Chapter Text

Three men stand on stage, two are the same height and have the same looks except the two look-alikes have completely different expressions on their face one has a shit eating grin and the other has unending sadness in his eyes, another difference is the eye color the one with the smug smile has blue eyes but the one with sad eyes are green, we're not related says they look a like with a shit eating grin as he points at the sad look a like, in the middle between the look A likes is a midget who looks like a mixture between a man and a rat, you already heard my story says the smug look like what he says is true for the man who said it is none other than the rabbit in the hat his story was already told he's only here for moral support, so I think I'll give the stage to rat boy genius over here

A story about a copycat hatter
Let's get one thing straight... I did not! and I can't stress this enough. did not!!! Rape The dearly departed Alice darling

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment since the day of his birth the copycat had been ignored his parents only noticing him enough to keep them fed and Drive him to school, The world never noticed me why should they I'm hideous and the world doesn't like to look at hideous things, The copycat excels in his classes more specifically in medical classes he's an absolute whiz with anything to do with grey matter, The world didn't notice me but they did notice the things I did

The copycat in his 20s working at a big company working on new medical techniques to help the mind. though his work is extraordinary and despite when they tell him the company never acknowledges him in the discoveries they say they've made it as a collective, I was happy to be paid they noticed things I did that was good enough for me. I gotten so used to it I immediately noticed when they notice what I did but didn't acknowledge it was me who did it, A woman with medium blonde hair and average looks getting a promotion for a medical breakthrough she wasn't responsible for the man who was, the copycat standing in the background stewing in his own anger, if I knew what I did next would cause all this I would've just let it slide like I said I didn't rape her but I know who did

The copycat tells every last detail to the blonde woman's boyfriend. though he does exaggerates some facts saying that he told the company when in actuality the boyfriend the is first person he is telling this to after the tale is told the boyfriend gets a look of anger on his face and storms out of the restaurant they were meeting at, I should've known something was up when he stormed off in such a rush didn't even pay his part of the bill, The copycat watching the news when suddenly a special report comes on the blonde coworker is dead apparently she committed suicide and the note says some nasty stuff about the copycat The note isn't in her handwriting, A child would know what happened to her wasn't a suicide but like I said the world didn't know who I was so they didn't know I wasn't like I was written in that note I wasn't attracted to her and I wasn't stalking her besides even if I was she was already taken and I'm not a homewrecker, and suddenly without warning everyone noticed him just at the moment he didn't want to be noticed on the street people call him a monster. Eventually he's taking to court told his guilty and thrown into a cell didn't even get to say a word, The thing is there was residue on the body it wasn't mine it was a boyfriends but he's rich and he paid all those forensic scientist to say it was mine no matter how much do you think you can't be bribed you just haven't been given enough money

Despite what you may be thinking nothing happened to me in prison in fact it was like I was back in my old life again the only notice me enough to feed me and leave me to the showers other than that they just left me to rot someone did notice me someone really special to me. regular folks may not want to look at me but ugly folks help their own, The copycat's cellmate is a bean pole of a man with the complexion of a corpse, The corpse like man and the copycat quickly become friends and soon after so much more, I did my time and got out with my man I was expecting to live the rest of my life with the man I loved using the money from my days as brain surgeon to live a good quiet life maybe adopt a dog or something but the world has ways of fucking with your plans and I may have served my time but some people think I didn't get the justice I deserved

The copycat sitting in his house waiting for his husband to get home from buying groceries when suddenly the front door is busted open by a burly man in a tank top wearing steel boots. The man grabs The copycat by his neck and start screaming at him about how he's the scum of the earth eventually the man pins the copycat to the coffee table tears off the copycats pajama pants was one meaty hand and hold them down with the other, we really should've set up a security system I must've gotten used to not being noticed in prison I thought people wouldn't even notice I got out, The hands of switched and the man begins to pull down his pants cut The copycat lies on his Living room floor shaking a look of fear spread across his face the shadow of his husband looms above him pacing back-and-forth only snippets of words can be heard things about it was like this when I came here and he's completely catatonic

Apparently this guy was a guard who had a bit of a pension of raping the inmates wherever he worked at, The rabbit in the hat can only look on as the man who raped the copycat rapes the rabbits cellmate, eventually he was banned from ever working as a guard ever again that didn't stop him from taking out his own brand of justice he just did it on escaped or released inmates. Luckily we took him to court and got him in prison so he won't be hurting anyone he's locked up real tight no human interaction other than getting food

A story about the crybaby hatter
I wasn't always a hatter I used to be naïve what happened to me only happened to me once, instead of a spotlight movie fragment a little girl in a White dress playing in her family's garden with a pet rabbit. when suddenly the rabbit jumped into the bushes The girl goes after the rabbit and behind the bushes there was a fully set tea table The girl looks around for her rabbit she doesn't find any rabbits but she does find a blue dress on the table she gets a look of disappointment on her face , I didn't dislike wearing dresses it's just I want to be seen as a boy when I wore them but Uncle Tarrant always made me be a girl when we played together it was annoying but he never actually tried to do anything inappropriate before

When the girl takes off her white dress a barely noticeable click is heard like from a camera The girl doesn't notice. when the blue dresses on the girls Uncle and another man emerge from the bushes uncle is dressed like a meth addicted clown in a shitty sewn together top hat. And the other Man just looks like a crack addict, uncle always played the hatter, The little girl takes a sip of tea and suddenly everything around it starts changing the crack addicted looking man's Face becomes more rabbit like in the Uncle begins to transform into a foul beast with teeth that look ready to tear into her Flash and claws that begin to wrap around her arm like a cage, He made for a much better Jabberwock and he did a hatter, no matter how much she tries the little girl can't move nor can she make a single peep from her throat paralyzed and voiceless the little girl can only look on in horror as The claws of the beast that used to be her Uncle tear the dress she's wearing to tatters. The beast's tongue licks upon her prepubescent skin first across her chest and then despair inducing me slowly down as much as she wants to push and shove and punch this beast arms aren't obeying her they just rest useless and numb. The tongue stops at her navel and the head lifts up for a few God given minutes there was nothing just numb arms and cold breeze of spring on her skin, The moment is abruptly ended with a small pressure bumps against a prepubescent hole it was a painful thrust the whole length is plunged into her tight unwilling body the piece is rough and fast she seen not as a dainty prize to be taken slowly but as a cheap whore to be used and abused, I can't begin to describe the pain I felt not just a physical pain but the emotional pain, The girl in her blue dress bawling her eyes out. red staining skirts of her dress. the effects of the tea long worn off Screaming and bawling and yelling about The man no the monster that took her sweet virginity her parents console her take her to a doctor to check for any residue there is none the only thing That lines her thighs and skirts is blood, they believed I was raped there was evidence enough but they didn't believe it was him who did it. They thought it was the other guy the crack addict looking guy,Flashback the girls arms are held down though that is not necessary seeing it as they are numb anduseless A precaution just in case the tea wears off prematurely it's crazy what people do for drugs... anyways My Uncle said that the crack addict guy blackmailed him into letting him fuck me. my uncle never saw any justice brought up on him he still alive to this day he never tried doing it to me again he didn't want to try his luck for a second go with me

The girl in adulthood except the girl is no longer a girl the girl is a very familiar looking man this man is a crybaby crybaby stands in front of a mirror looking at himself suddenly things get weird his reflection begins to smile when before it's frowned and it begins to speak to him telling him whole things about how he'll always be that little girl who was taking on that tea table and how he's life was worthless and no one will miss him if he died, I was always a very imaginative kid imaginations tend to twist in the face of trauma, The negative self talk spewed by he's reflection keeps getting worse and worse every day. Every day he'd go to the mirror and just take the negative talk eventually it becomes too much he opens the cabinet in the kitchen takes out some rat poison grind up some anti-puking medication and pours both into a cup of tea he downed it, my husband found me just in time he took me to the hospital and when woke up I was sent off to a mental hospital for my own well-being it was nice for the most part like I said what happened to me only happened once it could've happened a second time if I didn't know the signs but believe me years of not being able to think of anything else but your own defilement and only thinking thoughts of a man who did it really gives you time to puzzle out where the signs are, One of the doctors he's assigned to is very friendly to him a bit too friendly he notices this but brushes it off. When the doctor starts getting Hanzi and he shut that shit down he talks to one of the nurses and the doctors fired the next day, The rest of my stay there was good I got the help I needed and I move press my drama when I got back into society I went back to my husband and we had a night with passionate lovemaking I was finally able to let him in. my first time as a man was loving, slow and oh so nice, The crybaby squeals and squeaks. moans and pants in bed, love in his eyes and words of passion on his lips those words eventually his words of adoration and love a cut off by a kiss and then the world becomes a haze of love fueled release as his mind is filled with pleasant insanity broken but satisfied, it was amazing a Pleasant sigh slips from the crybabies lips and he just stands there reminiscing about his first time as a man suddenly the rabbit in the hat pokes them on the shoulder and whispers in his ear

Oh wait I should probably tell you guys how I met these two points of the other two men. Well first of all his eyes turn to his blue eyed duplicate we met in a mental institution and we bonded over a lot of shared interests and shared traumas...well similar traumas, The duplicate chat about many things hatters and hayfield hares, jabber walks and jokers The conversation turns from similar things to one shared thing a doctor, The doctor i speaking of I wasn't the first he tried to take I was just his first failure he had a lot of successes,

A little story about the maddest hatter(as told by the rabbit in the hat
Instead of a spotlight movie fragment The blue eyed hatter speaks of another hatter A thin gaunt hatter brought in for violent schizophrenia and never brought out the blue eyed hatter speaks of hearing screams coming from the locker room where the maddest of hatters resides.screams and moans not the moans of the hatter no the moans of a doll maker, The man that came out of that room wasn't a hatter anymore he was a doll he was barely even human conscious enough to to understand what was an happening to him but not conscious enough to say no or resist he didn't remember who he was he only knew what he was now there was no saving him the man he was was was dead,The maddest hatter sits in the rec room barely conscious staring blankly into a wall

Back to the crybaby
You know he points to his blue-eyed duplicate he has kids yeah three of them one he sort of legally adopted the crybaby waves his hand side to side, A teenage girl of 16 sits at a dinner table with the rabbit in the web it's husband eating reheated meatloaf the girl is happy, The other two he used me as a surrogate for, A pair of teen twins of 13 one taller than the other taller one being the boy, the shorter one being a girl the girl wears Gothic clothing but has a big beaming smile on her face and the boy wears bright vibrant clothing but is frowning there standing for family photo next to their semi legally adopted sibling the sibling is 29 the family is happy

The pomegranates "boyfriend" storms into the usual screwing place anger and lust mingling in his gaze, I don't know what was up with him all that does matter is that he was pissed and that he wanted to screw but I wasn't in the greenhouse to screw I was in there to tend to the plants, The pomegranate tries to shoot off her boyfriend he doesn't listen eventually there's an argument, the argument turns physical and the pomegranate ends up on the floor kicking her boyfriend in the genitalium though he isaffected he is not falter and begins to remove her undergarments, it was awful he never was a good lay but he was especially bad dry, when it's all said and done the boyfriend gets up witches into his pants and pulls out a lighter and throws it into the garden and just walks away, needless to say we broke up after that
The pomegranate wonders aimlessly through life doing what she usually does protesting and calling out all those all those who harm her beloved plants, the advocacy turns violent and eventually she's is arrested for the attempted assassination of the owner of a logging company, The trial is it open and shut case she's gonna do an insane asylum and now she's here, my treatment he has been pretty good I found some in new meaning in life, The pomegranate holds a crying woman in her arms as she blabbers about clowns and how she should've never trusted him

Violet"
The doctor start swimming thing with the tapes again and pulls out one showing it to the audience written in I cursive handwriting and the color yellow is the word
The hares
The men who appear on the video are an odd trio for sure, short one on the far right has an average looking face with a very beaklike nose his hair is a light red and he has a look of boredom on his face he says in an equally bored tone I'm going by European in a very obviously forced accent, I'm going by Jack rabbit, The man who said that is a sight for sore eyes a bandage wrapped around The right side of his head and his lips are completely gone, I will be taking the name Jackalope, the thing that can only be vaguely stated as a man is tall and skinny as a twig, his face obscured by greasy black hair what can be seen if his face is skeletal
I believe I'll be going first European says

A much older European teaching college courses, his students listening dutifully Cut the European walking down a hall audible but slightly muffled screams coming from each door he takes a glance and one in sees person violently scratching themselves screaming about tiny legs, I won't say what I did was entirely ethical but technically I was still doing my job you see I was a college professor/fear specialist at this very asylum, The European standing in front of an audience of his peers they tell him he's fired, he packs up gets an idea in his head, and you know how that turned out, do Europeans sitting in a cell ice pack on one eye that was recently punched every now and then he looks around frantically his one good eye has fear clouding its gaze, I got attacked by a bat

The first one who got fired was named Scott, the duplicate looks up to the far away is he's a man covered in Band-Aids and the furious scowl on his face, he was fired because he complained about my father videotaping him making out with his girlfriend without his permission. The second one who got fired was named Mike, next to Scott is a Man in a gray shirt and black hair and dark eyes, he was fired because of his anger issues. The third one who got fired was named Jeremy, the man standing next to Mike is a cowardly man brown hair and a hat that covers his eyes he doesn't look like he wants to be here, he was fired because well I think my father raped him and he was fired so if he told people would just think he was giving a false accusation to my father out of anger for being fired. The final man was fired with named Fritz, The man next to Jeremy is a ginger with freckles and glasses The man is fat, Which were fired because he ate a lot on the job. Only three of the men violate the duplicate, Jeremy when it's his turn rans away in a panic

I rehired the men who violated me as my father always said( he put it put on A deep voice) if you know why someone did something and it was out of anger you should always forgive them. I'm not really messed up about my violation I'm only here for Jeremy because he thinks I should go first before he does you see he told me why he got fired but I think he was excluding some parts, Jeremy is shown in the duplicates father's office with his hands down his boss his pants.
After this I'm gonna go home and tell Jeremy that this place is pretty good. anyways if you have any kids come to my place we're 100% Child murder free The duplicate holds a thumb up and smiles best salesman smile

Some of you have probably seen me on fashion magazines, the Redhead Says Pride on his face, but I also started movies, he continues. The Fashionista and you were remotely log full movie, he's the only one doing a decent job at his lines. A couple seconds of Justin's silence he coughs into his hand and admits sheepishly, they weren't very good movies

as time goes on the Fashionista ages just like us all eventually no magazine we'll take him as a model, but he has a back-up to make sure he can still make some money to pay the bills, and so using the tricks of the trade he's picked up from his years of modeling he becomes a Taylor. I tailored suits and other sorts of things for a lot of famous people, the redhead said as he looked to the duplicate in the audience a look of Pride on his face. Business is good until one day, a customer the fashionista has never seen before comes lumbering through the door. Have any of you heard of a thing called a neckbeard, cuz this guy, the redhead pauses for a second before shaking its head and giving an exhausted exhale, is exactly what you're thinking of. The man that walks into the shop is poorly dressed, his red hair is greasy and every time he speaks a wave of nauseous stink emits from his mouth, it takes all of the fashionistas will not to vomit on the spot, as the Fashionista begins measuring the man the two of them speak.

The character he wants you to cause play was a character I played in this really shity movie adaptation of his really good series, I think some of the people you know it, gray ghost, the audience gives affirmative nods

the fashionista that influenced his client let her have the outfit done in two days but he will have to talk to him about what Fabrics to use, the client suggest the talk over some drinks, and the fashionista agreed reluctantly. I should have listened to my gut and said no. The conversation starts out good all the questions in fashionista poses are answered as accurately as the man can, but halfway through the Third glass of alcohol the fashionista starts to become dizzy, he gradually gives the address of his house as he was led out of the ball by his client. I fell asleep in the car when I woke up I was in the basement. the fashionista is Chained to a wall, the chains only give enough room to get to the mini fridge in bed in the place he's locked in, inside the fridge awesome bottles of water, and Tupperware full of leftovers, mostly Ramen, on top of the fridge in the microwave which is plugged into a wall. I looked around and didn't seem to have any exits except for a door. Sometime later the door opens to reveal the fashionistas client numbers into room stinking more than you did yesterday, the Fashionista backs away but the chain attached to his foot is grabbed and she's dragged over to the client. He tasted worse than he smelled. The client forcefully kisses the fashionista, the taste of his mouth causes him to vomit, which elicits a smack from the client sending the fashionista tumbling onto the bed, and before he knows it the client is pounding into him, eventually the pain causes him to pass out, and when he wakes up does a camera, and on the bed is a script

apparently he made some sort of movie script. a quick glance at the script will be yours that it's very misspelled and very cringy, but the fashionista only has a couple seconds to take in the cringe before the basement door opens and the client comes into the room holding a script of his own. He was the main character and I was love interest, after some back-and-forth cringy dialogue The Script calls for sex scene, and like before the pounding causes the fashionista to fall unconscious, but this time when he wakes up the client is in bed with him fondling his hair and is breathing noxious stink into his face, the fashionista pukes again but this time the client fix some of the puke that Stained on his chin. Eventually left the room and I heated up some Ramen, the next day there was a new script and the whole thing started over again.

The days after that are all the same until what the fashionista believes is the fourth day, there is no script. The next two days there still was no script, and on the third day I ran out of leftovers, after some more days of no hide nor hair of his Captor, the fashionista decides to do something grabbing the microwave people places and brings it down onto his Shackled foot, later the Fashionista lamps to the basement door which Creeks open, leaning over the railing of the stairs he goes up and what he finds is a dirty room, the walls plastered and photos of celebrities mostly child celebrities, in the middle of the room lies his Captor, dead. What did they say he died of a heart attack some days before. The fashionista sits in the hospital room talking to some policeman, his foot is in the cast.

eventually he went to an apartment complex.

