The nightmares.
The nightmares had intensified significantly since his return to the hotel. Not that he stayed there permanently, but he'd been staying more frequently due to the increase of sinners seeking redemption, which meant more paperwork. More finances to look over. Maybe, for now, it was a good idea for him to stay around others, in stead of handling his worsened mental state on his own.
He had woken up in a cold sweat that night. His regular nightmares had morphed into something different. Exchanged for something he couldn't shake.
Clothes scattered on the floor. Moans so loud that not even his static could drown it out. He didn't want to be there, he didn't-..
Slowly, now. Exhale. There we go.
He'd given up on attempting to go back to sleep. His hands still shook as he put on his shirt, trembling fingers closing the buttons meticulously. He didn't bother with his waistcoat, nor his coat. He left it at the shirt, his dress pants and his spectator shoes. After all, he wasn't planning on having any company. He just.. Needed out of his room.
So, as silently as a shadow, he moved through the hotel to his radio tower. A space he considered safe. He just needed space. He just needed to calm down.
The stag slowly sat down in his chair, fingers closing around the arm rests. Squeezing. Relaxing. Squeezing... He exhaled slowly, one hand going up to slowly slide down his face, crimson orbs closing tightly.
"Merde..."
