was truly an improvement, if not for the fact that she WASN'T MEANT TO SURVIVE THOSE INJURIES. every time he looks at her mangled face, he's reminded of a failure. does he hold it against her? not particularly, she's changed. a different woman than what she used to be. it's entirely his doing, his influence. she no longer gags at the sight of blood. it's something that is normalized, something that she has no problem getting close to her maw. pulling the corpse away from her vicinity, he holds it at the ankles.
his own hands are BLOODY when he touches her face. smearing more as he goes to wipe the specks from her cheek. there is no saving them. two lost souls, incapable of being redeemed. she wasn't supposed to end up like this, yet here she was. all it took was one faithful night - changing the trajectory of her life forever. getting frustrated when the blood only seemed to double, he brought his sleeve up to her face instead. using that to wipe at the stains on her face. he could fix her makeup later. he still had the white face paint gifted to him by the PALE LITTLE GIRL. but he was focused on cleansing her face to the best of his abilities - which seemed to be lacking at the moment. a solemn expression on his face, it was clear that this was not one of his jokes.
