chapter 2 of "fish rot from the head" by Nilahxapiel
For a moment it doesn’t seem to click, as the creature just blinks in his direction a few times. L is just starting to think it was silly of him to try communicating so soon when the creature’s mouth upturns in such a way that L is oddly endeared to, and then all at once deeply disturbed by.
The creature raises an arm, and copies him.
Pointing, shooing motion, but no questioning look to speak of. With that chilling smile on his face, the creature had made it clear that he wasn’t just repeating the motion in a ‘monkey see, monkey do’ fashion. No, he was turning it around on L with spiteful comprehension.
‘No, you run.’
L finds it fit advice and makes haste.
