    ruler in hand, patrick watched as the fly inched      over his desk, tiny thing buzzing forward. then      SMACK, with great accuracy he hits the fly. 

    DEAD ON. it turns and crumbles underneath      and he opens his pencil box to brush it in with      ease. snaps it closed and puts it underneath      his desk for safe keeping. 

    when the teacher calls his name, he thinks      he’s been CAUGHT    but the teachers had      learned long ago to leave hockstetter to his      twisted amusements. she frowned at the      paper in her hands     they were getting      partners and she always frowned like that      when having to partner someone up with      HIM. the devil of a boy. the class held it’s      breath        

    STAN URIS. COME ON DOWN. you’ve      won the prize for the day. his knees hit      the bottom of his desk when his legs      bounce with excitement.

sure, he hears the birds CHIRPING.  the flutter of their wings doesn’t  bother him, he’s at WORK now. it  wasn’t him who had killed the small bird, tiny and brown. he had only  come across it first. had he poked it  bloody with a stick? yes. 

then he hears a noise, a noise that’s  NOT the birds. shark eyes turn, look and spot a flash of blue clothing.  “come on out...already saw you.” he  hums.

@stndpipe​ / idea we talked about on discord.

he feels weird staring at this stranger. he’s just moved into the city and he’s at a bakery to see if their coffee is even remotely decent and there’s this curly haired man in front of him and he just looks so familiar. he hears the other give his name as he orders his coffee and ryan is still staring. STAN ? did he know a stan ?

after ordering his own coffee, ryan moves to stand next to the other who is waiting for his coffee. “ i’m so sorry to bother you, “ he finally says, looking over at stan. “ i just ----  i feel like i know you from somewhere ? “ usually he’s the one who hears that, with his career and all, but this man and his curls and ryan is just looking for an answer.

   there’s blood   that’s the first thing patrick notices. hooked  fingers dip into it and it drip drip drips off his fingers. “oops.”  there’s a teasing in his voice    this was no accident. poor  stan the man. that hit really smarts, huh? lip busted and  rotten fingers smear it along his chin.  they were all so  fragile, huh? broken skin and tears followed. patrick could almost feel a joyful heat rise up in his stomach. he wipes  the boy’s blood on his shirt.

OH! Come on Stan the Man, join in.  zippo closed with a loud CLICK.  no more melting things    he likes to  watch as they bubble up and then  POP. “...okay,”  he opens and closes the lighter,  eyes on the flame. “then what do  you do for fun?”