The girl wanders the halls of the apartment complex meeting some people before she gets to the man she's looking for, now that her curiosity is stated all she needs now to do is go back home, but the problem is she's completely turned around and she doesn't know where home is

I asked the man if he had a phone since I knew a House's phone number but he says the Wi-Fi of the complex has been weird lately, so I go ask around for anyone with a wall phone

her asking leads her to someone who doesn't look very nice, the man who stands at the open door Towers above her more than any other adult has ever done, despite the man's rather Goofy looking vest, the girl knows that this man is dangerous, before she can say a word the man grabs her by the wrist and pulls her into his apartment, the man uses his teeth to tear into the girls dress, soon the girl is laying outside of the man's apartment, she cries so much she fears she'll drown in her own sadness

I cried until I couldn't cry anymore and I picked myself up and kept going

soon she gets directions from a chubby smiling man in purple, she follows the directions and she finds herself in an apartment that smells like a mixture between tea and something that makes her kind of dizzy, two of the three men that live on the apartment are surprised to see her while the Third is completely unconscious on a bean bag,

luckily they had a wall phone

red heart is bawling into the receiver of the phone to her mother, as beside her two of the men that live in the apartment, a brunette and a blonde. Rub her back sympathetically. The blonde turns out to be a distant relative

I felt something was up with him the moment I saw him looking at me, white heart says I meant sadness at having to retail the events leading up to her defilement, and before anyone asks this happened before red hearts incident

the eye patch man grabs white heart on her way from the bathroom pushing it against the wall, before she can scream the man's hand is over her mouth and his other hand is slipping up her skirt, cut wet hot stumbles into the main party room a white and red staining her legs, her makeup is speared from crying, the worried voices come in a cacophony that white heart can barely hear over the echoing of all the lewd things the eye patch man whispered into her ear as he took her

police officers ask her about who did this to her, some days later she watches the news and sees to her relief that they caught the guy but something seems off, the mugshot shows that his good eye has been bandaged up

turns out one of my cousins from her side of the family, she points to Red Heart, took it upon himself to hunt the guy who did this to me down and

flashback the eye patch guy smoking a cigarette behind a McDonald's, suddenly in front of him stands a corpse pale redhead, his face smeared and clownish makeup his eyes shining green with rage, before the eye patch man can say a word the redhead in front of him begins ranting in a thick Irish accent about defilements and cousins and before the eye patch man knows it the redheads top hat is off his head and he's reaching in it like some sort of Macabre magician, and with a quick hand he pulls out a sewing needle and just as quickly he's plunging it into the eye patch man's good eye

Trigger warning for FtM pregnancy, raped, pregnancy scare, religious violence

Dear I'm not sure about this, the angel is a slightly pudgy man has snow white hair and clothes that look like they came straight out of a Victorian painting
Come on Angel you have to tell yours first so mine will make sense, The snake is the complete opposite of the angel well the angel is plum and short the snake is thin and tall, His hair is as red as an apple and his eyes are covered by sunglasses. He looks like he's in a biker gang with a black leather jacket and chain necklace.
he doesn't look like someone The angel would want to hang out with like at all but despite all that they're on the stage together and a keen onlooker would catch the loving glances the angel does to the serpent.
OK dear but only for you

The Angel's parts of the store
So I think the trouble began when I was... I think you realized I'm not the most conventional man from the way I Look, and the angel is right he has very feminine facial features. And the little miracle we brought with us, the miracle speaks of appears to be a child no older than four months, The child is almost supernaturally cute With his chubby cheeks and dirty blond hair.
Instead of a spotlight a movie; fragment a a tall out of frame woman and a girl with the same Snow White as the angel walking to the main area of a church, they are greeted by an aging priest who leads them to the seats they sit down and the girl looks down at her Lily white dress that Resembles less church clothes and more angelic robes and frowns, , cut we see the same girl in the first person view looking at her self in the mirror she's in a tartan dress shirt and brown pants she looks like a kid who just got exactly what they wanted for Christmas
My mother was really excepting of me wanting to be a boy, we see the outer frame woman and the angel a titan bowtie, the angel tries it on and give the woman a tight hug. She even picked out nice masculine clothes for me

The angel in his teenage years looks down on the city from the top of building he looks pensive beside him suddenly, the Snake appears looks at him and then make small talk The snake asks about something in the angel looks embarrassed the scene cuts to a couple minutes earlier and two Black people one male one female, the female heavily pregnant looking at the angel. The angel hand them a bag of food and Abscond from the building cutbacks with the angel and the snake the angel looks down The glance is followed by the snake they both see the black couple running away from the building
We met under really weird circumstances you see I was working at the churches inside garden and two homeless people broke in looking for food I gave them a bag of food and a gun for protection , And that's how we met, we became friends
And that friendship soon turns into something more than That, neither of them want to say what it is but both of them know exactly how they feel for each other.

Two years later they were in the Angels personal library both thoroughly sloshed, for the first time we get to see the snakes eyes they were bright light bulb yellow and have slits like his namesakes he looks at angel with clear affection in his eyes and the angel looks the same at him.
Suddenly and without warning the angel smashes There lips together and rubs the snake's chest, The snake wraps his arm around the angels back and they both fall backwards onto a couch. The scene cuts to morning and the angel opens his eyes and looks beside him to see the snake lying in bed with him, the angel starts up and went to the bathroom grabbing a box of pregnancy tests after he takes a pregnancy test he looks down in relief and goes back to the bedroom looking nervous.
We talked about it after that we both decided to have a relationship in secret, you see my side (the angel points to the snake) and his side don't really like each other. The relationship was working smoothly but.. um

The angel seems pensive for a moment, but the snake put a hand on his shoulder and smiles at him, the angel shakes his head and looks back to the audience resolute
Well you see his boss(points to the snake) had a kid and his boss is like really influential in like crime and stuff so the kid had to be raised by someone else and we had to look after it. But there was a bit of a mixup and we got the wrong kid but , But it ended up OK the kids denounced his dad and he's living A pretty normal life but because of that both of our sides knew about our relationship, and they didn't like it

The angel is walking to a grocery store when he is grabbed from behind by greasy hands. The one who grabbed him is a disheveled looking man with dark almost black eyes and what seems to be a piss yellow toupee, But the man is not alone Many similar looking people stand behind him the angel looks frightened and attempts to fight out of the Man's grasp he's pushed to the floor and his pants are removed, There is indescribable pain and shame, then he's left to wallow in his suffering
If you were wondering our little miracle isn't the product of that monster. Scene showing moments before he left the house the angel swallows a pill. I was on birth control I had been for a couple weeks. Anyways after they left me I managed to grab my phone from my pocket and call c-I mean the snake

Anyways a couple months after that we decided to have a kid and then another couple months and, The angel holds up the baby, we had our little miracle. We decided to name him warlock

The snakes part of the story

I had a pretty good childhood despite my, The snake pulls down his glasses to reveal his slid eyes, quirk. Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment a much younger snake plays in the garden rolling through the grass and wandering through the flowers. Really it's when I got a bit older the problem really started. The demon and his preteen years surrounded by suspicious looking people around the same age as him look down at the table where what seems to be a map is shown on one side is an ex and leading all the way to a warehouse is a line
You see I got into a little bit of crime, The snake pulls his glasses back up, and by a little I mean a whole lot. The snake is shown carrying a bag of which seems to be money out of a building he starts running to a van he put the money and then jumps inside himself

The same scene when the angel and the snake first meet is shown but from the snakes prospective. first he breaks into the church garden unbeknownst to him the homeless black couple come in with him, he goes to the nearest tree and picks all the fruit, then puts the fruit into a burlap sack. he continues doing this to 4 more trees he hear something in a panic he goes up to the roof and hides. After a couple minutes the angel comes up to the roof as well he stands near the end of the roof and looks down the snake sneaks up behind him

Anyways I should probably get into what happened to me. The snake is shown walking home from the grocery store way down by two heavy bags. So two weeks after the angels thing happened I was going to get you know supplies, Like chocolate, blankets, and movies do you know to try and calm down.
The snake is grabbed by the throat by a muscular hand and pulled into a church. The man grabbed him is in Presley ropes and has lilac purple eyes and gray brown hair, The snake is then grabbed by similarly burly man and dragged to an office his push down onto a table and strap to it by cuffs. The purple eyed priest pulls out a Bible and start reading. a short man walked over to him and pours a vial of holy water over the snakes head, A black woman walks up behind him what roles up a shirt and pressed as a hot crucifix to his back the snake screams and The hot crucifix is lifted with a sickening squelch. The purple dyed priest finishes reading from the Bible and dismisses his cohorts to leave the room they do so and and the sound of a belt being dropped to the floor
Anyways the guy wasn't caught, jack ass used a condom and so there was no dna evidence

An indescribable silence fills the room until the angel finally says I think God every day then we got through this the snake silently walks up to the angel gives him a hug three embrace and silence returns

Chapter 21: A story about the smile doctor and his assistant

Chapter Text

Всем привет меня зовут-oh most of you probably don't speak my language sorry let me the start over again, you know what never mind I just remembered the name thing.

He speaks in a thick Russian accent with standard words.The man next to the doctor is short and Indian he speaks in a New Yorkers accent.

anyways I should probably get to it. Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment a much younger doctor stands next to people getting ready to be in a photo. A little bit of my childhood was OK. The abuse really started when I showed an interest in Flowers. The doctor is shown watering a patch of begonias with a toy watering can suddenly a tall shadow looms over him cut the doctor in his bathroom bawling his eyes out looking into his mirror his nose severely broken. That's how I got these, the doctor points to his gap tooth smile. The doctor presses his lips do a petal of a flower his door is Bust open Cut he sits on his floor surrounded by knocked out teeth weeping quietly

I'm here because of my father He's the reason why I lost the interest in flowers for a long time. The doctor lies on his bed looking through a flower magazine his door creeks open and the shadow of his father looms over him Cut the flower magazine is ripped to pieces around him his pants around his ankles he sits there try not to make a noise after a couple years I left to go to dentist school, The doctor walks into his dorm and is greeted by a man with 3-D glasses and a large scar on his head. I only went to dental school because my parents wanted me to see they were doctors as well, The doctor passes down to school with flying colors and joins the local dentists office I really and I really can't stress this enough hated being a dentist, The dentist looms of a small child wears a pair of pliers in his hand looking quickly displeased the child's mouth is perfectly fine but he still looks very very disappointed. I was fired from that job because well I hoarded a lot of my patients teeth, A jar of assorted teas lies on the doctors desk

I open a wellness center after I was fired you know to try to help sad people be less sad. The clinic doesn't work sad people just sort of stew in sadness until one day a young child caring a bouquet of flowers walks in to the wellness center. I didn't do much of a good job helping people really I don't think I would've ever help them because I was too busy stewing in my own problems. The child helps people around clinic. Eventually someone knock some sense into me quite literally, The doctor Rubs his face with a Band-Aid is on his left cheek. The child with the bouquet punches the doctor with a wrestling glove

After that I got professional help and I'm starting to get my life back on track. The doctor is shown tending to a flower shop watering plants and sweeping the floor. Me and my (he looks over to the man Beside him) my assistant are very close, the doctor and his assistant cuddle on the couch watching TV when a young girl with brown hair and a gap tooth smile jumps onto the couch and start smacking at the doctor screaming about a green menace. We even adopted a daughter her name is petunia, the doctor gives A wide broken smile.

After that I will set up for psychological evaluation that's where I met(his eyes become clouded was romantic feelings)him,

The fetish walks into a therapist office sitting at the desk is a handsome man much older than him and with a intracerebral accent.

Eventually I decided to quit my job and move in with him, well actually I was fired because I was deemed too unstable.

Our life together really is good we do things like go on romantic dates go clubbing sometimes what happened to me actually happened one time we went clubbing. The fetish is outside of the club having a cigarette he suddenly grabbed from behind and smacked up against the wall no matter how much he struggles he can't get out of the grasp and his Former psychiatrist now lover is still in the club, the fetish can't be heard over the music.

Chapter 25: A story about the boy who didn't like spooky month

Chapter Text

The boy who stands on stage is accompanied by two smaller boysThe boy in the middle is chubby has brown hair and is wearing striped sweater black pants and a baseball cap part his head, the smaller boy on his right is wearing a pumpkin costume, and a smaller boy on his left is wearing a skeleton costume. The two smaller boys we known as the skeleton(The one on the left) and the Punkin(The one on the right)

I don't know why they still here they just keep following me anyways let's get into this than I guess, The boy didn't always hate Halloween in fact in his younger years he loved it that is until his family decides to introduce him to his uncle, The stuff happened to me ever since I was nine I think, him and his uncles Halloween together is going pretty good at first that is until his uncle suggested go to a "spooky party" The boy only being at the time nine agrees, in hindsight my uncle always had this creepy air around him all the other kids around me really didn't like him, as he and his Uncle drive up to where is Uncle says the parties going to be, many kids look over to the Uncle's car and quickly look away while other go behind there parents.

He and his uncle get to place the Uncle open the door for the boy he excitedly goes in, at the time he told me what he was doing to me were games, uncle suggested play a game what specifically hide and seek the boy goes and hides him being very young does not hydrate good and the Uncle find some very easily very oddly Bianco does not have his pants on only his boxers and he grabs the boy very firmly, at the time I thought it was fun, this encounter has no penetration the boys only sat next to his uncle Will he is found on one of the mansion couches the Uncle is very touchy-feely, really it's the third time he took me to the place where things got suspicious, The at the time 11-year-old boy leaves the mansion he and his uncle go to the house there " spooky parties" not the outfit he went in instead he's wearing a long white shirt and baggy pants were originally he was wearing a pirate uniform, he bought some drinks with him most pacifically alcoholic drinks I spilled some on me and he was a bit too eager to get my costume off of me,

Skip a couple Halloween's the now 13 boy is giving his first taste of trauma by the hands of his uncle this causes him though he does not realize why yet because I shouted out as much specifically the skeleton and the Punkin, because of the stuff I've been through I've started to be kind of rude, he and two of his buddies stop the pumpkin the skeleton in their Halloween adventure they spit on the masks, step on the feet, and hit them a little on the head then the boy suggests they go to where his uncle has been taking him for a "spooky party" they being as naïve as he once was widely agreed to do so and go on their way to certain trauma, if you weren't doing no he didn't do what he did to me to them luckily I don't know what happened to stop him from doing it but it was a real miracle, skeleton I'm a pumpkin or sent back and away from the boys Uncle fear in their eyes certainly the boys a grab from behind and can't wait to safety by a man in a blue world pools before he books it away from the Uncle kicked him in the dick The Uncle falls over in pain and before the scene cuts away a shadow looms over him

You know ever since I haven't seen my uncle ever again not that I miss him or anything it's just odd not even my family are worried about where he is, The Uncle is trapped down to a table the same shadow that loomed over him in a mansion rooms over him again this time accompanied by another camera pans up revealing to people the familiar shadow is revealed to be a duplicate while the new shadow is a man with yellow hair and a hungry gleam in his eyes cut did you and the yellow haired man sitting at the dinner table only the yellow haired man is eating what is eating as weird slab of meat did you look at looks upon the man and by extension his meal in discussed, anyways I guess The boy looks over to the skeleton and mothers what was it called again The skeleton that's out spooky month and he and the pumpkin begin to spooky dance slowly at first the boy joins in the dance but soon they are all vigorously spooky dancing they seem to be having a good time

Chapter 30: A story about the Living Dead Man (and the little girl who brought him back to life)

Chapter Text

The man who stands on stage is sloppy but happy, he wears a stained t-shirt emblazoned with the logo of a hippie band, his hair is messy and dyed blue," yeah I'm gross" the man says before letting out a stomach curdling Belch," I wouldn't have it any other way"

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment, the dead man in an office clean shaven and miserable, he works in a suffocating job, in a suffocating suit, under suffocating superiors, the most suffocating of all being the CEO, a man in all black who barely anyone saw the face of, noah her the voice of, but they all felt his suffocating death like presents every day of their employment, at least all the low level employees did
"And it wasn't just the employees the company suffocated"
The dead man watches TV and watches on the news as his company suffocates culturally rich under the weight of gentrification
I felt like I had no more life to live
The dead man is given an assignment to scout out another small town for his company to crush, when he gets there something about the town seems to claw at the Shell of a man he is at that moment
That was until
The dead man is introduced to the girl who will give him new life when she Bears into him in a surprise hug, he looks down at this girl and a little bit more of his shell self is chipped away
It was a gradual thing
The dead man lives in the girls attic seeing as the town has no hotels for him to squat in, every day the girl brings up breakfast and and talks to the dead man, sometimes the man talks back to her, and everyday chips away at the show that he suggested himself into
Eventually I started accompanying the girl, at first I rationalized it as getting to know the town better
The dead man goes camping with the girl and her friends, cut the dead man accompanies the girl to one of her friends barmitzvahs, cut the dead man helps the little girl get better at baseball, his advice does fail at making her better but he feels good at least trying to help
One day I just realized I didn't want to see this town get crushed under the boot of my employers
The dead man stops calling to give updates to the company, and for the first time in a long time he feels like he's actually breathing, the very next day he writes a letter of resignation and sends it to his business
They didn't take it too well, I mean I'm here now so you can probably guess
Weeks past and he feels like he's safe from the Suffocation of his old life, until one day he's left alone as the rest of the family goes out for groceries, the dead man sits on the family couch watching tV and sloppily eating some chips, then there's a knocking at the door, when he opens it he sees two Burly men that work at his old job

They knock me out and when I woke up, I was tied up and I finally got to see the boss's face 
The dead man and a location he doesn't recognize, in front of him is his old boss and his old superiors, the boss is a skeletal man his hair is white as bone and and his eyes are so sunken in the count more is a sockets than actual eyes, but the dead man knows that those eyes bore into his soul 
They took turns with me, they were going to kill me but 
The dead man after what felt like an eternity of pain in his backside here's the click of a gun and cold metal being pressed to the back of his head, he braces for pain and death but there's a crashing from somewhere and when he opens his eyes to look over he sees the girl flanked by officers from the town's Police Department 
Turns out they brought me to an abandoned building in the town, it was kind of a dumb move on that part, i've always wanted to sue them and now I had some ammo
the dead man in a courtroom testifying all the sins his company has committed
The money I got from that legal battle really helped make it back to the town that gave me a reason to live again
The dead man donates to all sorts of places around town, cut the dead man and his new families dining room eating like a slob, messy and happy for once in a long time

Chapter 31: A story about the riddles

Chapter Text

three people stand on stage are grown adult men, a brunette and a black haired man,  and College age girl with brunette hair like one of the men, black haired man and the brunette girl share a Goth aesthetic of clothing

"I'll go first since I'm the smartest" the brunette man says irritating smugness lacing his tone

the first riddle: if you're so smart, why aren't you rich

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the first had always been interested in games and puzzles, and absolute ways at anything academic he put his mind to he was the top of his class, his academic success was not only fueled by his like of being praised but also a need to be noticed and plays like he is by his teachers and peers by emotionally distant father

I know now that my father was never going to give me any notice he never wanted me in the first place

the first swedes through college and lands himself a very good paying job at a game company, though he is smart the first didn't have the foresight to read the fine print of the contract, mostly because he was blinded by the promise of thousands praising him

my first game, you may have heard about it, riddle of the Minotaur, did give me a lot of praise for my drawing public, though I didn't get any of the money I was promised for my brilliance

one day the first comes into work and his office is locked not soon after he's sitting in his car no job, no money, he was promised and the only thing left he had was anger and a slowly forming plan

see I couldn't sue him for the money I was owed, but I did all of a different way to get the money

it was surprisingly easy to break into his boss's house, though he did need some assistance from some street thugs he gave like 50 bucks to and promised a lot more

feeling a little statistic I made a little bit of a game out of it, not only would someone have to bring me the amount I was owed in royalties but they were all so have to solve a little riddle I concocted if they wanted to see my boss free

someone did come but only with an answer and a punch, so the first is left was a black eye and once again nothing sequestered in a madhouse that does help get to the root of his need for praise

when I got out I was contacted by a toy company who wanted my extreme genius to help them flourish, I accepted and I honestly believed I could set my past behind me, but I'm here now so it didn't last long, that little Ransom plan really spooked my boss and when he read I got release he understandably panicked

the first sits on his couch and his new Swanky apartment graciously given to him by his new employers, there comes a knocking at his door and when the first answers to Burly men Tower above him mentioned something about his boss and sending a message and Corner him back on to the couch, and after a gagged session of pain not only infected to his bottom half but all over the body he's left spoiled on his couch pain pounding throughout him

Lucky they didn't break anything, honestly my boss could have just filed a restraining order, not that I would have had the desire to ever see him again

the first has to take a mental health leave from his new employment and the loss of his guidance very quickly causes the company to tank and be absorbed by a bigger toy company who do not want his guidance and so once again he is without a job, but before he can get any dumb ideas about revenge he's contacted by a much better job opportunity, and thus he becomes a sugar baby to a deformed but well-paying sugar daddy, who kind of looks like a penguin in a certain light light but money is money and his cock is still people shaped

I'm up next, it says the blackhead man and before he continues he freshens up his very nice black lipstick

the second riddle: the question you can never answer yes to

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the second life is much like the first he does well in school not only for praise for his peers but for an impossible achievement of getting praise from a dysfunctional family member, but his father does notice him but not in the way he wants to be noticed and many times he comes to school with bruises on his arms and determination to try harder

I know now that if I ever got his praise I'd realize I never even wanted it

unlike the first the second does not go into entertainment but but into educating the world, he gets into inventing and Sparks up good relations with a female coworker who he believes reciprocates his Crush

but one day an invention he and his coworker had created in an attempt to enhance the human mind goes haywire and nearly kills the test subject during the live demonstration, the second suspects his boss and begins plotting much like the first

I did not want money I wanted Revenge, and I did not intend for an answer to set him free

but somehow someway someone gets wind of his kidnapped boss and interrupts his death trap and brings frustration to him and freedom to his boss, but the second gets away and begins to plot once more

