Summary
It is reflex. Consumption, for a being of this origin, even a fragment, is nature alone. To make another his, to own them, to bend them, to crack them open on the seams, to fester the wound with a thousand squirming limbs and peel it ever wider. He clings to Arthur and pets over his mind, feels it quiver beneath his touch.
“It’s okay,” he breathes again. “You’re not hurting me. Just — let go, John. Take what you need, I’ll give it.”

Summary
In this moment, John could feel the electric sting like ants beneath his skin. It spasmed up his vertebrae and pierced gray matter to twist, contort, and crawl down again, latching to muscle fibers that folded in on themselves and turned to the blink of his eye.
That was where the yellow could not hide. It was the rot in the vitreous humor.

Summary
Arthur? His voice is soft. Are you okay?
No. No, he isn’t.
“Yes. Just–just give me a minute.” His voice sounds rougher than he’d like to admit. He thunks the back of his head against the door and opens his eyes. “It’s been a long day.”
John softly rumbles in agreement before finding Arthur’s hand. With the pad of his thumb, he massages the base of his knuckles with small, circular motions. They stay like that for a few seconds, appreciating each other’s silence and the continued rise and fall of Arthur’s chest.
After escaping the mines in Addison, John and Arthur find refuge in a quiet hotel, where Arthur takes a much-needed bath. John helps him with it.
