on a sob.

In the abstract shapes of the ground he could see ink drawings, a creature with goat like horns, staring with harsh judgement, not far from it a wolf, gnashing and snarling.

“I always lose the ones I love the most…

His eyes were fixated on the floor, dried and fresh blood smeared about. He could feel himself starting to hyperventilate, trying to control it but at the same time feeling three steps outside of himself, watching and knowingly hopeless to fix the situation.

He’d find his breath only to choke

Silco looked at his hand, then at Viktor’s face and he felt cold sweat cling to him in an instant. His heart was beating so hard it was painful in his chest, his hand shook and he dropped the shimmer.

“I… I can’t do it.” He held the edge of the table, but crouched to his knees in desperation.

"I hope you can find it in you to forgive me..." A few steps away, he fills a syringe.

His eyes were dark and glazed over for the whole walk, he just wished he could pretend the last few months hadn't happened. Laying him down gently on the rusted table, calloused fingers gently brushed the hair from his face.

"I'm sorry that I have to take you back there."

Singed's lab wasn't a pleasant place to visit, an even harder place to break into, but it was his best option. He spoke softly of all the plans they'd made together, let him know about some ideas he hadn't shared yet.

Silco doesn't know when he started screaming, but it didn't stop until there was no one left, until everyone in his sight was either dead, about to be, or long gone. Death rattles acted as background noise while he stepped over them, making his way back to Viktor.

He takes one slow, shaky breath, a red haze clouds his vision in the same way it had on the bridge, he sees the faces enforcers among the nurses, long gone friends as blood paints him and the space around him like a Rothko.

The sudden shrill sound filled his mind, the fast blaring synching with his racing heart, his breathing picks up as he can hear sets and sets of footsteps coming closer.

He takes just one step to the side, making room as the door flies open and half a crowd spills through.

This body was much bigger, and as he stood to inspect it, he pulled his hand away fast as his own face was staring back at him. But it wasn't him, he looked... /warmer/.

He gave the figure a shove, he didn't seem dead at least.

He'd been enjoying a cigar and reviewing an invoice when a body slammed down onto his desk. The movement at first hadn't surprised him, it wasn't uncommon for Jinx to swoop down on him like a bird of prey, but this quickly became very clearly different.

Removing them from their packaging he places one in his belt, another tucked into his shoe, and the third rests in his hand, his grip flexing and shifting as he waits for the next incompetent scrub to open the door.

His words are spat like venom as he moves from the bed to one of the many drawers around the room, breaking the lock with the heel of his palm and taking out 3 scalpels.

With his last resort missing and teetering on being presumed dead, the lack of options made his blood run cold. Standing at the man's bedside his hands squeezed the frame, no more. No more of this.

weeks turned into months and seemingly none could.

After a long morning of having to back and forth with at least a dozen nurses, something snaps when he hears one muttering about a patient like they were no more than dirt under their feet.

" We're sorry, but there's nothing we can do. "

How many times has he heard that now? 15? 20? He was starting to seethe. It was tolerable at first, he could almost rope himself into believing that just maybe the next one would be able to help @arcanevik.bsky.social with his sickness, but +