I intended to hack into the cities internet database to get evidence of my boss's transgressions but I ran into a bit of a predicament

the seconds hacking he was doing in a motel room is interrupted by the door being burst open by hired thugs, hired by his boss sent to much like those sent by the first's boss, send a message, but unlike the first he is not where left where they find him but his move to a different location to make sure he doesn't talk

they put me in a storage crate and put that storage crate into the ocean, luckily the person who said my boss was keeping tabs on me

when he's out of that near death situation and half the time he tentatively continues his research and comes Upon A shocking discuss way, it wasn't his boss who sabotaged him it was his coworker, he's understandably crushed but knows if he tries anything hasty he'll probably end up getting punched, so he does the rational thing gathers help his information and sues her ass

I use the money I got from the lawsuit and had a not all the time and met someone very nice

during his post Court Victory clubbing session he goes to the Iceberg Lounge and meet a relative of the owners a short redhead who much like the owner looks like a penguin in a certain light, he's drawn to the deformed little man not only cuz he's funny but because he recently gotten into the good graces of the owner and was now absolutely loaded

I'm going finally I suppose, says the brunette college girl

the final riddle without an answer: why is a raven like a writing desk

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the final grows up in a loving healthy household to Two Loving healthy parents, she does good in school not for praise but for love of learning, though the praise is a plus, those something about her lack of anything linking her to the  redhead man that says that he's the one who gave the sperm for her surrogate birth  intrigues her

I'm not like these two, the girl points to her stage companions, my name doesn't start with an e for one

the final grows up witnessing the people around her get horny from their hormones, but something about the lust in the air doesn't induce lust in her only discussed

I'm a sex repulsed asexual, yeah I do flick the bean once in a while but only when I have nothing better to do

the third has a pair of twin younger siblings who when she barely starts college and they are in the middle of high school decide to go on a night on the town, this night ends with the female twin incredibly inebriated and violently making out with a bar Patron inside of the third's car

I probably should have pushed down my Revolution and try to tough it out until we got home, but she was just so loud and wet so I gave the wheel to my brother and decided to walk the rest of the way home

halfway through her walk back she drops her phone and when she reaches down to grab it two hands grab her from the alley

see the guy who did this to me was this disgusting bar Patron who despite my, she gestures to her body which is quite on sexy with it's flat chest and non-existent ass, rather convenient lack of assets just had to get a piece of me, no accounting for taste one supposes

when it said and done She lays there defiled and disgusted, she calls her brother and thankfully the bar preached when her sister was sharing Spit with was already back home

he has another difference I have but from these two, I actually succeeded in a kidnapping and murder

the final looms over her soldier who she had castrated and had recently relieved of his sorry life

though I do have one thing in common with these two, I wouldn't relationship was a similarly shaped person to theirs

the final cuddles with a penguin shaped girl who has a striking resemblance with them but then it's to the first's penguin shaped special someone, they're just cuddling watching Nature Documentaries
 and to answer the riddles, first you may be smart but you're still naive, second are you asleep, and third... I don't know

Chapter 32: A story about the puppet Prodigy and his co-stars

Chapter Text

Two adults and a barely teen stand on stage, the tallest figure is a black man with red dreads snuggle tight in a red sweater, he has a broad look on his face, the other adult is a white man was growing hair that almost looks green in a certain light, he's wearing a casual suit. And finally the barely teen has purple dyed hair and is wearing childish overalls over t-shirt, his ears are plugged by earbuds and he's bobbing quietly to some music

"he doesn't remember what happened", the red one begins, "and we don't really know the specifics of what happened, but we know enough and seeing as he's here I don't think we want to know more"

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment, the puppet prodigy is the younger of two brothers, though his brother may look similar to him they couldn't be any more different, when he's kindergarten age he's quite energetic and out go in while his teenage brother is shy and introverted, the lives are good, the parents have quite well paying jobs, the father who has a habit of a little bit of smoking on to Broadcasting Company, and their mother who does occasionally take a couple sips of the old wine makes puppets for her husband's shows

we'd like to believe the kids parents used to be nice before what happened, the green one says hopefully

one day the puppet Prodigy is playing in the yard and gets distracted by a pigeon who lands in a nearby tree, it flies off when he gets close and he yells for his brother to go get it, the brother tries but flies off and he trips on a shoelace and then

but we know they weren't after, the red one finishes

the puppet Prodigy is too young to know why his mother is crying so much and why his father seems to be smoking those smelly sticks more often, one day Mom leaves and never comes back

we only know all this cuz of research after the fact, we should probably get into the whole name thing, the red one begins

the puppet prodigy never does get any more schooling past kindergarten, his father makes him part of one of his newest shows, which isn't very well done seeing as his wife's creations had left ownership of his company, now we move the scene from the puppet to his co-stars, the red one is scouted from a drunken comedy musical number he does after a day in his monotonous job, and the green one is scouted a drag show

the show itself wasn't too well made but we work with what we had, the green one finishes

the show itself was Child's entertainment much like many others made by the puppet Prodigy's father. But this one was more educational,

his dad never touched him, the red one begins

the puppet Prodigy's co-stars notice him coming in with bruises but they chalk it up to him being a kid

doesn't mean you didn't hurt him, the green one finishes

many lessons are taught on the show, like creativity, time, eating healthy, dreams,... And love

most of the people they brought on to teach the lessons were nice enough, the red one begins

the love teacher is a man who dresses himself in quite religious attire, the co-stars think he might be a youth pastor, he's quite friendly guy, though he is a bit touchy with the puppet prodigy, and he brings a lot of God talk into his love lesson

but this guy was a bit too nice, the green one continues

puppet prodigy has to use the restroom after the filming of the episode is done but gets a little sidetracked when he is funny music from the special guest room, he goes in and sees the funny love man, the man notices him and offers some of the liquid his mom used to drink, The Prodigy tries to refuse saying that that's for adults, but the funny love man assures him that it's only grape juice, but it doesn't taste like any grape juice The Prodigy's ever tasted when he does taste it, in fact it tastes funny than what his mom described her drink as, it kind of makes him feel tired

he wasn't nice at all, the Prodigy finishes popping out an earbud, a quite grumpy look on his face the red one thumps and to continue listening to his music and he does so but he's still a little bit grumpy

The Prodigy doesn't know what happened when he wakes up, all he knows is that his bum is a little bit sore and he still got a funny taste in his mouth but this one's more salty, the series continues only two more episodes because the Prodigy becomes a little bit weary of the guests especially when they try to touch him

he had a breakdown during the final episode and it was broadcasted and people got worried for his well-being, the red one begins

the puppet Prodigy is taken from his dad and given to his mother who he is quite relieved to see once more, but he's a little bit worried when he sees she's been drinking more of that red stuff, and things keep getting weirder when she starts yelling then crying then yelling then laughing then more crying and circles and Circles of emotions, but things are probably okay cuz she's telling him that she loves him very much, and he knows Mom's love is a good sort of love not like that funny man's love

his Mom sued his dad's company and got ownership there was another show, the green one finishes and begins

the new show is more well made and tackles more mature lessons, like jobs, family, dying, transportation, friendship, and electricity

his mom seem to be a nice lady for the most part, the red one continues

during the electricity episode which was also the final of the new series, because co-stars on the break room talking about a date later, when the Prodigy and his mother come in The Prodigy seems upset about something and his mother seems do not notice the upsetness, his mother gives him some lasagna to eat but he doesn't want lasagna he wants spaghetti and he says so quite undeniably, his mother tries to explain but he sure in his wants and his mother becomes quite cross cross and

but then she did something she promised she'd never do, the Prodigy finishes popping out an earbud again

anyways after the courts ruled neither of his parents were not fit to parent him, we stepped in and now things are normal and quiet and the only education he gets is from school again, the red one finishes and all three of them share a hug, a lot of people might not think of them as a family but that doesn't matter a families whatever you want it to be, be it two parents of different genders or the same or just one or people that just share a lawyer

Chapter 33: The cynical fortune teller and the Brothers From Hell

Chapter Text

Three black people stand on stage, one teenager and two grown men, the girl is wearing casual Punk attire, and the two adults where brand t-shirts for an amusement park

"sup, on the chick the ghost Maiden was talking about", the fortune teller says was a wave to the audience

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the fortune teller in her younger years as happy as could be with her true loving parents, on the day her life will change her parents take her to a amusement park near their town just passed the big bridge into town, meanwhile the Brothers From Hell in their teens work at their fathers amusement park as janitors, the rest of their extended family also work at the park, two both sides of this tail interact for the first time when the young fortune teller wants a candy apple but is told to annoyance that they just sold out by the vendor, the girl begins to weep and one of the brothers, the skinnier one plucks a oddly pristine looking candied apple from the garbage, and hands it to the girl

we didn't know it at the time but we were going to meet again

on the way back into town the girl finds out why that Apple was in the trash when a fat worm Burrows it's way out of its aptly home and through the candied shell causing the girl to panic and a sequence of events that ends with her in the waters below the bridge and her parents six leagues below

I used to blame myself a lot for that

many years later the fortune teller has grown jaded from her time in the Foster system which soon becomes the prison system, when she finally does go back to the town it's greatly changed the once blossoming streets have become Gray and nearly hopeless, the fortune teller finds that her new life in this town is as a " student" in the towns crumbling Reformatory

apparently my parents blew away which was a big money maker in the town burned down and everything just sort of went downhill from there, especially with some prison contractors decided to move into town and start buying up businesses

the fortune teller is stop go away into the Reformatory by a mixed blonde and her friends in addition to that goat who starts talking rapidly at her, she's just about to punch one of them when she gets a sudden flash of a horrible future involving the blonde a brick and the two impacting, instinctually she pushes the blonde out of the way of the brick she senses is going to fall, which it does so not a second after the blonde hits the ground making quite a gut plunging sound when it does Hit the Floor which would have been much bloodier if the fortune teller hadn't known to push

that's where I got the idea for the name

meanwhile back with the hell Brothers their jobs at their father's Park have become more boring ever since the rest of their extended family either moved to buy your pastures or just straight up disappeared, they quell that boredom with the hopes of making a better amusement park and by getting absolutely smashed on some of their fathers prescribed weed for his stomach ulcers, the proceed to have a maybe prophetic hallucinations and see visions of the fortune teller, they choose to believe those absolutely wild visions were of the future and decide to go into town

we still like to believe it was a vision from the universe, the shorter brother begins

I mean they have to be the version we saw in the vision is the same we saw when we came into town and finally met her again, the skinnier one finishes gesturing towards the fortune teller

back with a fortune teller she gains a friend, the only boy in the all girl Reformatory, they even help each other get out of detention when they put there after the fortune teller makes a disturbance after being spooked by a squid brought in for biology class, the two decide to go visit the fortune tellers parents Graves

he's a really great guy, and his mom make some bomb ass Rogan josh

meanwhile the hell brothers are also in the cemetery different part of it though, they don't really know why they came to cemetery just sort of an instinct thing, but before they can ruminate anymore about the wise of their Cemetery trip they see something quite alarming, a man and a woman dragging what looks to be a very wet sack towards an open grave, though when they pull what turns out to be a corpse from the bag it's not as dead as I thought it was, which is demonstrated by it spasming and beginning to spew sea water before coughing itself back to life

 

we probably try to call the cops but they started offering money to keep us quiet and it was a lot of money, the taller brother explains 

 

still with the hello Brothers the two of them are climbing up the hills of the cemetery to alone telephone pole, and using the electrical skills I learned from their time in the fair they get it working once more

in addition to paying us to keep our mouths shut they also paid us to fix up a phone line to the outside world, so they could call up some... friends and family of some very old deceased, the short brother elaborates

 

back with the fortune teller of the other two after the visit to the cemetery she gets very upsetting news from her friend that earlier that morning relatives of some ancient members of the city council who were less than good people have settled up to town and using the rule set into the books by the old members have taken control of the council and are planning to demolish the whole town, but luckily they have a week or two to prepare and they start to make some phone calls to the outside world themselves

doing this rallying what happened to me happened

 

the fortune teller searches the school for the nun that teaches biology and instead finds the janitor looking over old photos, the shock of the girl appearing causes him to drop one of them and the scene on the photo is that of a janitor before the accident that took his legs in a guard uniform standing before a towering Castle of a prison next to him is one of the demon Brothers many extended family in the Garb of a prisoner, another shock comes to both parties when a third person enters the picture and grabs the fortune teller by the back of her neck a gun placed against her back as a warning both to her and to the wheelchair bound janitor not to speak a word

 

apparently two was too many shocks for the janitor and it begins to have a heart attack, his panicked screaming alerts someone upstairs and the biology non walks in to see some guy defiling the fortune teller while the janitor is having a heart attack, thinking quickly the woman grabs one of the jars of pickles on the many shelves and brings it down onto the defilers head

he only got two pumps into me before he got domed by a jar of pickles, not saying it wasn't traumatic but the pickle drawing did light in the mood a little bit

soon the day comes and a tidal wave of protesters quote the bulldozers in their tracks, and soon the drivers become disgruntled and turn off their engines, but there was still another problem to take care of, the prison entrepreneurs who brought the city to financial ruin still needed to be dealt with, and knowing a gag of disgruntled civilians were about to go full on French Revolution on their asses the woman of the couple calls the cops like white women are apt to do, but luckily their daughter the mixed blonde comes to the rescue with a file field was there secret Miss Deeds, the most extreme of all causing the fire that left the town vulnerable to their filthy intrusion

they're they're resting made a ripple effect that really was a good change, the fortune teller begins

turns out they've been wrongly imprisoning people to fill out their jails, some of them being some of our fam, the shorter brother continues

and when the wrongdoings was brought to the public a lot of them got released and Dad's park has been booming ever since, the taller brother finishes

the hell Brothers go back to the father with the good news and and the family Embraces finally reunited, meanwhile the fortune teller visits her old house and get some of her old things to liven up her dorm room, and she swear she can almost feel her parents embracing her when she looks upon an old photo

I used to think after my parents died that the world was void of any good people left, but there were still some good guys out there

like us?, the hell Brothers question matching smug Smiles on their faces

the fortune teller just snort laughs and responds, "don't push your luck" before giving a playful punch on the arm to both of them

Chapter 34: A story about the littlest disciple

Chapter Text

A man and his child stand on stage, the man is a brunette and a trucker hat with a quite nice looking mustache, his child looks around 12, despite how old he looks the hair on his head looks like that of a month old child sparse and wispy, the child is also wearing a comfy flowery dress but has a very boyish face

he's feeling like a boy today, the man says, but he likes the dress because it's pretty, he continues

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the little disciple is born to Two Loving parents, as he grows a routine becomes evident, when he's old enough for it he goes to kindergarten every week in a uniform that sometimes feels right on him and other days doesn't, on Saturday he watches TV with his mother who listens to a really loud man who talks about someone called God, and on Sundays they go to a big place and sitting weird chairs with some other loud guy talks about that God person some more, eventually he becomes old enough to recognize more of the words both of the loud men are talking about, sometimes he likes things to talk about like a place called heaven with its Eternal salvation and Paradise, other times he tries to hide in the folds of his mother's dress when the loud men talk about a place called hell with it's fire and demons and punishment for sins, he becomes even more spooked of demons specifically when his mother sits him down and tells him that she has to take special pills that keep out the voices of evil little imps let's try to making her do naughty things, and that he'll probably have to take them too when he's grown up, but not right now he's still young and God has sent a Guardian Angel to keep away the imps

me and my wife are Christians

the routine is interrupted when one day the little disciple becomes very sick and has to be taken to the hospital, and on his 10th birthday they tell his parents he has a tumor, luckily it's big enough where they can cut it out without the danger of removing important parts of his brain, though they can pay for the surgery it does make a heavy blow to the bank account, and all they get from there congregation is Promises of prayers for financial goodness, it begins to take a toll on both of the disciples parents, his mother begins to watch more of that loud man and his father begins to drink a funny smelling liquid that makes him act funny, sometimes his dad is angry at the world and sometimes he's a puking mess, but either way each day starts to end with a screaming match between his parents and his mother leading him in prayer that their lives may become better one day

she was just one a little bit harder than I was

one day the disciples father walks out on them leaving leaving he and his mother who soon after stops taking the special pills and spends nearly all day lying on the sofa listening to the loud man and his yelling about God, things seem to be becoming normal with only small little hiccups like the one day the disciple comes to school and one of his mother's childhood dresses and is laughed back home crying, but one day his mother he was a voice from what she believes to be God

if I knew what was going to happen to him I- I would have stayed, I would have tried to be a better man

Soon it's summer and the things that would bring him Joy are strip from him, explained as removing Temptation from his life, he believes but he is skeptical of how things like his crayons or his clothes are anything evil, soon the voice comes again to his mother and he is sequestered to his blank room and fed very little

and please don't think she's a bad person she was sick and... and I just couldn't be there for her when she needed it

soon God speaks to his mother One Last Time bidding her to cleanse him with her body and baptized him in his own blood, the disciple does put out the most Valiant fight he can muster for boys so young and so malnourished as he, but it is no use and soon his underaged body being crushed not only when we go away of his humongous mother but being squeezed inside of the holes at once pushed him into the world, when it's raining is done his mother is exhausted enough for him to scurry back to his room and into the only place is panicking mine you can think a large if you chest that used to hold all of his toys, this is inside the other voice of his mother only causes him hyperventilate more, and soon the lack of oxygen makes him pass out

luckily she found him and her motherly instincts kicked in enough to take him to Hospital

he begins to see The Shining lights of paradise but when things become a bit clearer it's the lights in a hospital, and sitting next to his bed is his father relief flooding his eyes

she's getting to help she needs and now I have full custody, the disciples father begins before the emotions get the better of him and he begins to weep

the disciple tugs on the man's shirt and when the man calms himself enough to bend down the boy whisper something into his ear

yeah champ, I can read you the Bumbo story when we get home, the father says before scooping the disciple into his arms and walking off stage

Chapter 35: A story about the three biggest stars in Canis Major

Chapter Text

Three black haired teenagers stand on stage, the tallest " serious' is a tall boy wearing a black sweater and brown pants, the second tallest "Mirzam" is a boy and a red cap and blue sweatshirt with black pants, and finally the shortest and the only girl of the group "

wezen" has a flower in her black hair is wearing a black sweater and a very pretty pink skirt

 

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the three brightest stars start their lives in an orphanage but as soon as they turn six they're taking it by a lovely adopted family

 

our original adopted family were both writers for the show we all starred in, serious begins

one day their parents decide that they should be the voices for new characters for the show they created, they take to it like fish to water

 

things were looking good for us, but then the accident happened.Mirzam continues

the brightest stars parents get into a car accident onto the way to the anniversary lunch while the children are in the at the time temporary but from that point forward permanent care of their uncle, hey cheery man turn man who seems not as genuinely sad as a children are to the death of their parents

honestly that guy was a walking red flag but we were young and grieving and we were grateful to still have someone to look after us,

wezen finishes
the children continue their voice acting career but it soon becomes apparent that they're much better at voicing than their uncle is, and as the episodes go by the show becomes less focused on his character and more on theirs, he keeps his cheated meaner but it becomes less and less sincere

one day the show became completely about all characters and his was completely scrapped from the show, serious begins

the first of the Stars to know their uncles dissatisfaction with this decision to make the show completely about their characters was wezen who seemed the easiest pin down and defile with her short stature and naive Trust in their uncle

he didn't like that,Mirzam continues

the second to feel it is Mirzam whom the uncle drugs by putting roofies in his celebratory after a successful dubbing soda

he really really didn't like that,wezen finishes and begins

serious would have been the Third if he hadn't noticed his siblings on Behavior nearly uncle and if he had to have gotten a weird feeling from the uncles suggestion that they go for a ride in his car was out his siblings, and later that night when the uncle tries to brute force it serious knows exactly what to do and soon after the uncle is on the floor concussed from a particularly hard whack over the head from a toy hammer made from a conveniently hard plastic

though it was a relief not to be under his care anymore we were kind of spooked that we go back to the orphanage system,Mirzam continues

luckily the fears of Orphan system life are quickly abated when they're taken in by people still working for the studio the cartoon they voiced in was made by, though in a different department, both have white hair but one's white hair comes from some sort of accent and the other is from age, the one with the Aged white hair is around the same height as the shortest star And the way his hair thins out gives the impression that he has a very big forehead, and the one was accident white hair is well some would say dumb as rocks but he's smart certain fields like the entertainment industry though only the catch phrases but they both love their new children nonetheless

thanks really worked out in the end we're still with the company and we got two parents again, serious finishes

