sorry for the wait! sorry for the length, no need to match, i may need to edit for clarification lol
he breathes the sharply under appraisal.
some boyish part him keels, but settles and is forgot.
his warhammer-jaw fastens once more, true to clockware design.
betrayed?
he never outright fought the nuances of the situation, favoring the piling hypocrisy with all the blame he practically shot out of t-shirt cannon in close range to his cold reality.
no more misplaced grievances would be carried, where he nursed it within the crook of his arm, bringing back a roll of newspaper down suburb driveway. he would truly have nothing.
it was profane but profound to him; that's all he needed.
the buttresses of his skull shuddered with familiar dread—the rope is pulled, the hinge and swung and clapper rings the bow bells;
someone deserves to die?
he knew that well enough. his head rings, he stills, his head aches as he clings to emotion. his headache seethes.
her brother?
where did she get such conviction? when his quotidian "vengeful edgy teen" routine had switched in favor for a mellow foxtrot of his golden years, her anger would've been well met.
the colorfulness of the lenten season invited the communion of raindances, fields of poppies and lark, and everything old being made anew, but all these two could indulge in was justice for the state they had found themselves in.
if she didn't have his pensive interest before, she had it now. a watery eye meets her, and he shakily presses towards the woman, hoping this headache would pass quickly today.
with all precaution for strangers thrown to the wind with reckless abandon, of course. for all he knew, she only quivered like a yew bow to strike him down with her arrow.
he wonders about her effervescent lips, and if shirin would melt if touched. if her anger could justify his, if he could breathe easily with purpose again. he tries to speak again, but this time, he tries not to hurt himself. he's found a way.
"help?" he offers.
