❝ SORRY, WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY that's not how this works? ❞ he's staring, brows raised so far they almost might be in his hair at this point. ❝ i've been dead a while, mate, i feel like i know how it operates. ❞

cherri is hunched over against a brick wall in a dingy alley that is all too familiar to her. a cigarette brightly contrasts ironaically to the breathing machine attached to her , because why not have some fun right? it had been stressful , a recent job didn't pay all too well , but here she was , feeling dizzy and lightheaded to the point where it was more trouble if she chased down the guy and shook him for more money. blood stained under fingernails + some splashed on the white of her hair , -- she would speak up.

' ya some kinda doctor or somethin' ? ' she asks , not really needing any assistance in particular , it's more out of mere curiosity. ' i didn't know they street guys like ya ' on Terra too. "

WEST. CONT.

“i thought you’d quite　appreciate　it,”　　she remarks,　feigning innocence,　　”it seems you’re in dire need of　something elementary.”

henley grips his face with a black, gloved hand,　her hold tight and unyielding,　something　flashing　in her eyes as she does so.

“you believe yourself to be a　GOD,　　don’t you?”　　henley condescends,　her pupils　contracting　as she coldly glares into his eyes,　　”but what…　　or perhaps…　　WHO—　gave you　such　an　idea?” “truly do you think your　revelations　were ever　yours　to discover and yours alone?”

she releases him,　pulling his face aside like she had just　hit　him instead.

“everything you　believe　was placed before you.　long before you were even　born,”　　henley’s glare intensifies,　hiding a sadistic　pleasure　in tearing him to shreds,　　”another　link　in the world’s most　pathetic,　vainglorious　chain.”

“ you know nothing of my work - of my intelligence. how dare you undermine my research! all of my hard work! “

“oh,　i think i know　plenty.”　　henley refutes with ease.

herbert fancies himself an intellect—a scientist.　　she’s all too eager to　break　such a　delusion.　　is he a man or a mouse?　　the answer is quite obvious.　　sniveling,　weak,　a fragile ego…　　he’s a poor man’s imitation of a genius.　　like a child’s drawing,　crudely made and shackled together.

“your…　　research,　i shall call it,　is…　　quaint.”

it’s a kinder way of putting it,　but even so,　henley makes her　cruel intentions　obvious　through her stare and tone combined.

“it’s commendable,　really.　　how much you can　learn　by essentially　smashing　sticks and rocks　together.”

like a lowly caveman.

“it’s how humans discovered　fire,　after all…　　a great tool,”　　she stares at him down her nose,　her figure imposing and cold,　　”but　useless　in the hands of a　fool.”

— 「 RE: @oddsciences .

❝ DO YOU EVER THINK ABOUT where you would be right now, had the world not ENDED? ❞ he does, all the time. it's all that's on matthew's mind, the hint of the past tinging on regret. matthew's tone is vacant, almost as empty as he feels. ❝ i would be at home, with my cat. probably painting something. ❞

or at the hospital. who's really to say. all he knows is the world went to shit and he suddenly stopped getting SICK. he's not been this healthy this long in a while, not since he was a kid.

❝ where would you be? ❞

[bakshiis]

“get the hell out of here !!  shoo away from me.”

"hold on." i say, raising my hand and gesturing towards the other with my index finger. eyes narrow, brows furrowing, blinking as i fully process what what just said to me, the order that had just been given by someone with no real authority over me. "did you just shoo me?" a humorless laugh slips past my lips and i roll my eyes, shaking my head from side to side. "nope, no. very funny, hilarious. but i'm not letting you shoo me away."