Chapter 36: A tale about the genius and the madman

Chapter Text

Two men stand on stage both have white hair but differently caused, the shorter one who's balding in a certain way that makes them look like it has a big head is clearly white from age, the other who is taller and is distractedly watching a comedy on his phone is clearly white from some sort of accident
I'm going to be telling both stories because he's too... Damaged to remember anything, says the shorter one

The story about the genius and the madman
Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment, a genius in the madman in their childhood both with mousy brown hair, the genius is the old of the two, the best friends
He wasn't always as... off as he is now,
Both the genius and the madman were both smart though in different ways, the madman was more gifted and entertainment knowledge well the genius was a natural at solving puzzles and equations, soon their paths straight away and the genius went to college where he found and intellectual rival
He may have been smart but I was always a little bit more than he
And he was doing the big test before graduation his intellectual rival made one less than the genius and though both of them graduated with flying colors one graduated with a bit brighter colors than the other
I thought we parted with me the better man on friendly terms

The genius gets a position at a testing facility who specializes in human trials of experimental devices and chemicals, soon he finds that the madman is one of the regular test subjects and the two start to catch up, he also finds that his intellectual rival is also in the company but working for it not guinea pigging for it, and there were known to him is intellectual why we didn't take his loss as good as he thought
But I'm here now so obviously we didn't
Soon the genius finds that the company isn't as careful with their test subjects as he once thought, on multiplications he's seen people clearly not lucid enough to leave the facility being sent out, it becomes very apparent that most of the chest subjects of people who are either financially not doing so great or a minority, but the worst of all he noticed is that slowly the madman began to mentally degrade, so he makes up a plan to get evidence the company's wrong doing and the intellectual rival notices
I don't know why he did it maybe he just did it because he hated me
It happens when the genius is looking through the camera full a photo evidence of the company's misdeeds in the bathroom when the intellectual rival comes in with a syringe filled with what is soon discovered by The Genius to be a paralytic agent takes the camera and flushes it down the toilet, cut the genius sits where he's left body aching with emotional and physical pain unable to move and two mentally traumatized to scream, soon the paralytics wear off and he shakely walks out of the bathroom and out of the building
After I went home wash myself off and had a good trauma cry I had another try at it and got another camera full of evidence and this time decided to take it straight to the cops
The building is rated and security tapes are found of sexual misconduct with the patients most to mentally degraded to remember anything what happened and those that are mentally there enough to remember have been chemically muted, the genius sees the tape given to him of the madman's own rape, or more specifically rapes, in the beginning he screamed and arrived and had to be paralyzed to keep him from injuring any of his assaulters, and as the chemical treatments went by he started struggling less and less and at one point taking his own clothes off to let them have him, with his mind to melted to realize what was happening to him

His mind slowly been unmelting he's there enough to function as a weird but grown adult but the chemical brain melting and Trauma must have repressed it a bit too hard for any kind of psychiatry to bring it out, we still don't do sex I'm asexual and he's a bit flinchy around anything phallic
The madman does get better but it takes time and soon when he's loosen enough to notice the world around him again his best friend is much older and so is he
We still have jobs though not in anything scientific we have jobs that are filming Studio it's still testing things but more fun things like fake hammers or comedy routines
The genius and the madman now live a pleasant little life with three rambunctious voice Stars
You know I used to think one day I'd rule the world but now I have the only world I'm ever going to need, the genius reaches out his hand and the madman takes it and it just stand there knowing that the world is finally

Chapter 37: A story about the inebriated founder (followed by the Lost memories of the surviving amnesiac)

Chapter Text

The man who stands on stage is aged not only by time but by the guilt and humiliation he had suffered throughout his life, is brown hair is Whiting more than a man his age chronologically should, and his eyes are yellow with the side effects of a horrible damaging addiction

I probably should have told her about all this first, and I will but I want to practice on Strangers before I have to look into the eyes of the daughter of a family I murdered, the daughter of the man I betrayed so thoroughly with my stupid addiction

instead of Spotlight a movie fragment the founder and it's called that she is thinking up business ideas with his best friend in the world a man was a smile so wide and nearly split his face into and was hair so black and curly he could barely get a brush through it without some help, the most common idea they come up with is a place inspired by the show runners duplicate's father's business idea

this was long before William died and all his Dirty deeds were put out into the world, he actually used to be my inspiration before he... I could probably talk about what I did before I talk about what happened to me

college passes and soon the dreams become a reality they hire some indie musicians and their business though not as popular as their inspiration does get some traction from people who want somewhere this crowded to have their birthday parties, though after one particularly good business day the two of them decide to have some drinks not only for the business day success but for the founder's friend proposing childhood sweetheart, the founder gets a problem

it just felt so good going into me, and circumstances just kept me turning to the bottle

unsuccessful days he drinks in celebration unless than that you drinks to know the disappointment of less than stellar income, the mumps turn to years and the friend gains a family, soon one kid turns to twins, and the founder keeps drinking

my life started falling apart before I got the call

the drinking makes a wedge between the founder and his wife and soon she leaves, he's not feeling too up to anything but laying in bed and drinking his sorrows away like he usually does with anything bad, but then his phone rings, it's the friend he's asking him to take his younger children to a school party

I probably should have said no, but I was up to anything distract me from the divorce

luckily the school has a bar for adults and soon he drinks like he would have if he said no, he drinks away the sorrow he drinks way the noise of the children in the party room and soon two little hands pull on his pants legs

I knew I probably should have called my friend to pick them up, but at the time I didn't feel that drunk

and for the most part you didn't seem that unable to drive maybe was a little bit too wavy on the Wheel but he was getting there good, it was probably just a Darkness it was the middle of the night, and he's so busy excusing himself to keep up his shortness that he's going to make it that he supposed is maybe just a couple seconds of clothes I just wouldn't hurt I mean the world isn't that full, and then Darkness

when I woke up my head was pounding

maybe it's from the alcohol maybe it's from the bleeding gas and his forehead but he's hurt and he can barely think straight, and his panicking mind can only think of one thing to do when he looks back and sees that his young passengers aren't moving in fact they're not even breathing

I was panicking, maybe that doesn't excuse it but I didn't know what else to do

Adidas soon done and the dirt is cold and filthy on his hands and he feels like he'd been digging for ages like he'd aged a million years in those hours he'd been digging and dragging those bodies, no I'm not what else to do he begins calling for help because rose up and

it was William my idol, I told him everything well not everything everything just the drunk driving part he was weirdly enthusiastic to to drive me home

nothing happens and soon he's home and the phone calls start, each message the friend leaves morphs from witness to his children to anger, maybe some of the messages are his own panicking mind hallucinating the spewed Anger from his friend The Voice maybe it's the voice of his friend calls him a murderer, a monster,a drunken idiot, ideas of things and no matter how much he tries to drown his guilt with a bottle of brandy it just keeps coming to the surface

they just pulled out the cord of the answering machine I stayed in my house for days

and even after he went back to working he kept himself locked in his office and away from his friend lest all the guilt he had Spilled Out in one tidal wave that ended in him losing the trust of his friend forever

one day though it became inevitable that it had to interact we both have to go to an out of the way storage facility together and everything just spilled

the friend reacts how he thought it would angry not only at what happened to his children but also at his friend for so stupid to even do it in the first place, the argument becomes a fight and soon the phone cord from the Red emergency phone is wrapped around the friend's neck and before founder knows it his friend is dead by his own hands, the very obvious strangling mark undeniable evidence of his guilt

i panicked again and just left

his first instinct is to go to the nearest bar and try to drink away the memory of his friend lying cold on a warehouse floor, there he meets once again his Idol William who eagerly invites him to a car to his house, he could have something to help with the alcohol to get his mind off all his crimes up to that point he agrees

it's a blur after that, all I can remember is more drinks, somewhere in the process taking my own pants off and then falling unconscious on his couch, God!, it is own house, I suppose it's a blessing that all of his children except for the eldest were dead at that point

the next day the founder wakes up to a naked behind and bile stinging his throat, when he tries to get up his whole back hurts but most of all his ass

after I threw up in his toilet as a question myself to my home again and after that I was alone running a business, all they had left was cheaply made burgers and Indie band and booze

he doesn't know why he does it but one day he plugs his phone back in and calls up his friend's house, he's not expecting anyone to pick up but when he hears the voice of his friends eldest daughter it's like hearing the voice of his dead friend calling him a monster all over again

apparently she's been taking something that clouded her memory of more important things about her life, she started taking it when... Well maybe she should tell you about it but all I have to know is I was the Tipping Point of her memories coming back, and now I'm going to have to break your heart all over again with another tragedy from her past that she didn't even know before she began forgetting

so yeah I'm pretty torn up about it on the one hand maybe it's better that she doesn't know but on the other it feels like sooner or later I'm going to break down in front of her and tell her everything I might as well tell her was a lot less breakdown screaming

...

Meanwhile outside of the mansion the amnesiac Survivor reminisces and all she has remembered

he's born to a loving family with a father that smiles so wide it splits his face in half and the laughs so contagious it's an epidemic

the years go by and get some youngest siblings in the Forum of a pair of twins one male and one female

tragedy strikes as one day they go missing after a school party and not a month after her father disappears after he goes on a trip to a company Warehouse

and then the day comes the tragedy that caused her to take something to lose the memories of her life, one day her mother goes looking for a father comes back with great sadness in her eyes and not a day later hangs herself in her bedroom

she remembers many things now not specifically what she was taking he must have stopped going into a system long enough for something like a voice from her past to bring it all crashing back to her, she wakes and remembers the person prescribed it to her Hugo she thinks the guy's name was a very bald man very Sinister facial hair, she thinks he's dead now maybe

her musings of many things like who the hell Hugo was and where to take her girlfriend for the anniversary tomorrow isn't erupted by Felix an old family friend and the man that was the Domino of everything she had forgotten coming back to her sitting in the passenger seat and looking at her with sad determination

Sophie.. I need to tell you something

Chapter 38: The story of the Ursas

Chapter Text

Four people stand on stage, three of them are men in their twenties maybe on the precipice of 30s, all of different nationalities, and the one female of the group is a young Korean girl barely passed the age  of  12

Ursa belyy will go first, state the snow white man who nearly camouflages into his hoodie  sing as it's just as white as he, his voice is accented in Russian

the tale of Ursa belyy (White)

Ursa white started his life push tragedy though he does not remember it well he sometimes has nightmares of losing his parents not long after being pushed from his mother's womb, old enough to know how to walk into instincts really know that the men holding those weird looking devices are dangerous, old enough to have the image of his mother lying staining the snow beneath her red from the wound in her head, be burned into his

Ursa belyy does not know how long he ran

but what he does remember is finding shelter desperately trying to Stave off hypothermia at the fire stove, the warp nearly loads him into Slumber when he's shaking awake by strong hands, he screams wildly thrashing in the hold of what he could only assume to be the murderers of his family, after a time when no violence is done upon him he struggles cease and he gets a good look at the person holding him, the man is old his beard obscuring his mouth and his eyes hard with tragedy

man decided to let Ursa belyy stay

the man took care of her so white trying as hard as he could to keep an emotional distance but eventually over time the man began to see the Young boy as a son,  when the boy is older still not old enough to take care of himself but old enough to be curious of the world, he looks through a chest the man has said never to open and what he sees paints a very telling picture of why the man was so reluctant to be kind in the beginning, a photo of the man younger was a wife and daughter, the girl holds a wooden horse proudly, and that pride is mirrored on her parents' faces

Ursa belyy  decided to make gift for man

it's crude but it's close enough to the wooden horse in the picture that the man instantly recognizes it, and for the first time in his years without his loved ones he lets himself cry, the two embrace years of pent up anguish spilling for the man's cheeks onto the young boys consoling face

life was good for a while

but you are out hunting for food on a particularly snowy day, the man is teaching the boy how to hunt for himself, for he knows he is old and wants the boy to be able to take care of himself when the day comes that he is gone, the boy knows this too, but he does not have time to dwell upon such existential quandaries when the sound of dogs is heard on the horizon and soon familiar figures come rushing on snow bikes, brandishing weapons that are familiar to the boy

not for long though

the man drives as fast as he can away from the hunters, he does not know why they chase him and the boy, but he gets a hint when the snowmobile the two are on suddenly gives out near the edge of the snowy Island they inhabit, "его шкура будет продаваться по хорошей цене"(his skin will sell for good price), one of the men says with a laugh in his voice as he points the gun he holds to the boy who had fallen from the snowmobile near the edge of the ice, thinking quickly the man rushes like an angry bear to the hunters brandishing his ax, the hunters real back in surprise giving the man enough time to make sure the boy escapes, with a mighty heave of his ax he splits the ice the boy sira upon from the land and sets him a drift, the boy can only look on as his father figure collapses to the ground exhausted and quickly collapses more red staining the snow from the wound in his head

Ursa belyy do not have how long he drifted on that ice eating fish he shot with a gun he still had but when he landed, he found new life less dangerous life

the white-haired man looks to his side to his two similarly aged companions and his face splits into a smirk though it feels in this context more like a broad reminiscent smile

I guess I'm next, the one in the middle says clearly Chinese he wears a black and white polo shirt adorned with anime pins, he stands nervously

The tale of Ursa 黑色的 (black)

Ursa black is born in a white room, and spends much of his infant Hood, in a white room, he doesn't know it for that time he was not old enough to know but when he does know things he grows bored with his white walls and white bed and white food

my parents were really protective, and really really intense germaphobes, maybe genetic I sort of am too

the only thing not white in Earth so Black's life is a stuffed panda doll, and the colorful images he glances at from the neighbor's TV after we find a way to look through the window in his room

eventually it just all became too much and I decided to just, see what the world had for me

the plan probably shouldn't have worked in hindsight but be it dumb luck be it destiny he finds a way out of the window in his room and luckily lands in a bamboo crate and a shipped off to America

honestly it's a miracle no one noticed me during the whole trip, I wasn't skip ahead of bed these two, Ursa 黑色的, points to his two fellow adult companions, a sort of like my brothers

the three boys coming to contact with a no older than 10 all escaping lives shut the damn didn't seem quite right, the only two of them said that of the reason they ran away, the white haired one didn't speak much back then, the three of them end up in the Foster system but soon left to the own devices when they age out of the system, soon they found themselves in the forest surrounding San Francisco, over time they build themselves a wooden home and over the years they make a name for themselves in the forests and in the city itself

we're having a good time but one day

the " brothers" are having a meal in town when they realize that the server didn't give them any hot sauce, but before any of them can alert their waiter a strange man comes to the table, he wears a pen with the silhouette of a pigeon on it and tells them about this wonderful hot sauce he and some others have been cooking up, they get a taste and it's good, addicting even

turns out that stuff was laced with drugs

which they soon learn when a local police officer informs them, that the guy who gave them that was part of a gang, and he wants them to infiltrate the place when wires so the authorities can bust the place, think same good for a while the head of the gang is jovial and quite generous with his recipe when they easily convince him that they're also interested in Lacing condiments with drugs

then my wire fell out

the room full of gang members are all silent at the site before them, the leader of the Gang glances over to two of his earliest members to grab Ursa black and drag them off into another room, the strap him to a table clear of any ingredients in there drugged hot sauce recipe, one of the Burly men slips down his pants * cut*, Ursa black is back in the meeting room shaking like a leaf feeling disgusting, the leader is about to signal again for them to grab the white haired man but the oldest "brother" challenge is the boss to a contest, if he can handle a whole bottle of the gang's hot sauce he and his brothers get to go free

luckily he had a stomach of Steel and the cops had enough information to bust to the place

outside of the hot sauce Warehouse the three brothers are wrapped in towels grateful to be alive

guess it's my turn, says Ursa Brown a Brown skinned and haired man with a prominent party belly

the tale of Ursa Brown

Esther Brown doesn't know his parents he only knows the man who raises him and the people he co-stars with as his only family

so you may not know this but I was a child star, it wasn't a very good show it was called family troubles

the novelty of a black kid on television had came and passed and soon the directors decide to a place in with a spunky white kid, kicked out of the only family he knows he goes on his own and finds himself to his true family, some years passed not enough for it to be modern day but enough for it to be the one time they're actually adopted from the system

he seemed nice enough

the man was eccentric, rich and bored, the man's Mansion was like a gilded Playhouse for the children but when night came they were sequestered to a still very well kept together Shaq behind the house, where they met their other Foster father

considering what his brother did to me maybe he was sent that nice

the man who lives in the shed is a gorilla, muscular and clearly mentally unwell he has the mental faculties of a child but as Ursa Brown quickly discovers the sex drive of an adult, so he can only stand it for one night and the brothers quickly devise a plan to get away

maybe it was dumb luck maybe the universe just giving us a solid but it worked

soon the boys are over the wall of the mansion running back into the metaphorical Wild, the years pass and now it's modern day the boys turned men have staked their place in the woods and have been living a great life with City friends and Forest Friends

but the piece couldn't last, apparently some people had some complaints about us

a man busts into the City Hall introducing himself as a CIA agent who is very concerned that two undocumented immigrants have even been here for long enough to them be adults, the Brothers not wanting to be separated go on a trip to Canada, they succeed to the Border but they forgot one thing, passports

you know the truck he put us in didn't look like anything the CIA would own

and the place he brings them too does it look like anything either, it isn't the expected Airport in its place is something that looks like it's suited to holding animals than people

no I think about it... I don't think he was CIA to actually

the man's graying hair is plastered to his skin by sweat from the vigorous pounding he's giving us a brown who had recently been recently tranquilized with a dose he doesn't think is quite right for a person but would be quite right for he doesn't quite know, a an American brown bear, he keeps thinking of brown bears and tranquilizer doses to keep his mind from the defilement being done upon him

when it was done and I was less groggy me and the rest of the prisoners to start up a plan

the plan's easy enough some of the more Burly ones knock over some of the guards and take the guns, and soon everyone's out and the brothers are back in San Francisco getting some legal papers and a party

all right it's your time champ, Ursa Brown nudges the young Korean girl standing next to him who before she can say anything gets a ping on her phone

oh man, oh God I didn't even know that was today, the girl says nervously as she looks surprised at her phone, so I guess I have this meet up with my chemistry Club and I completely forgot it was today, I'll be back later to tell my story, God I hope I'm not late, the girl says as she runs off stage

Chapter 39: Interlude: whatever happened to Patient J

Chapter Text

The basement was dark, and Maze like

the Clown navigates through the halls like he's done so many other times, he knows like all the others he'll be found and taken back to his cold cell, but still he goes hoping that the time it takes for him to navigate this maze it's not enough for his Jailer to be back from work

soon he's at the stairs leading to his salvation, he only gets halfway up when hands wrap around his ankles and pull them back down the stairs

the clown kicks wildly for freedom and soon he's out of the grasp of who he realizes to be the warden of the Asylum he used to dwell in, to his house the man lays prone on the ground his legs clearly had been amputated

the horror only increases when the man barks like a raving dog and begins to Scrabble on his intact arms towards the Clown

" oh pudding, what did I tell you about trying to leave" the voice of his Captor sends both the clown's and the doggified doctor's spinning to look at him, his silhouette stands large in the doorway his Cheshire Cat smile seems to Glow In the Shadows

he descends the steps sending the Clown scrambling back, he stops near the doctor giving the man's bald head a dog like Pat," good boy Hugo, you deserve a treat for being such a good guard dog" the capture praises pulling a dog biscuit out of his pants pocket and let's the doctor eat it right out of his hand

" but you, pudding have been a very bad cat!" the Captor says disappointment in his tone as he turns stopping the clown in his tracks and holding him there like a snake paralyzing its prey with its eyes

