𝔻𝕒𝕖-ℍ𝕪𝕦𝕟 𝕄𝕠𝕠𝕟 || Masquerade party outfit || WRATH
A formal shirt and trousers with a cheap mask were going to be the elements of his simple outfit, but it was foolish of the Seer to go to a ball without considering that his parents would know of this and that they would allow him to dress so boringly with all the fun fabrics and costumes at their disposition from the circus. Dae-Hyun wanted to refuse, really, but he couldn’t do much after seeing his Mother so excited about dressing him up.
The shiny fabrics were surprisingly left behind, opting instead for a fixed suit that belonged to his Father in the past. RED was a bold color and he certainly hadn’t intended to drag any attention his way; but he still was not allowed for an opinion when he tried to protest.
As he took a cab to the event, he couldn’t help but wonder about something that had left him restless since last week: nightmares. People screaming, the feeling of something warm against his palms, darkness and an unsettling sensation of dread bottling in his stomach. “Ridiculous”, he had thought and it would have stayed at that if the same dream had not repeated itself two nights ago with extra details: the small of wine, distant laughter and bright colors. It clearly felt like the vibrancy of a party and even after not being the spiritual type before... he prayed. He prayed with almost the same devotion that his Mother used when she prayed for his health. He prayed to be wrong, he prayed for his nightmares to simply be out of stress.
Unfortunately, no gods were listening that night for they too, had decided to throw themselves into endless hedonism.
