RANDOM ANGST PROMPTS. 🌙 @tigersfire
❝ what you did… it has consequences. ❞
"I know."
The words come in quiet voice, hardly above a whisper, as if speaking the acknowledgement aloud were a dangerous thing itself.
And it was, wasn't it? For it made it real, made the old wound fresh, claws digging in instead of ever allowing it to scab over. It weren't Kyojuro's fault--Kokushibo would have done it on his own, even had he not been told those words, for he had lost so much, thrown so much away, and what did he have to show for it?
Isolation and bloodshed. Nothing more.
"And I will live those consequences each night."
There's no point, in trying to lessen ache. Eyes finally glance over.
"Have you anything else to remind me of?"