" I've tried to let you be a good kitty on your own, but this is the fourth time and it shall be the last time you disobey my orders"

and with that the clowns Captor grabs him by the Scruff of the neck and pulls him off into the dark

...

jervis doesn't know why he's doing this, maybe it's the satisfaction of breaking someone who's hurt his friends, Maybe it's for the money

but no matter the reason here he stands wetting the eyes of the man once known as patient J as he sits transfixed by the Visual and auditory domination of one Michael Afton specially tailored pet training video: kitty cat Edition

soon the video Fizzles out with an old movie reel pop, and Jarvis pulls the eye openers for man's eyelids

" how do you feel pudding" Jarvis's with Mark joviality

pudding just meows

Chapter 40: The story about the living Relic

Chapter Text

The man who sits in the middle of the room is happy to be with friends but clearly has gone through many things, he looks about in his early '70s, his hair had been haphazardly dyed blue and his skin though still it's usual black seems to be stained with a yellowish tint

he may be with friends but as much as he tries he cannot feel comforted Enough by them, his mind Trails back to the dream he once had and how such a pure dream could have led him to this point of humiliation and defilement

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment The Relic in his 20s still with the friends that surrounded him in the present, they have an idea for a show, it's a children's puppet show, they first go to the popular broadcasting agencies, they get denied, luckily the first immediate they go to except and the show begins airing on a crisp summer day to children around the country

he tries again to focus on anything but his unwanted trip down memory lane, he looks to his closest friend a chubby man of the same skin tone as him but I'm blemished by the horror he has went through, the man's hair is it's natural black, and he seems to be telling him a joke but his mind is unable to focus on the noise of his companions speaking no matter how much he wants to

the Relic played the main character, a yellow puppet with blue hair, the rest of his friends play different characters, his closest was a full body suit of a funny looking blue beagle, though it wasn't very accurate to how a beagle actually looked but the children loved it, the most important character with the main characters on house which didn't really talk but made close enough house noises to communicate, the guy who played that was the relics roommate who not being a close member of his friend group did jump at the opportunity to be a part of the show, but he always looked at the Relic with jealous eyes though only noticed it once

he mentally chastises himself and not seeing the signs, he thought after all these years the jealousy might have fizzled out, clearly it hadn't it only got stronger, he looks at three of his friends this time, the one with graying red hair is looking through letters the monster that did this to him sent them all, he tries as best as he can to keep it between him and his partner a man with a long neck and a dower face, the blonde woman between them catches glimpses and tries the best she can to hold back tears, she frantically rubs out her hair winsing a little whenever her finger catches on a knot and tugs a bit too hard

eventually the ratings go down then the show gets canceled, the disappointed but they move on with their lives and so the years go by, The Relic and his roommate eventually move out and the Relic gets his own house, he Chuckles a little when he has the instinct to make it look like the one from the show, one day he gets a letter in the mail apparently records of the show were mishandled and the show had become lost media, but a bright-eyed group of fans had gathered together to try and restore the shows Legacy as much as they could, he can sense these people had a dream like he had he calls up his friends and they set off to make a reboot

the young bright-eyed fans were doing the best they could he thinks to himself, but fans coming all shades and sizes, some have different ideas to show their appreciation for the show they like, he looks over to two more of his friends the final two, the caramel skinned tall woman fiddles worldly at her sweater, clearly Horrors that could happen to her like they happened to him spin around her head like birds, the sun kissed blonde next to her Pat's a hand comfortingly and mouths reassuring words that the relics spiraling mind can't understand, he really wants to hear those words, but his mine just won't let him

working on both uncovering mismanaged media and making blueprints for a reboot is hard work, but as the old show taught children around the world work with friends makes work a fun thing, every success was a success with friends, and every failure was was made less painful by The Hope of everyone who loved and worked on the show, but there was just a little problem, some people who love the show love getting ways of worked entirely healthy, that was clearly Illustrated when they found the odd stories and art on the internet, it was odd to read about and see such anatomically described and Illustrated genitalia on puppet bodies, but it was easy to laugh off

eventually the work of rediscovering old episodes and tapes was finally done and the work of the reboot was one step away from completion, so they decided to have a press conference about it, many fans came happy to see that their favorite show was finally getting so much needed representation in the modern day, heck even the relics roommate came by, he seemed happy for everyone, though if anyone had bothered to look a bit closer at his Smiles they seemed a bit forced no they were too busy being genuinely happy, the roommate ask The Relic for some drinks four times sake he said, the Relic agreed

he shouldn't have, he doesn't want to blame himself for what happened it's the roommates fault he knows that, but he can't help but think if he'd been more observant back then all of this wouldn't have happened

but it did happen, the drinks lead to the roommate having to drive the much more inebriated Relic back home, though when he woke up he wasn't in his bed, he wasn't a bed but it wasn't his, and he doesn't think it was a roommates either, the room he is in is clearly a Roomified basement, not very well done mind you but as much as the stringy haired young woman can that descends the stairs not much long after his Awakening can do apparently, the woman begins chattering about how she's a big fan of the show and shows him well drawn but disturbing photos of the puppet he played, the horrible man face on these Twisted illustrations mainly making him want to puke but that may be the horrible Unwashed smell of the woman showing him these pictures, then almost like a light switch the woman begins yelling at him that he isn't the right color

maybe I could have reasoned with her, he thinks to himself but maybe not she was most likely too far gone

when she is satisfied with the sloppy hair dying she does on him she drags him to a bathroom the water in it is tinged with yellow dye and the moment he's plopped in it burns on his flesh, he thinks maybe it's bleach, she climbs in with him, she's naked, he's thankful he got that vasectomy, when it's said and done he shivers in the woman's living room, she leaves to do something out in the world and he takes the opportunity to call the police

and now he is, he's finally able to hear his friends again he's thankful for that, he looks over near one of the walls is the head of the reboot project, she seems sad, looks like she thinks it isn't worth it's anymore if people like that want to do this to her childhood inspirations, a tiny bit of him agrees with her that it isn't worth it, but he can't let it not be worth it if he does his roommate wins, and he can't let this break him, he's Wally darling damn it, and he has friends

and he knows friendship conquers all, he gets up from the couch and walks over to her and lets her know that it is worth it not with words but with a hug

Chapter 41: (Side Story) A little trip

Summary:

Sam and Michael go on a little trip

Chapter Text

"Sam, have you ever wondered what happened to my father"

Sam looks up from his bowl of bean soup, and raises and eyebrow

" I heard on the news you went to hiding after you bought evidence to the authorities"

" well yes that's true, but have you ever wondered where he's hiding"

" I assume that he fled the country to somewhere like Mexico or something"

"what if I told you I know where he is, and that he's still in the city limits"

Sam opens his mouth to respond but Michael begins speaking as he throws his car keys in one finger

" I know that looks Sam, you don't believe me, that's why I'm going to drive you to where I found him"

,,,

the car ride is a quiet affair, Sam knows he can trust Michael, but a little bit of him is bracing for this trip to end with him in a ditch in the woods, maybe it's cuz he knows what Michael is capable of, yeah the people he's murdered before deserved it, (child sniffing lunatics), he thinks to himself, but so many what ifs multiply in his head like rabbits do, but they all share one similarity in their worry

(what if he thinks I'm going to tell the cops about his "trophy" basement)

his train of thought isn't too update by the car stopping in a clearing, head of them he sees a burnt out cabin, surrounding the cabin is a bearing field. Clearly many people had planted a lot of plants and not soon after they sprouted someone had torch them all

Sam's head snaps when Michael casually says, " it's a shame they were beautiful flowers, pity they were given to such an undeserving man"

Michael flashes him one of his more bearable to look at Cheshire grins, though his lips seemed to stretch more than a person should as long as his two perfect teeth aren't showing Sam has enough courage to ask the question

" did you?" but before he can accuse Michael of anything, he opens his door and walks around the car to open Sam's

" take a look for yourself"

when he gets the closer look Sam notices that the house is surrounded by long faded lawn ornaments but clearly meant to be yellow rabbits in many different states of action, he hesitates for a moment to open the door and gaze upon the damage inside but he does

the damage had clearly reached the inside, though he can't tell what's from the fire and what's for years of it being home to someone who was too dead to keep it in shape, though he thinks it's the second option when he spots the pest ravaged corpse of William Afton, his face is by some sick Miracle intact and Frozen in strangled horror, he's tied to the chair he sits in, and stabbed into his chest is a knife rusted with age but Sam can deduce it was most likely the night for used for his taking of innocent life, Sam has the instinctual knowledge that the knife was placed post-mortem

Sam can feel Michael's eyes born to his back, glancing behind he internally sighs that Michael isn't brandishing any weapons

" I didn't bring you here to kill you, if that's what you think this trip was for" Michael says and flashes one of his gut-wrenching smiles, saying feels like he's about to puke be it from the charred body smell beginning to reach his nostrils, or how Michael's mouth seems to itch to stretch like that of a boa constrictor and swallow him up right there

" do you really trust me not to tell anyone" Sam says looking into the face of a man who could kill his own father

" because I know you Sam, you're proud of the work I do, if you have the stomach for blood and guts, I have no doubt you be the one gutting child molesters"

" maybe I can learn to have the stomach for it" Sam says

Michael Smiles like a real person and Sam can't help but think he hasn't seen him smile like that since Michael was in high school and he went to his school play at the behest of his father

...

When the back of Michael's place, Sam looks at the Menagerie of torture implements Michael had spread across the dining room table as a little teaser to what Justice he'll learn to be able to serve under the younger man's tutelage

younger man, because Michael is the younger between them. God... He's so much older than Michael but... Michael knows a lot more things than he does

Sam Chuck was to himself

and picks up a scalpel

their father's old college friend pulls up to their house one day, the man's blonde and has the air of a douchebag, he looks at the girls a bit too lustily than a grown man should, not that any of them notice their father too blinded by Nostalgia and they too young to know that they shouldn't be looked at that way

between Subs everything nice repeats the word bad man

before the friend leaves he takes a photo of the girls and suggests they take a drive in his car sometime, they do have a bit of a bad feeling when he waits to drive off a bit longer than they think someone should, but they brush it off with seat belt trouble

we were just going to leave it in the past but, sugar begins

a month after the incident, Well they're doing their cookie rounds, and obese balding brown-haired man comes up to them, his eyes shine with lust and if it was an anime he probably have nose bleed, all sweet girls hold tight to the pepper spray in their pockets, when he make the move to grab one of them sugar is the first to spray him which sends him tumbling to the concrete, but before spice can an act her intended violence upon the creep, everything nice runs up to him and knees him in the groin which tumbles him back from his sitting position, and doesn't stop until the cops sugar called are on the scene

everything nice squeezes her octopus doll a bit harder openly weeping into its purple fur

Chapter 43: A story about Ursa Moon

Chapter Text

The little Korean girl from the last time the Ursas were on stage stands again with her friends,

I'm really sorry it took me so long, but now I'm here, she takes a deep calming before opening your mouth again, I'm going to be going by Ursa dal, that's Korean for Moon if you didn't know

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment moon is born to Two Loving parents, from an early age even she knows she's smarter than a lot of kids her age, her parents praise her but never push her to go higher than she's comfortable with

I was so good I even got to skip all the way to college

the letter they get in the mail isn't exactly a college acceptance form, it does involve her going to the local College building but it's only a taste of the college life

well it's more like dipping my toe into the really shallow end of the college pool, but still I was like really proud of myself

and she does good even in college level classes, except for one class, chemistry, the teacher there is a Charming older man who seems nice enough, though he takes on a slightly more patronizing tone when referring to Moon when she raises her hand to answer questions, though moon's too blinded by all the flying colors to see the red flags, it's doing her first halfway semester final that she gets a grade she knows should have been higher

I did that concoction nearly perfectly, it only fizzled just a little bit and I got control of it like super fast

she confronts the professor and calmly asks for a redo, the old man looks at her with all the hate of a thousand angry klansman in his eyes, and says a simple no

I went to complain to the only people I could think of at that moment, she gestures behind her to the rest of the Ursas

her ranting and raving give the boys an idea, a terrible idea in hindsight, but it felt good at the moment, later after a not so well-planned but through some twist of fate successful kidnapping, the professor is tied to a chair in the kitchen of the boys' house

in hindsided I probably shouldn't have told them, but I was young and angry, Ursa dal says like someone a lot older would have when reminiscing, very much not noticing the audience holding back laughter

when she stumbles upon this site, her first instinct is not to untie the professor put to ask him for a redo again, the professor's eyes burn for me a second with Clan hatred, but he quickly gets an idea and he says yes to the we do, but it must be held right here right now

so I set to work

she does such, grabs the nearest mixable but non-toxic chemicals she can find in the pantry, and sets to making a rudimentary concoction, as she works the boys keep a close eye on the professor who begins psychologically tormenting them, until one of them breaks and rips off the duct tape keeping him bound to the chair just as awesome moon is walking back in with her finished breakthrough, she nearly drops it in her panic when she sees the Unbound professor, but he soothes her with congratulations at her success, she's too blinded by the praise to notice that it doesn't really sound very sincere

he told me we had to go back to his office to get the grade changed, and I riding the high of my Triumph followed like a rabbit to the slaughter

the veil of niceness the professor wears is dropped much like his pants are the moment they walk into his office, she had left her concoction back at the boys' house, so no chemical attack than run plan for her, she screams until the professor's hand muffles her voice and she kicks until his legs pin hers, the man Whispers horrible names into her ear, some racial stuff that starts with c and k, which her panicking mind notes is a word for a race which she is not, and a non-racial starts with s which he scream moans into her ear as he finally releases his horrible old man spunk into her pinned body

When it was all said and done he didn't even change the grade

She cries to her parents, who scream to the police, who do nothing, she finds other classmates also hurt by the professor, maybe not a seriously as she was but it's good to find some solidarity, they rarely and find enough evidence to get him out of the school and into a cell, her parents decide it's for her best if she gets out of the college pool and back to a grade more suiting for her age

I really am going to miss my college friends, but we all live in the same city and have each other's phone numbers, and I do fly through all my homework like super fast so I have a lot of free time

Chapter 44: The tales of the fairy tale girls

Chapter Text

Three girls stand on stage one young adult and two children, two brunettes and a blonde, the young brunette is wearing a red hoodie, the young blonde has her hair cut short, the young adult brunette has her hair up in braids

the two children's trauma is clearly fresh telling from their tight-lipped expressions, the young adult brunette looks at them and pity and begins to speak

the tale of the Ruby witch hunter

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment Ruby in her early teens living on a farm with her and an uncle, she lived with them since she was four, she doesn't remember a lot about her birth parents but her aunt and uncle say they were good people so that has to be true, it is admittedly boring on the farm but there were so many things that she loves despite the monotonous work, most of all being her recently acquired Terrier Puppy

his name is Toto, he's my best friend

Toto is a very well trained and well behaved dog, but instincts always go through when one day the little doggy bites the cat of the richest woman in town, and no matter how much she pleads for her doggy's life there's no changing the hollowed woman's mind, that dog is dying next week, and to make sure that this hard fate is sealed the hard woman takes the dog and drives off on her bike

I cried and cried all the rest of the day, and I formed a plan

the next night when she knows for sure her aunt and uncle are fast asleep she pulls the Rope she stole from the barn and and hid in her room from under her bed, carefully she slips down the side of the house and finds the spare car keys under the decorative rock near the garage, she gets into the driver's seat turns on the engine and sets off

my uncle had been giving me driving lessons, and I had a map of the whole town and a destination

she doesn't know how close she gets to the woman's house before her natural instinct for sleep takes her, before she finally slips to unconsciousness she sees a form raise its hands in brace for impact, and then nothing

when I woke up I was still in the car, my head hurt really bad

her head pounds as she surveys the damage, she's still barefoot, and the ground she stands on hurts her feet, the woman pinned between tree and car soften the blow the vehicle would have taken, her pounding and panicking mind's first instinct is to find something to lessen the pain on her feet, so she grabs the deceased woman shoes and slips them on, the false rubies on them shine like real ones in the dawning daylight

unfortunately the car was out of gas and someone stole my map, so on foot I went, I probably should have tracked back home, but the only priority in my dizzy mind was getting my dog back

eventually hunger overtakes the determination, and to her luck she finds herself standing in front of a candy store, the woman owning the place is a nice old woman about the same age as the lady who stole her dog no a lot more pretty than she was, some fresh sustenance in her stomach clears her mind enough to think about how the hell she's going to get back home, she thinks it's the best idea to get some gas in the truck, she inquires if the candy Clerk knows if there's a gas station anywhere nearby, the nice lady tells her that there was, so off she goes to find her dog and some gas for the truck, and a baby she hopes on the way she'll find her map again

he didn't take me too long of a walk to find the car shop the nice lady talked about

the mechanics in there with jovial fellows, this simplifies with her plight and suggests they accompany her for protection, the one was patches on his uniform brings a gun with him, the one was a slight limp who's covered with grease stains check to see if there are any damages to the truck, and the one was hair like a lion nearly pukes when he sees the woman's corpse still pin to the tree. Luckily the car though a little dented is in working order and they're off to find a map and a dog

we found where my map was at first

they stop at a diner to get some grub, the bushel stashed man at the counter perks up when he overhears Ruby complain about her missing map and informs that his boss in fact has the map, after some explaining to the boss Ruby has her match back in the back on the road again

it was dark when we got to her house, we came up with a much better plan than the one I had in the beginning

using the cover of Darkness the sneak pass the guards at the gates, Ruby pics the horrible woman's front door, and soon finds the room her dog has been hidden in thankfully safe and sound, unluckily the dogs excited yapping wakes the woman, she makes a break for it to the door but her wrist is seized by the horrible woman and she's dragged off, she thrown onto a couch and a woman braids her for breaking and entering and becomes more Furious when she notices what shoes she's wearing

apparently the lady I killed was her sister

the woman screams and screams at the girl for her crime, the girl's dog is in a cage and Barks as furiously as he can, the dog only Stops his angered yapping when the horrible woman's hand impacts with Ruby's cheek and once again she's being dragged off to somewhere else, soon she's in the woman's bathroom and being ordered to strip and clean the filth she's accrued from her journey, when she's done bathing she puts her clothes back on and pockets a bottle of makeup remover for a plan

I hope I wasn't going to have to use it, that she would just hit me some more and let me go on my way, but she didn't

the moment she walks out of the bathroom the woman grabs her and places her face first on the bed, the softness of it does not dampen the horrible sinking dread Ruby feels, The Dread deepens when she feels the woman slipped down her panties and something wouldn't slips painfully into her Young entrance, she thinks it might be a broom handle but she dare not look behind her to see less she be hit again or worse

I had the feeling she wasn't going to let me go even after that, I had the feeling this was a life or death thing, and I was determined to live

when the woman is done defiling her with the broom she goes somewhere else maybe to get something else to put in her maybe something to murder her with, she's not taking a chances she pulls out the bottle of makeup remover and walks carefully to the door and waits, when the draw Creeks open far enough for clean throw she throws and glass and stinging liquid cover the horrible woman's face, she reels back in pain and screams her horrid lungs out as the combination of chemical and glass burn and pierced her skin

I took my chance to run

she grabs a dog on the way out, but he stops at the gate by the guards, but luckily the pain stricken hard woman rushes angrily from her home striking blindly of the world around her, Ruby screams and cries and the guards know something ain't right, one of them pulls out his gun and shoots at their boss, one good Bullet to the knee sends her to the ground and Ruby is grabbed by one of her mechanic friends and rush to the truck, the mission is complete but will be feels more terrible than she's ever failed in her life

on the way back we stopped at the diner again to call up my aunt and uncle

both sides of the call cry the hearts out, she's too traumatized to internalize any of the words for Aunt is telling her, she thinks she understands the words twister and going to move but her mind is still flashing back to her assault too much to understand what any of those words mean at the time, but she finds out when the truck pulls up to the house, and all that stands there is a twister ravaged mess, her aunt and uncle's livelihoods gone in a windy tragedy, she wants to think it's a dream but it's not it's cold broken reality

