My character has been committed to an asylum. Send me ☤ for their reaction to yours visiting them.
"Come here to gloat?" Vex crossed his legs on the bed, pulling at the white hospital pajamas he’d been wearing for the past week. In the end, he had turned himself in. He couldn’t trust himself not to do something stupid, completely blindsided by the wave of complete and total despair once he realized that relationships were not going to be happening any time soon if not ever. He’d made some extremely bad decisions directly after, and wandered his way two cities over to sit outside the mental hospital with a crossword pad. He reckoned that he’d break out as soon as his mental faculties had repaired themselves enough for him to plot without having a mental meltdown every hour.
But Old Man having the audacity to show up poured salt on the still-scabbing wounds. There’s thick glass separating them for a reason; Vex pounded on the glass for a solid ten minutes, cussing him out in every way possible, before retreating to the back and sulking. He didn’t look him in the eyes, but aimed his glare at Old Man’s ankles like he could burn his feet if he stared long and hard enough. When visiting hours were over, he pulled the blanket over himself and laid in the bed for hours, trying to sleep.