I thought my life would never have any light in it anymore, I was far away from that horrible woman and I have my dog back, but I thought to myself at the time at what cost

she thinks her life is never going to be good again, that is until she's drinking coffee at a shop when she sees the woman that will soon be the love of her life, the woman is similarly morose and traumatized that she is, they share their tails with each other and they plan for another meeting, the meeting turns to dates and the dates turn into a relationship, and she finally has some good in her life again

The younger brunette walks carefully up to the mic which is lowered by the older brunette and begins to speak

the tale of the Crimson Wolf's Bane

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment crimson weeks younger then she is now visiting her grandmother in her nice quaint home in the midst of the concrete Jungle she lives in, the older woman's at home caretaker is a man with wolf like eyes who looks at crimson a bit longer than someone should

my mother told me not to talk to strangers when I go to visit Grandma, and he was a stranger but my grandma trusted him so I thought I could too

the mother gets a call from the caretaker saying that the grandmother needs a refill on a heart medication but he can't get it because he's too busy keeping her stable because she's currently having trouble breathing, the pain wheezing she hears faintly in the background convinces the mother that he's telling the truth, and she sends her daughter and husband off to get the meds, the fall that we sure is crimson that Granny's going to be okay and Crimson holds tight to his muscled arm all the way to the pharmacy

my dad's really big and strong, he got all his muscles for cutting down trees

soon they're at the house, Crimson is out the door she's holding a basket containing the heart meds and some bottles of water for her grandmother, the knock she makes to the door gets her the voice of the caretaker calling her in, though when she enters neither her grandmother nor the caretaker or anywhere inside, the voice of the caretaker calls her upstairs to her grandmother's room, there's a form in the bed she can only assume it's her grandmother, her stomach sinks when she knows it doesn't seem to be breathing, she walks hoping to God grandma is okay

Grandma was in the bed, and it was just as I feared

her grandmother lies dead on the mattress, I look up fear struck eternally on her cooling corpse, Crimson can only take in that there seems to be strangle marks on her neck when something grabs her from behind, the caretakers hand is pressed around her neck and he's Whispering for to stay quiet and gives a warning squeeze, her grandmother's corpse is pushed unceremoniously from her deathbed and Crimson is in its place soon after, the caretakers hand still rests like a threat upon her neck, the man salivates like a Hungry Wolf and Whispers horrible secrets to her, all the things he's been dreaming of doing to her, cut the caretaker sleeps noisily beside her in her grandmother's bed, spent from the horrible assault he's committed he does not wake when she slips carefully from his grasp

I told my daddy right away, he knew what to do, he even let me help tie him up

The caretaker's stomach sinks like it's filled with rocks when he wakes up with a pounding headache, he's not in the same place he was before, he's chained to a tree and as his eyes adjust to to the afternoon light he sees to figures brandishing axes in front of him

I'm really sad I'm never going to be able to see grandma again, but I know she's smiling at me from heaven, she's super proud of me for being Brave

the young blonde is the next to speak

the tale of the golden bear trap

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment golden I've been living on the streets all her life, her hair was much longer than it is now and a lot more nodded, the only thing she has is her mother and her favorite teddy bear, sometimes a neighborhood boy plays with her but not for too long, the boys father yells at him angrily to stop playing with such a dirty girl

it wasn't the best life a girl should have but it was mine

doing play time between Golden and the boy the father does not yell but Yanks the boy away, the boys still holds the girls doll and the dad does not budge from his dragging no matter how much his son screams that he needs to give something back

he didn't come back the next day or the next

she sets off on the third day without a playdate with the boy, she finds a house that she recognizes from one of the boys drawings, she thinks it might be his, and her suspicions are confirmed when she glimpses the boy playing in his yard looking sadly at the accidentally stolen teddy bear, the two's eyes meet but before the boy can come over with the bear to give it to her where she stands on the other side of a fence, his father comes out and grabs him by the arm to drag him back in for dinner, the girl runs off when the Father's Eyes snap to her when she yells at him

I spent the rest of the day making a plan

the next night she's back at the house, she jumped the fence and was throwing pebbles at the boys bedroom window, the boy looks down at her and gets an idea, soon she's climbing up a rope of all sorts of fabrics, and soon the two friends are hugging in reunited Joy, but joy short-lived when they hear the loud steps of the boy's father coming to check on his son, the sun hides beneath the bed and the girl hides on top, the covers hide her frame and she tried to not hyperventilate too hard and she clutches her teddy bear close to her chest, the father asks how the boys doing neither child dares to say a thing which angles the father whose numbers in and pulls the sheets from the the cowling golden

he screams so loud I thought I was going to go deaf

he yells at the girl, his face angry with rage and his voice sounding more like a bears than any human voice, he kicks and punches the child and his son's bed, the Sun screams as loud as he can for his father to stop, but nothing can Pierce the rage clouding the man's very soul, the Furious man rips at the girls filthy blonde hair and pins her to the bed

lucky all that yelling woke up the mom

the boy's mother screeches like a banshee at her husband pinning a little girl to their son's bed, cut the boy and his mother in a police station Comfort the balling girl, rubbing soothing ointment into the patches of hair the father pulled out in his rage

apparently he's been abusing them, I guess I was the final straw, Life's a lot more better now I finally have a house and me and my mom don't have to worry about food anymore, and me and my friend get to play anytime we want

the girl lives with her friend and his mom in their house with her mom, and life is better for all of them

Chapter Text

The woman that stands on stage is on her first and has her blonde hair up in a ponytail, she's wearing a pizza place t-shirt and just looking for reassurance from the bunny who's sitting close to the stage

Take a deep breath she begins her tail

instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the witness lives was a single father living a good childhood, she believes at the time that her father though eccentric with his liking towards rabbit themed items, is a good man, her father sometimes goes out and returns with a toy for her, her favorite being a spaceship that makes all sorts of fun sounds

I wasn't the only one of his children

The witness is a twin, her other half is a similarly blonde boy with mischievous eyes and a lot of friends, for to be more exact but that number slowly begins to decrease, and soon all he has left is his golden teddy bear, one night their father packs them into the car and says they're going somewhere special

We pulled into a camping site and he told me to stay and took my brother somewhere, obviously I didn't stay

The witness slips from the car and follows a strange noise that sounds like the voices of her father and another man's laughing, what she finds will be shocked into a memory for the rest of her life, on the ground is her brother pin down by a blonde with a familiar face she'll be working for it in the future, her brother is limp on the ground red seeping from a wound in his neck as his father records his post-mortem to file and still bloody knife used for the ACT held limply play in the other hand, suddenly her father's head snapped to look at her and he holds up a finger in a shushing motion, smile still plastered to his face

My first instinct was to run back to the car

The drive back is silent, her father shows No Remorse for what he has done and puts her into bed at the moment they get back home, she never speaks a word of what she saw for many years soon she goes off to college and try to say as far as she can from her father

I had to get a job to keep paying my tuition, so I became a pizza Mall security guard

The position pays surprisingly well, and she even finds love it in her new position, her new boss's face reminds her of the man who defiled her brothers corpse but other than that resemblance

But I'm not just here because of what I saw, the blonde man and my father found their ways back into my life

She's looking over the security tapes a week after her boss's Sons of salt, she bites back the urge to delete the footage when she sees the blonde man, she brings it to her boss and he makes a plan

I was going to be used as bait

She unblocks her dad from her texting app and Toes him to meet up with her, with his friend, he just sends the most menacing smiley face emoji he's ever gotten in her life

Luckily they took the bait and both the blonde band and her father are parked in his car in the parking lot, the witness Pockets her gun and exits her boss's car, the boss stays hidden in the back," I'm here Dad, your little girl's back", her father really Smiles at her, and so does the blonde a nearly jaw splitting smile that she's glimped from her boss every once in awhile

He hugged me

She pulls her gun from her pocket pressing it to his tummy but before she can pull the trigger and blow his stomach out of his back, something pierces into hers, her father then pulls the knife that was in his stomach and pushes her to the ground, stepping aside he lets his blonde friend step up most likely to mount her like he did her brother

He only got the chance to get his pants off

A shot rings out and the blonde man's penis is splattered all over the ground, he falls in pain, and the Witnesses boss keeps her father from trying anything with a gun aimed to his head

But then another shot rings out and the father Falls clutching his side as it bleeds from The Gunshot fired by a new player in this game

Apparently my boss called someone else that was negatively affected by my father

The brunette was tired eyes stands over the dying father, was a definitive snort he spits in the man's face and shoots him in the head, " that's what you get you monster", the brunette aims his gun at the blonde man who is still cradling the bleeding wound that used to have his dick, but the witnesses boss gestures for him not to," that one's mine, I helped you take care of your shared problem, but I wish to take care of mine alone" he grabs the blonde by his hair drags him to the car and drives off leaving the other two to harsh out what's the hell is going on

The witness is recovering from her stab wound in the hospital, visited spontaneously through who recovery by her girlfriend, her boss, her boss's son, some of her coworkers, and her new friend the tire dyed brunette and his artistic sister, who draws her get well photos every time they come by

I guess another plus besides knowing I'll never see my dad again is that a lot of the kids at my job think my scar is pretty cool, though I still wonder whatever happened to that blonde guy

...

Somewhere far from the Mansion under the house of the show Runners duplicate, lies the blonde man, it's basically the only thing he can do seeing as all of his limbs are gone, a sound sends the blonde man's head spinning to The Bard entrance of his prison, there stands the showrunner a spoon held like a knife in one hand

" good news on Uncle Gregor, after I take your eyes I only have to snip out your tongue before you're ready for death, and I promise that the taxidermy I'll make from your body will be well taking care of " Gregor just looks at the showrunner his eyes foggy with resignation of his death

" oh don't look so dejected, here I'll show you one last thing before you lose your sight forever" he pulls out a photo of his father moments before he lit the cabin he was staying in a blaze, Gregor's eyes shine with fear and shine even brighter when the spoon inches to his left eye

Chapter 48: A tale about the parasitized Livewire

Chapter Text

Woman that stands on stage has bright blue stripes in her black pixie cut hair, her lightning bolt t-shirt's sleeves are rolled up showing the zig zag scars creeping up her arm from her hand

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the live wire with her hair completely black and her arms unmarked, she sits at a recording desk Broadcasting about a recent data leak of lexcorp assets

You probably know my voice from my absolutely killer true crime podcast, I mostly do stuff about cyber crime, I know it's pretty niche but people like it

She hears about a journalist convention, and though technically she doesn't fit the criteria of being able to get in she believes herself to be worthy of standing amongst her fellow journalists

I had to do a little sneaking in but honestly what journalist has on

It was honestly pretty easy to get in it was an outside event, and she walks around without being questioned long enough to get some photos with some other journalists, she just snapped a selfie of herself and the venomous true when she bumps into a muscular figure a couple steps away

" oh sorry ma'am, hey wait why don't you got an ID" the muscular man's Southern drawl and lopsided spectacles convinces the Live Wire that he'll be pretty easy to trick," oh yeah sorry I left it in my car besides I'm just here to get some pictures", she lies and the muscular Country Boy games convinced by the accepting hum he lets out

But then that stupid storm started Brewing

And the live wire is a bit tipsy from the flask she also snuck it in with herself, she jumps when the Burley country bumpkin from before puts a hand on her arm to inform her that people are leaving early due to the sudden change in weather, " it's not even that bad now get off me" and with that shove combined with her Tipsy uneven feet she places her hand on a one of the metal support poles for the Q&A tent just as a strike of lightning is drawn to it, and then blinding pain shoots up her arms

Luckily the nerve damage wasn't to debilitating and only took like a month of physical therapy to stop the more intense shaking

Her time in the hospital is not a lonely affair next to her recovery bed is a man, his chart says he has a pretty bad case of tapeworms, they spark up good conversation and exchange phone numbers planning to meet a month later

He seem nice at first, and then he kissed me on the cheek

The wet mark his lips left on her cheek felt like it was dug into by the jaws of a lamprey, she tells him matter of factly that even if she was attracted to dudes she just wanted but they have to stay friendly, he gives an understanding smile but something about the way he clenches his hand on his apartment's door knob sent her guts twisting like electric eels, and she decides to bail on the next week Meetup, and the next one, and the next one

I was considering blocking him but decided to just let my absence be the indicator that I didn't want to see him again

But apparently he doesn't give the message, and barges into her apartment during a broadcast, thinking quickly she merely minimizes the recording software she had up, the good-natured mask he was wearing is quickly dropped and soon he's attempting to pin the live wire to the ground who is screaming his name as loud as she can into the direction of her desk, the Live Wire sits at her recording desk again downloading her recorded assault to a flash drive

I gave that baby the cops and the guy was locked up not a day later, and I also got a girlfriend the day after

The fiery haired and caramel skin woman that lounges next to the Livewire on the couch Scrolls on her phone, presses a kiss into the Live Wire is cheap spreading a pleasant Heat through her body was each pressed of lips

What a brave little Pooch came to my rescue

The courageous coward cocks his father shotgun, he trembles like a leaf, but the thugs back away and as soon as he and Bunny are out of the apartment he dropped the gun like it's on fire, and nearly vomits due to how much hyperventilating he's doing, and actually does puke on the way to the train station in the family car

We barely recognize each other when we met up again, Kitty says

Bunny and kitty embrace, and In the Heat of the Moment the lips as well as their arms interlock, bunnies the first one to pull back, and it only takes them a couple considering breaths to get their mouths back on each other again

We get to be best friends, bunny pauses inching forward to interlock her hand with kitties

Old bosses, sickly sweet voice tunes through the receiver, Oh, the whips instincts tell her this proposition will lead to death or worse for her, but she’s the only person who will hire her

But only one more job, The whip says, After that, I’ll take the money you give me and I’ll move out of the country, And we never speak again

The little reprieve from impending death is short-lived
something catches their attention and, despite the circumstances, screaming at her to stay hidden, she drags herself from under the seat and barely gets off her knees when something plunged in her thigh, send her back there, The joint in her leg is not laced with anything, but it sure does hurt, And so does the Kick from her bosses shoe sending her falling onto her back

From the inside of the transfer vehicle, she barely hears the muffled conversation of the little girl and a brunette woman, And before she knows it, the drawers are open and she’s being let out and into life she thought she’d never have

But thanks to that little girl, and now I finally get to share what my daddy taught me to the world

I knew these two want my parents the moment I was old enough to understand what they were saying to each other and to strangers on the phone

"mombi, that brat made me eggs again, why do you keep buying those damn things " the man of the house Bellows to his wife whose face Twitches in a vein attempt to make any other expression than the one it's currently locked in," they're not for you senile old bastard, therefore the boy" the woman of the house responds pushing the plate of eggs which was sped upon by the still Furious husband, the Royal stomach twists at how they're being referred to as, some days they feel like being called a boy is all right but but others make them want to vomit the cigarette spit tainted eggs they force themselves to shovel down their gullet

I never did learn while they raised me as a boy, I suppose it wouldn't change how flip flop I was about how I wanted to be referred to as

They're bickering " parents" never take the frustrations out on each other, as much as it looks like they're all about to throw punches between each other sometimes, they always take it out on them, but they're only allowed enough bed rest for anything broken to not be unbearable to use before they're sent back to chores and house duties

They didn't only take out there relationship issues physically on me

The first time is the day they learned they have a lot more in common with their "mother" than their "father", the man's beard is so thick they fear it'll suffocate them, but the old man pushing them into the mattress with his strong hands doesn't last very much longer after he slips his cock into the hole between the legs, the old man pulls out and Lumbers off back to his and his wife's bedroom, leaving the Royal to shake and weep into their pillow

He left more than just beard fibers during the third time though

They believe the spout of nausea to be a sick blessing from the universe, but when their "Guardians" grow suspicious and lock them in the bathroom with an object they've seen in some of the magazines there " mother" reads the stomach sinks in horror at the doomed life growing in their stomach

" I thought you said you were sterile!" the woman of the house screeches at her husband, " that doesn't matter, if you were such a failure at your wifely duties this wouldn't be happening you plastic cow", and so it continues blaming each other and not themselves for even bringing a being capable of holding life and raising it like it couldn't into their home

Eventually they came up with an idea of what to do with me, but I couldn't let that happen, not to me, not to that little pumpkin growing in me either

The man of the house brings lunch for both of them, a final meal for one, and a tuna sandwich for the other, the royal takes the opportunity when the man is scrounging through the trunk of his car for his shotgun, one hand held out behind his back for his sandwich, without looking he takes a bite into the egg salad and absent-mindedly chews and swallows, he finds a shotgun orders the royal on there knees, aims the gun, and drops it as he begins to clot his own throat, trying to take in as much breath as his quickly swelling Airways can give him

I took my chance, it wasn't that good at driving nor that I know where I was going, but all I did know was that I didn't want to be anywhere near the two people my whole life had been shared with up to that point

Luckily they doesn't crash and eventually finds a little chicken farm not too far from the wood they was taken to die in, the woman who lives there resembles her feathered companions in both dress and mannerism, and by another Stroke of Luck the woman recognizes them and they learns a lot of things they thought they'd never learn

Apparently my " parents", snatched me up for my real ones for ransom, I was the mayor's kid, but due to a combination of having to pay for some damages caused by a hurricane and my " mother's" surgery addiction my father couldn't pay the ever increasing Ransom

The Royals father is a lady to see his child once again, and there presented around town in a lovely dress that makes their tummy twist a little but is muffled by the joy of being with loving parents again, but over the next months when the tummy twist feeling happens it only gets stronger, and when they finally confronts they're parents, something more than a confession of wanting to wear pants slips from them

I already told my parents about what that horrible man left in me, I wanted to keep it, and I did keep it

The little light that came from the tragedy came into the world with orange hair, the color the horrible man must have been before age made it gray, they hold their child and hope they aren't allergic to eggs

He isn't, I named him jack by the way, I love him to bits, though he's strictly prohibited from growing a beard
the end

Chapter 52: The story of the not so wise guy

Chapter Text

the man who stands on stage has eyes that gleam with something familiar to many in the audience, the little Rockstar sees his father in those eyes, but if he was more clean shaven he have resembled more the showrunners second younger brother if he had the chance to grow up then the man himself

Hello folks, I just flew from Vegas and boy are arms tired, the thick New York accent is not one they expect to come out of the man's lips, but he's too busy laughing at his own joke to realize no one else is laughing mostly because of the shock of the distance between appearance and voice

Spotlight a movie fragment the wise guy is in fact related to the showrunner, and much like the amount of children one of his oldest Brothers would bring into the world he is the second youngest of four, his two Elder siblings are twins complete copies out of each other except for hair, the one child of the family he's older than is not a crybaby like the show Runners youngest sibling, in fact he's almost as much as a prankster as the wise guy

You know somebody once said evil isn't born, it's created

The parents take their snack for trickery in stride, the harshest punishment they get for their tomfoolery is a couple moments in the corner after they accidentally broke one of Mother's vases when trying to set up a whoopee cushion on Father's favorite chair, their twin Elders on the other hand don't like being made fools of, which they are taught quite thoroughly the first time that try any funny business, the wise guy couldn't stand on his left leg for a whole week, and the youngest gained a fear of needles

Well Willie and Greg were beg to differ, if they weren't dead as door nails, but trust me folks those two were evil maybe even from birth, the looks of sympathy from those who know the evil those two did upon the world in their lives catches the Wise Guys eyes, don't worry folks you may not believe it but they weren't that evil

The relationship between the wise guy and his twin elders becomes a little bit better during his high school days they even introduced them to a friend of theirs, the man's clearly older than him maybe a senior or something, but he's thinking with his heart and more importantly his dick when he decides to meet up with the guy another time after their first meeting

I won't say what we had was love at first sight, I know it was lust now, but when I was a dumb teenager, he pauses to let out an embarrassed whistle, I couldn't tell the difference between the flooding in my heart and the flutter into my Johnson I'll tell you that much

The guy for the most part seems nice enough, he tells funny jokes, he's got a nice deep voice, everything about him just loves the wise guy the right way, yeah he starts to notice weird things especially the weird way the guy looks at his baby nephew, but one kiss from those lips that speak such wonderful words in such a wonderful voice blinds him with love once more

When he killed for the first time in front of me I was in too deep

He still remembers it so vividly, the black haired little girl struggles beneath the adult man pressing her down with his body weight, she's still clothed, by the way the knife her murderer wields dragged against her skin shows that this is an act of lust, her red blood that spills from a cut open stomach is no better than if it was gushing from a broken hymen

i, he pauses taking a deep breath, I helped hide the body

Remove from state to state for the next couple years , and each time the Wise Guys convinced that the last murder is the last for good, but it never is, and he can't take it so when that Florida apartment he asks for breakup,

" I can't do this anymore Henry" he said take a deep breath holding back the tears before continuing ," I can't live with this blood on my hands anymore " but before you can continue the gun that was used to kill another child in a line of many others is pressed to his stomach

It was the first time we ever had sex, yeah we jacked each other off before but nothing in each other, until then, I don't even think he enjoyed it, guess I was too old for him

They do break up that night, though with the Wise Guys sent packing from the apartment, he goes straight to the cops, and when his case goes to court his horrified to see the family lawyer on the side of his ex boyfriend

Do you guys really think Willie worked for all that money, nope all of dear old dads, it's good the family fortune is being put to good use nowadays, the wise guy gives a wink to his surviving and eldest nephew who gives one back they both smiled a signature family Cheshire

Needless to say he completely called off the Chargers, deciding to create his own restraining order by making distance, and so he goes to Vegas for the first time and it won't be the last

The city of gambling became like a second home to me, and I was good

But you can't stay good for long when you're gambling, eventually there's always someone better, he doesn't remember their face it doesn't really matter, only thing he knows was he was on the run again, so he decides to visit some family

" quite little place you got here nephew" he said at the time, and it was in fact a quaint joint at the time, it was the first of many more mature eating establishments under the Fazbear umbrella, it was basically a Pizza themed strip joint, it's also the place he meets the orange head light of his life, the man is very poorly doing some pole dancing in an admittedly very sexy said of yellow bear laundry

He wasn't actually a stripper, he was just filling in for one of the girls, but there was something about him that just seemed familiar, and apparently our lives are into mingled before

When the light of his life mentions a dead sister and shows him that picture of a little girl snuggled up next to a younger version of him, his first gut feeling is to run, go back to Vegas and let the Mobsters throw him in the river with the fishes, but he doesn't he tells the light of his life that he helped that girl's murder hide her body, he knows he deserves to punch in the face he's given, and that he deserve the rest of the flurry of punches the ginger would have given him if his nephew hadn't torn them apart

I want to blame him if he didn't want to see me again, but luckily my favorite and unfortunately only living nephew set us up on a little special get together

The light of his life looks in a mixture of horror and Glee at the bound and gagged murderer of his sister, though only the blindfold is needed the man's vocal cords will surgically torn from him only a week ago," to make sure that's so true voice doesn't sway you darling uncle" the show runner had explained to the wise guy when he inquired about the still visible scars upon the man's neck, they are both given ceremonial Daggers by the gaggle of Road figures, some the two recognize from the strip joint

He didn't have the chance to open up some old wounds on me, but I sure did him, the wise guy Chuckles as he mimes a stabbing motion, and now sportsy and I are living it large in Vegas, with a Little Help from family

Uncle and nephew share winks and grins

Chapter 53: Little breather: Little Star Home Run

Chapter Text

As the sun dipped low on the horizon, casting golden hues across the sky, Michael found himself making his way to the local baseball field. It was a routine he cherished – every Tuesday evening, he would leave work early to catch his son Gregory's Little League game.

Michael's heart swelled with pride as he thought about Gregory, his eyes flickering with anticipation for the game ahead. He parked his car in the familiar spot, the scent of freshly cut grass mingling with the chatter of excited spectators. With a quick glance at his watch, Michael knew he had arrived just in time.

The bleachers were already filling up with families and friends, all eagerly awaiting the start of the game. Michael spotted his wife, Sarah, waving to him from the stands. He smiled and made his way over to her, exchanging a quick kiss before taking his seat.

As the players took their positions on the field, Michael's eyes searched for Gregory among the sea of uniforms. He finally spotted him, standing tall and confident at second base. Gregory caught his father's gaze and flashed him a bright smile, his excitement palpable even from a distance.

The game began, and Michael found himself fully immersed in the action. He cheered loudly as Gregory's team took the field, his heart pounding with every pitch and every hit. Time seemed to slow down as he watched his son play with determination and skill, each moment etching itself into his memory.

As the innings passed, the game grew more intense. Both teams fought hard, each player giving their all on the field. Michael's heart swelled with pride as Gregory made a spectacular catch, his teammates cheering him on with enthusiasm.

In the final inning, with the score tied, Gregory stepped up to bat. Michael held his breath, his eyes fixed on his son as he gripped the bat tightly. With a determined swing, Gregory connected with the ball, sending it soaring through the air.

The crowd erupted into cheers as Gregory raced around the bases, his teammates cheering him on with fervor. Michael leaped to his feet, his heart pounding with excitement as he watched his son round third base and head for home. With a final burst of speed, Gregory slid into home plate, the dust kicking up around him as he crossed the final hurdle.

The umpire signaled safe, and the crowd erupted into cheers as Gregory's team celebrated their victory. Michael rushed onto the field, sweeping his son up into a tight embrace. Tears of joy filled his eyes as he held Gregory close, overwhelmed with pride and love.

As they made their way off the field, Michael couldn't help but feel grateful for moments like these – moments filled with love, laughter, and the simple joy of watching his son play the game he loved. And as they walked hand in hand towards the parking lot, Michael knew that no matter what the future held, the memories of this day would stay with him forever,

Chapter 54: The story about the mother and son Cryptid conservationists ( and the Cryptid hunting Yeti that only brought them closer)

Chapter Text

A mother and son stand on stage, the mother's hair is  spider web White, this hair tone is shared in some part by her son  but little black strands keep it from being completely White

I actually got here like my mom, but I dye it to make my self look cool, well cooler cuz I'm already super cool, the deer Boy says flipping his hair

The story of the deer boy

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the boy grows up with his white haired mother and his black skinned and black haired father, he has no human siblings but in their place is amazing cat with eyes like dinner plates, and the salamander  with mischievous eyes, he also has some other Animal Companions  but don't stay long, only long enough until the healed to go back into the wild

My family are, I think the word mom uses is nature  conservationists, basically we go around and help out injured animals, or sometimes we beat up mean folks who want to hurt endangered animals

He's never allowed to  do the impressive stuff his parents do, But they come back with injuries and epic stories of breaking Hunter's guns, or one time releasing an animal they had in a cage who proceeded to kick their ass itself,  it's probably not as cool as they describe it but the boy hopes it's even more cool

I used to be really mad they didn't let me on Kick Butt  missions, but now

It's when they want a trip to a snowy region of Canada close to the ocean separating it from Antarctica that he decides to go in a Kick Butt mission of his own, the chair was still strikes him even though he's bundled up, in the distance he hears the sound of a distressed animal and soon a hulking silhouette makes its way through the cold snowy fog

They were just trying to keep me safe from, he pauses taking a deep breath before continuing, Monsters

He recognizes the figure when he comes into more Focus, a cryptosuologist from TV that his parents say is just a con man,   he's without his signature mask and it's his voice that cues and the boy that this isn't some sort of hulking Canadian Sasquatch, the creature he's dragging is a juvenile moose   its legs had evidently been broken most likely that is a man currently dragging it to a fate most   heinous 

Specifically a terrible terrible monster

The boy rushes forward with a rock he picked up from the ground,  he tackles the yeti man  and does some good damage to one of his hands hopefully breaking more than one finger, but the man is an adult and though the boy maybe athletic he is still a child, and soon the boy is pinned under the man the cold snow seeping through his puffer jacket, luckily the man only has the opportunity to get both their parents down before another walk is thrown square into his head, he collapses and the boy  pushes him off pulling his pants up quickly hoping that he doesn't get frostbite on his buns, he's hyperventilating the cold air burning his lungs and in the distance he sees the silhouette of his parents running towards him, and then Darkness takes him

I woke up back in the  van, My folks were really angry at me, but they were more angry at that horrible man for trying to do something to me, mom was really really angry at him

He stays to his mother as if asking if it's okay for him to cry the woman not solemnly and tears stream down the boy's face as he huddles into his mother's arms like a baby crying into her shoulder at being brave and telling what happened to him

He's the lucky one, that horrible man got farther with me

The story of the dear woman

Instead of a spotlight movie fragment the woman mother of the boy in her younger years with a red-haired brother, her family are adventurous, they go all sorts of places, hot places, and cold places, today they're in a cold place, the Himalayan mountains

I didn't know that the time but that would be the last time I saw my parents

They're properly prepared for anything, but not everything, no mountain manual could warm them of avalanche assisted murder committed by a man who was able to Yeti more than a person, and as the snow fell the yeti man silhouette descended the mountain to Tower over the young woman, the memory of her assault  is choppy she blinks in and out of consciousness, the yeti man thrusts above her sadistically shining in his eyes

He told me why he did it,  the woman tries to hold back her tears as her son cries even harder into her shoulder,  but we weren't even looking for Yeti, we was just trying to have fun and climb a mountain, but he didn't care he was a greedy Monster who Wanted to make us suffer... me suffer for something we weren't even doing, an angry tear  rolls down her cheek 

When she wakes from the final unconsciousness she's being tended to by monks, they say they looked for her family but all they found were frostbitten hands, she weeps for days and sleeping chamber they give her, the flicker of hope they give her that her brother still lives soften the tears  but only a little bit

But it wouldn't be the last time I saw my brother

Flash forward to the snowy Canadian wilderness,   she's craggling her unconscious son in her arms tears flowing freely for my eyes as in the background her husband beats the life out of the man that ruined her life and try to ruin her sons, a caulking of a weapon sounds and both adults turned to see a red-headed man brandishing a Harpoon Gun, recognition flickers in his eyes when his meets the woman's who similarly flickers with recognition, he drops his weapon and says one word, "sis"

Later back in the van  the two reunited siblings 10 to the wounded  juvenile moose, when it's broken legs are tied up in casts and it's sleeping in the animal bed they made for it the two tell each other of the live life had since the separation, him of being found by the yeti man raised like his own son and roped into the horrible business he set his life to, of being forced to help mutilate animals into horrible forms and sell it off as genuine Cryptids, she tells her of meeting her husband making a new life of rescuing animals from Horrid people and nursing those who were injured so they could live Better Lives without fear, they stare into each other's eyes and embrace with the loneliness of years separated

Now our  family is one human bigger, she lets out a sigh and lets more tears slip from her eyes as she holds her son close, he'd  Fallen asleep after some time of crying and they both walk from the stage and back into their lives

Chapter 55: the Fable of the color changing Oni

Chapter Text

" Once Upon a Time long ago in the Land of the Rising Sun there was a sequestered Village  who lived in comfort and peace"

The teenage girl sitting at the table is wearing a green kimono,   her black hair is done up with an orange hair pin in the shape of horns and in front of her on the table of four masks,  she puts on the first 

The green ogre mask of happiness , instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the ogre much younger barely out of kindergarten rides in the front seat of a car down the countryside,  the one driving the car is a man with black hair like hers and face that Spooks many but that she loves, this is the big Ogre, and she is the little ogre

" one day two ogres came into town, many were scared by them for they were monsters and did not belong, but a mask making family saw through their looks and saw the goodness in their hearts "

The big and little ogre are much like in the story shunned by many in the town for the big ones scary looks and their status as Outsiders, but they are given Asylum like in the tale by a mask making family, pair of grandparents and they're young grandchildren, the boy is the same age as little only and takes a quick shining to her,The young granddaughter is a little bit grumpy  but is amenable to their presence

the big   ogre knew he and His companion could not burden the family for too long with their presence, so he took the little one and ventured into the mountains to carve out a home in a cave, before they left however they were given special masks to protect them from anything that meant them harm, be it fire, water, plant,Or stone”

The real big and little  ogre do not make home in a cave,   they are near a cave though, the little  ogre is sad that she cannot see her new friend as often as she wants, but she's happy to have the big only as a protector and companion, and masks they were given are quite fun to play around with

 the color changing oni takes off the green mask and raises the blue one

  the blue mask of sadness

“One day a boy from out of town and his three Animal Companions, a monkey, a bird , and a dog , came into town looking for great riches,The locals told them of the  ogres on the mountain”

  The boy in reality is accompanied not by animals but by people, and not only the three mentioned he also comes with his elderly Guardians, they come selling mochi and more than just the locals money is taken, though the other things are not replaced with deliciousness like the money, the locals have no reason to question the boy if it's cute face and adorable headband, nor do they suspect the elderly couple,  no one says peep of any of his rough looking companions, not even the big boy who pants like a dog in the summer heat, instead they're suspicion turns to the mountain 

“One night when the big and little ogre were out hunting for food the boys three companions crept to their cave home  and began stealing all they could, luckily the big Ogre was closer to the cave than the little and caught them in the act of pollining the masks!, though the ogre was strong it was three against one and

The Little   ogre skipped up to their cabin, odd the door was wide open and there was something red ,She goes up to the door and she sees… So much red, and gripped in the big ogre's hand ,  something   Green 

 the color changing only lowers the blue mask And Rises the red

 the red mask of Rage, of Revenge

When the little Ogre found what happened to her bigger companion she was filled with sadness and soon after heart rage, grabbing the remaining mask and the big ogres hunting club she rushed down the mountain”

The little ogre is only 10 but the rage  in her body makes her feel like a proud adult warrior, like her papa, like the big  ogre, she wields not a club but a shotgun, it's heavy in her hands but she must be strong, for Papa,  the lights of the Summer Festival are blinding against her tear struck eyes, but she can see good enough to aim her gun

With swift blows she fails all of the boys companions, but before her Fury can be set upon the boy  the young grandson of the mask Family calls out to her, and the rage begins to subside,  into gray grief

She weeps openly into her green sweatshirt in a mask Family abode, she pleads for them to believe her, that those horrible children took her Papa's life, they do, but she knows the rest of the village won't believe her,  so she goes back up the mountain, and no matter how much the grandson pleads for her to stay she knows she can never show her face in this Village again

“ Before the outsider boy leaves with his grandparents he avenges up the mountain, and he hurts the little only greatly, leaving it alive but scarred forever  with the promise that if he ever comes back he will finish the job and kill her”

It is not a thing the boy thinks of doing on his own, it is something his parents suggest, and he does not question them, they love him anything they say is for the best of him, he wants to hesitate when the little ogre screams at him to stop pulling down her pants, but he's a good boy

 and good boys listen to their parents

 the color changing ogre lowers the gray mask,  people raise their hands to clap and sympathy but was raised finger she continues to tell the tale

“ this my friends is not the end of the story, the years past the  little ogre grows big almost as big as the big Ogre, she knows enough to hunt on her own, and the mask Family Leave Her offerings in the colder times when food is sparse”

 she spots The Mask grandson every once in a while leaving her lunch  from his grandparents, she stays inside and never speaks to him

“ but one day another Outsider came into town Person was as good looking as their heart was, curiosity brought them to the mountain and to the ogre”

 the child from Spain is as kind-hearted as the child in the story, but it's not just one child it's two, a boy and a girl accompanied by their pet lizards, one Scarlett and one  violet ,It's not curiosity that brings them up the mountain in real life it's the masked grandson

“ the kind child does not attack as the ogre thought they would, in fact they stretch their hand in friendship”

 the years had not blackened the little ogre's heart, and she is open to the children's friendship, it brings great Envy to the mask child

“The young grandson of the Mask family had grown fond  and thought the only friend little  ogre should have was him and him, and no matter how much little  ogre pleaded that they could all be friends,  the grandson would not be swayed”

 the grandson pins the girl to the ground screaming at her and bloodying her kind face, it is only the strength of the boy and the  ogre the prize him off of her, the ogre screams of the  the first friend she had in a new town, but the outsider who scarred her,  who was friends with the people who killed her father, it's only the hands of the children that keeps her from bringing Fury upon the boy

“ the Ogre took mercy upon the grandson at the request of the kind child, she is ready to go upper into the mountain to hide deeper from society, but the sound of the masked grandson weeping at his action of jealousy Thor's her almost Frozen Heart, she turns and the mask of the outsider slips from the boy's face and for the first time since she was little she sees that a boy as a friend”

 the color changing ogre wears one last mask before her story ends

 once again she wears the green mask of happiness

“The oni came down upon the village not with Fury but with the promise of friendship for all”

“ and they all lived happily ever after”

Chapter 56: a story about the masochistic scorpion

Chapter Text

The man on stage is the youngest brother of the not so wise guy and Uncle of the Showman's duplicate, his purple tipped black hair is swept up into a ponytail, and his namesake is tattooed on his hand, the Scorpion tail rapping around his middle finger and accented by a finger piercing on the tip of the Stinger

" a bit of info right now needle phobia, it's just for medical, otherwise I wouldn't have gotten this baby" he says and flips off the audience to show off his tattoo and giggle was a little at the mix of laughter and gasps he gets

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the Scorpion is the last born of a strict mother and a doormat of a father, but then both nice enough to him, and his siblings

You know the sort of stuff me and my bro got up to, and what the twins did to us, he says flinching slightly at the memory

The masochist shakes is in his bedroom thoughts of medical needles creeping close to his eyeballs dancing in his head like near death gumdrops

"I like my second oldest brother I stick around town, even got to meet my nephew's siblings", the mask is continues gesturing at the duplicate who's winning like a fool, "man I'm going to miss little Lizzy, she was fine girl" he adds wiping away a tear

The masochist discovers his love for pain in high school when his boyfriend at the time gets a bit too handsy and poses hair a bit too hard, the following orgasm could be best described as a miniature or fire hose going off

We didn't break up over that we broke up because he had to move schools

The masochist decides one day in college to test how far pain preference goes, his twin brothers graciously Point him into the direction of a professional Dome they know of, the much older man seems nice enough and he learns very quickly that anything below breaking bone is a okay, the only thing in the non broken bones spectrum that he just can't stand his medical play involving needles

That would have been the end of it, the masochist says before grimacing and continuing, if he wasn't someone who was friends with my brothers, no one who's friends with my brothers is good news

He gets a text from the Dom on his second week out of college and in the real world, just a simple meet up over coffee, maybe they can even test out some other type of pain play he's seen online

Don't worry he didn't drug me with a coffee, he got a lot less friends with benefits when we got to his place though

The playroom door locks and the mask is strapped up something that looks like a massage table, he gives a suspicious home when he's blindfolded but he served by one of the dorms soft but muscular hands

He started out simply a little bit of swatting at my butt cheeks to get me all hard and ready, The Mask says with a Lusty purr and gives a sheepish look at all the nasty looks he gets

When he is hard and ready the dawn Ruffles around in a drawer the mask is not allowed to see in his blindfolded state, but he knows exactly what it is when he feels something begin to slip under his skin was a painful pinch and he flails in his bonds screaming out the safe word as the medical syringe digs deeper into his flesh, not even the Dom rubbing at his erection can quench his hysterical flailing at the shark pain of the needle, which soon becomes tornadoes, and finally three

He didn't get a fourth in me my flailing God so hard I tip the table over and sprained my wrist on the floor

The Dom bandages swollen wrist but the masochist can no longer trust him, and swiftly make sure he can never be in his life again

And he never was, don't know if anything happened to him, can't we contact him seeing as I deleted his phone number

The masochist is working at his nephews pizza place eyeing one of his coworkers, cut the masochist and the bandaged coworker I'm talking over the phone, the masochist has a hand on his arm pinching himself lightly as he says dirty things into the phone

Life's been good for me, I'm still into kinky s***, but I know how to keep my boundaries respected, The Mask says with a smile fiddling with his finger piercing playfully

Summary:

That question being

What is the relation of all the people with same names

Chapter Text

Michael was pissed, Michael is a man who's not known for expressing his pissedness and such ways as he is about to do now

Usually the object of his anger end up in his Taxidermy basement and soon a part of his collection, but this crime is not worthy of the punishment of Art

Usually when someone finds poo in their Garden they chalk it up to an animal, but Michael knows feces, and that was human feces on his daffodils

I need those exactly who squatted

He does not give the man who answers the Furious knocking upon his door a moment to inquire why he stands there and starts his tirade

" I know you s*** in my garden, don't deny it that was human feces on my daffodils, and you're the only person with a copy of the keys to my garden"

" and what if I did" the ever so infuriating Dr Hannibal Lecter answers the smug smile on his face only matched by the smugness in his foreign voice

" then doctor you're not getting the kidneys for my latest trophy" Michael responds and the annoyance on his face gives way to a smile when the smile on lectures Falls

" man I was drunk, you can't blame me, you know my wedding anniversary is coming up", the psychiatrist pleads and Whisper his eyes dotting back to the couch for his brunette husband is watching a documentary about dogs

" well you better come over and pick up your mess, or you're going to have to go to a professional butcher this time" Michael smug smile stretches to its usual disgustingly wide shape," I do hope neither your husband or mine know this the difference", he let's out a small chuckle as he pads back home and smiles wider when he hears the click of Hannibal shoes following after

...

He has some lore for you folks

All the Cobble parts are related, it's sort of a tradition and the Copper Pot family to name the least favorite child Oswald, the only one who's not named because he's a terrible little deformed failure is Gotham Oswald

All the jervises have different last names and are related to an ALICE, Gotham Jervis is both a sister to his own Alice and the cousin of Alice Pleasants, that's why he's American, btas Jervis is the only one with the last name tetch he's a great uncle to Adventures in Wonderland Alice, tnba jervis is a Kingsley and the great uncle of live action movie Alice, and also the distant Uncle of animated movie Alice, the more close relative to animated movie Alice is My OC Jervis Liddell, he's another one of her cousins, Arkham Jervis is American McGee Alice's crazy uncle, his last name is little, and the one related to the Daily departed Alice darling is another one of my OCS Reeves jervis who you know is married to Nicolas Cage Jonathan crane

I'm still thinking about the relationship between them and their respective Alice's actual Hatters from the pieces of media they come from I know for sure that Madeline Hatter and Lenore tetch a BFFs, maybe the dads are drinking buddies, all the actual hatters have H names, except for live action movie theater his name is Terrence, like canonically his name is Terrence

All the Johns have different corvid related last names, Nolan and Gotham John are both Crow, gothams used to be Magpie but he changed it cuz he hates his dad, btas is crane, the new adventures is Raven, Arkham verse is Rook, and Nicholas Cage Reeves John is jay

All the Edwards either nigma or nastin, neither of the types know whether it's because they're related or because of weird coincidence, truly a widow for the ages, anyways all the animated Riddlers are Enigma and all the live action and Arkham Riddler's are nastin, but Arkham Riddler says it's nigma because he thinks the pun is cool and he wants to be cool, he is not

The impostor Jervis is just some Rando who has no relation to any of the Jarvis's or Hatteras

Chapter 58: A story about the accomplices(the lemon demon and the Starry Eyed God)

Chapter Text

The duplicate and his accomplices sit at a dinner table, that all eating burgers made by the duplicates husband

" this is some great stuff Mike", says the yellow head lemon demon as he chews with his perfect teeth, the apps that mindedly scrubs a hand on his black sweater, but he's quickly wiped Away by the other accomplice with a napkin

" I really like the cheese, very melty, very good" the blue tip star-eyed God compliments, his hair dotted with star hair and the dark sky cyan of his shirt sprinkled with glitter

" oh please you shouldn't be complimenting you did help me get the meat" the duplicate laughs knowingly as a glance is over to the door to his basement

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the lemon demon at a time in his life when he did not know the duplicate or the other accomplice, he works at a Fruit Stand selling actual lemons and other fruits, he's visited occasionally by a baby nephew in a pumpkin beanie, he gives the boy lemon candies," for my favorite gourd", he tells the boy, and to his little similarly yellow-haired stand assistant he gives pumpkin gummies

"So how is your sweet little nephew doing", the duplicate questions

" well enough, he's liking getting two types of candies" the lemon demon says a twinge of sadness at that final part

The lemon demon and his little assistant come home to a man with a boyishly young face,"今日はどうでしたか レモンドロップ", the man inquires plating some fried rice and placing them in front of the two blondes

" it was great Rosie, we made a lot of money, but I got something extra special", he pulls out a crayon drawing of him his assistant and the Rose, signed with the name of his little nephew, the rose beams at this and places it next to a similarly crayon drawn image of the little nephew accompanied by the little assistant and what seems to be an attempt to drawing a skeleton, and then there comes knocking at the door

" how has your flock been" the duplicate asks the Starry Eyed God

" good" the man says simply taking care of the bite of the hamburger

Instead of a spotlight movie fragment somewhere far in the past and far away from the lemon demon the young God is born, from his conception he was worshiped, the child of another deity, though since he was capable of understanding what sort of Praise was being given to him he did not like it, the way they looked at him, not only with worshipful joy but a tinge of lust, his progenitor like these looks, so he grinned and buried it

Meanwhile further in time back with the lemon demon he answers his door to find the man who provides the fruit he sells,, though this man is no farmer and he's a business owner, and he's here for his cut of the revenue, " but sir, I don't think we can make it through the weekend was only that much to keep" the lemon demon says looking at the amount left for them when the man was done taking his share, the boss grimaces at this defiance but slides back just enough to keep them barely afloat, he strides out of the house Grimace still on his face but plan boiling in his horrible brain

" so how has the produce been selling" the duplicate taking a sip of the refrigerator chilled Sprite he was given

" great the new guy providing really knows how to handle his Foods" the lemon demon replies, cutting into the Hamburg steak the husband set out for the next course of their meal

The story-eyed God is given many things because of his position, but it's all so expected to give himself to his congregation, he squirmed and arrived during the first couple times when he was of age for this practice, but he learned to just lie there lest the person he was blessing with his body blasphemed and try to hit him into submission, he didn't want any of his people to be hurt because he couldn't handle a little giving back to the community

Lemon demon little assistant walks down the road to school when a van driven by an uncle of a school bully passes by, he says he's a friend of his father's boss, and though the boy is skeptical, he happily takes the bag of pumpkin gummies he's provided as the man drives slowly away, whatever was in those little candies takes effect almost instantly and he slips over himself when he tries to begin his walk again, he's fading in and out the door, he feels the man's hands lift him up before everything goes dark

" how's new car" the duplicate asks glancing over to the story I had God as he takes a bite of his own Hamburg steak

" first, good condition" the man mumbles taking a drink of water

The Starry Eyed God learns to drive when he finally decides that this life of worship isn't right for him, he goes as far as his progenitors Chariot can take him, luckily it's far enough to a hotel, and the wallet his Predator left in the car has enough money for room

The lemon demon drives All Around Town looking for his little assistant, he asked the boy's friends and the parents of the friends, when they had to listen to nothing he takes a wild guess and drives to the school boys house to ask him and his parents, though they're not home or the uncle is home, the man smiles and knowing smile when he's asked about the assistant leans in and tells him, the lemon demon feels like he's going to puke he tries to say he'll call the cops, but the uncle Mary smiles, the glances over to a photo of him and the lemon demons provider,"
you won't be getting anything of him, he was far too tasty to leave leftovers" the uncle Whispers into lemon Demon's ear before shutting the door in his face and leaving the man to consider everything he just learned, and that's when a purple sedan pulls up to the uncle's house

The Starry Eyed God lies in his hotel bed, he's as fully clothed as he can be to be comfortable enough to sleep, though sleep will not come, his mind can't help but we imagine every time he blessed someone in the bed except he was laying on this bed and not the one he actually used, he tries to close his eyes and think of something else, but there was nothing else he can latch his mind too, he was provided no entertainment to distract his mind, so all he could do was imagine things in his life, the twisting of memories is ceased by the bang of a hand upon his hotel door, he rises expecting his progenitor or one of his worshipers to be out the door, but purple isn't the primary color of the dress code of his religion, and the face connected to the purple suit is not one he recognizes, and he remembers every face he blessed, and he blessed everyone in his church

" it sure is good to have friends to share a meal with", the duplicate says wiping his mouth of his meal and licking his lips when dessert is served

"It sure is", the Lemon demon says as he takes a fork full of lemon cake and Pops it into his mouth with a satisfied Grant

"Tasty", The Starry Eyed God says doing the same as the lemon demon

" so how about next week for another meet party" the duplicate asked glancing at his basement door," we still have a whole other cow to cut from",

The Lemon demon Smiles was his perfect teeth. And the story God gives a small Smile as they say in unison

"Sure thing pal"

The end

" you're not even the first person to plead for their lives tonight, but you will be the last for today", Damien says smugly as he backs away and gives Harold the opportunity to see what went on before he woke
Blood, blood everywhere, the body in the chair at the other side of the room positioned in his eye view is clearly Richard smiley, he feels like he's going to puke when his eyes taken the state of his body, his stomach had been opened with some sort of sharp Implement I just got pulled only slightly just spill out, he hopes that the slip throat happened before the Gunning, he also notice it back both of his arms have been cut off, the last Very thing you can take in is Richard's broken glasses before Damien Came into view

" mumbles is the only thing I love in this world, well him and hamburgers, but anyways so they really started being pushy on this thing after.. The Imposter

It starts on a sunny day and will be pleasant for anyone who wasn't the man, some randomer comes up to heaven thanks him for his Good Charity, he crumbles at the person and he continues his walk, and it happens again the next day with two more people and so on and so forth, things come to a head when he finally meets The Man pretending the beat a the man

" he was in my house!, I would have called the cops but, well I just got out of court, and he had one of my shirts and I had to get it back"

 

the chase ends in the Imposter man escaping and the real man swearing hard Vengeance like he usually does, he calls up his buddy who is quite skeptical about the existence of this imposter

The Archangel sits in the confessional booth, he had much to confess, and much to think about now that he was looking back on newly recovered memories being shined in a new light

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the person the Archangel used to be, smug, overbearing, and with an ego as big as his muscles, and despite it all everyone in his congregation loved him, except for one

I was never nice to him father, none of us were, we always thought he wasn't faithful enough to God, but maybe he was the most faithful of us

Though they never really do interact that much, but it is noticed when the internet even less, days go by and he sees less and less of the East Guardian, and then not at all, but when he does see him again

It wasn't me who planned it, I know saying I was just following orders doesn't mean a thing, I know it doesn't make me feel any better for doing it, but it's the only thing I can say

The memory of defiling the syrup and is still fresh with him after the fact, he doesn't regret it at the time, thinks it's punishing a sinner for daring to defile a child of the Lord, but that fervent belief begins to shake like wind on branches when he's going on his weekly jog and finds a person that will change some strongly held beliefs in himself

It wasn't love at first sight, but it wasn't a slow burn either, they were beautiful, the greatest Temptation I had ever faced, they changed me, we changed each other

For the worst the father Superior tells him, but the Archangel doesn't think it's for the worst, and when he says so...

What happened after I don't remember, it must have been something bad, all I know is that I woke up stripped of many things

He wakes up naked outside, he would be panicking if he even knew what he could Panic about, but he did not so he didn't, what he did do is get on his feet and start walking to the first place he could think about, and then he got a bit sidetracked

I want to blame them for slamming the door at me, but you didn't, he was always so... Forgiving

The serpent does not react well to seeing the Archangel again, you pass his teeth and may have even been the man if the Eastern Guardian hadn't pulled into the side to explain the circumstances, and with some grumbling from the serpent he is allowed to stay

I had a good time there, it was nice, not being me, being forgiven, even if I didn't know what I needed to be forgiven of, at the time

He's a good many things when he's not himself, he's a good bookkeeping assistant, he's a good babysitter to the little child given to him from time to time, he's even a good listener when the serpent threatens him, he is a bit confused when the redhead pulls off is very nice black code and starts to take off his undershirt, but he understands very well when he showed the mark his old self gave the serpent

I apologized, I didn't know exactly what I did but I knew it was my fault for that scar

He thinks the serpent is about to try to kill him when the door to the upstairs bedroom is flung open by a very frazzled Eastern Guardian and the person of the archangels dreams, and looking upon them brings memories, so many memories

We kissed, a little bit too hard

When they finally pull away from each other the serpent has a shirt back on and looks like he's about to vomit, the Eastern Guardian has looked between please and Confused, and the Archangel starts apologizing some more

Things are confusing now, but better I think, I heard from my own congregation that they kicked out the old father Superior, brought in some new blood, I... I don't think I'm ready to step into that place again for a while, I just

I just need some time to figure out who I'm going to be now, I do know I don't want to be anything like I was before

Chapter Text

The hat and the Hare sit together at the dinner table, the Hare glances over to the hat from time to time most particularly the blues hidden belief his shirt sleeve, " you don't have to hide it from me Harold, he's not here" the Hare Whispers soothingly creeping a hand to lift up the Hat sleeve

" I know, but it feels like he's still here"

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the hat is the latest in a long line of haberdashers, he takes quickly to the trade of his father and grandfather, all of his friends and family love him very much, his cousin however loves him a little too much, at least that's what he told him the first time

The Hat sleeve is pulled up to reveal the newest bruise on his arm, this arm and most likely the other are spattered with the imprints of old bruises, many very handshaped, " when did he start leaving these", the Hare in choirs

" when we started dating", the Hat answers rolling up his other sleeve to view more bruises

Because it never does anything like that again for the rest of his childhood and teenagerhood, and he pretends it never even happened, he puts his mind to other things, like hat making, and graduating with honors, and hooking up with a Hare, and that's when his cousin comes rolling back into his life, if he tries to Pretend some more, but he knows he can't keep it up

" I think he was jealous of me, jealous that I was more successful than him, jealous that I had it's such a beautiful person in my life", the Hat muses rubbing a loving finger onto the Hare shaking hand

" is that why you kept fighting with that man he brought around" Hare guests letting out a shuddering breath

The cousin leaves his life again suddenly and without explanation, maybe he had a change of heart, or maybe he just grown bored, no matter the reason life went on and he tried to pretend he never had a cousin

" w- we should report this, make sure he never comes back"

The hat looks the Hare in the eyes and gave us a solemn nod and hopes to all that is good that his cousin will never come back

Chapter 65: Side Story Embarrassed

Chapter Text

Veronica had been looking forward to this evening for weeks. She and Vanessa had planned a special date night, just the two of them. It was their three-month anniversary, and Veronica wanted everything to be perfect. She had picked out a cozy little Italian restaurant on the edge of town, one with dim lighting and a romantic ambiance.

Veronica spent hours getting ready, meticulously choosing her outfit and carefully applying her makeup. She wanted to impress Vanessa, who always seemed effortlessly stylish. When she finally deemed herself ready, she took a deep breath and headed downstairs.

Her father, Michael, was lounging on the couch, engrossed in a sports game. "You look nice, honey," he said, barely glancing up from the TV.

"Thanks, Dad," Veronica replied, trying to keep her nerves in check. "I'm going out with Vanessa tonight."

Michael finally looked up, a mischievous glint in his eye. "Oh, Vanessa, huh? The girl you're always talking about. I hope she's ready to meet your old man one day."

Veronica rolled her eyes. "Dad, please don't embarrass me. This is really important."

"Alright, alright," Michael said, raising his hands in mock surrender. "I'll be on my best behavior."

Feeling a bit reassured, Veronica made her way to the restaurant, where Vanessa was already waiting. Vanessa looked stunning, and Veronica's heart skipped a beat as she saw her standing by the entrance.

"Hey, you," Vanessa greeted with a warm smile. "You look amazing."

"You too," Veronica said, feeling her cheeks flush. They walked inside, hand in hand, and were soon seated at a cozy table in the corner.

The evening was going perfectly. They shared a delicious meal, laughed over silly stories, and enjoyed each other's company. Veronica felt completely at ease, her earlier nerves melting away.

Halfway through dessert, Veronica's phone buzzed. She glanced at it and saw a message from her father. She sighed, hoping it was nothing important, but decided to check it anyway.

Michael: "Hey, kiddo, just checking in. Hope you're having fun. Don't forget to tell Vanessa about the time you tried to make spaghetti and set off the smoke alarm. Classic Veronica move! 😂"

Veronica's eyes widened in horror. She could feel her cheeks turning crimson as she quickly put her phone away. Vanessa noticed her reaction.

"Everything okay?" Vanessa asked, concerned.

"Yeah, just my dad being... my dad," Veronica said, forcing a smile. She hoped Vanessa would let it go, but of course, Vanessa was too perceptive for that.

"What did he say?" Vanessa asked, her curiosity piqued.

Veronica sighed. "He just reminded me of an embarrassing story. It's nothing, really."

Vanessa leaned in, her eyes twinkling with amusement. "Come on, you have to tell me now."

Reluctantly, Veronica recounted the tale of her disastrous attempt at cooking spaghetti, complete with the smoke alarm going off and the kitchen filling with smoke. Vanessa burst into laughter, and despite herself, Veronica couldn't help but laugh too.

Just as the laughter died down, Veronica's phone buzzed again. She hesitated before checking it.

Michael: "By the way, remember to tell Vanessa how you once wore mismatched shoes to school. 😂"

Veronica groaned. "Oh my god, he's not stopping."

Vanessa raised an eyebrow. "What now?"

"He just reminded me of another embarrassing story," Veronica said, her face flushing even more.

Vanessa's laughter bubbled up again. "Okay, now you definitely have to tell me."

With a sigh, Veronica shared the story of the mismatched shoes, which only made Vanessa laugh harder. Veronica couldn't believe her father was doing this, but seeing Vanessa so happy made it a bit more bearable.

The rest of the evening continued with more laughter and shared stories, both embarrassing and sweet. By the time they left the restaurant, Veronica felt closer to Vanessa than ever.

As they walked to their cars, Vanessa took Veronica's hand. "You know, your dad sounds pretty great. Embarrassing, but great."

Veronica smiled. "Yeah, he can be. Sorry about tonight, though."

"Don't be," Vanessa said, giving her hand a reassuring squeeze. "I had a wonderful time. And now I know a few more things about you."

Veronica laughed. "Guess I can't hide anything from you."

"Not a chance," Vanessa said with a wink. "But that's okay. I like knowing everything about you."

As they shared a goodnight kiss, Veronica realized that even though her father had embarrassed her, the night had turned out better than she could have hoped. Sometimes, the most memorable moments were the ones you didn't plan.

Chapter 66: Day in the life of Mr fingers

Chapter Text

Mr fingers woke up to the sound of birds, he got to his feet slowly rubbing the Sleepy dust from his eyes

" oh look at the time, I must be getting breakfast ready, I'll have company in no time" he said to no one as he glanced over to the long Broken Clock on his side table

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment when Mr fingers was little life was different, clocks worked both in his mind and in reality, the birds really did chirp, and the house was bustling with life, there was a mommy fingers, and a daddy fingers, and two little wonderful boys, mirror to each other, an almost perfect reflection

Mr fingers lose himself in thoughts of his upcoming visitors, and only comes back to himself with the smell of burning bacon and eggs on the pan, like it's the most logical thing to do he grabs the food in the pan and his bare hands barely noticing the sizzling burn, he plops the food on two plates, a bit for him, and a bit for guests

Mommy and daddy fingers were not good, he doesn't know what sort of Chip they had on their shoulders for him, but they targeted him the most with their awfulness, sending him out to do chores a boy his age shouldn't do in all sorts of weather, he remembers quite clearly the state his fingers were left when he was sent out in a cold December to grab wood from the shed, he remembers crying for father when his hand got stuck on the freezing shed knob, he remembers having to pull as hard as he could to get them unstuck

He remembers the red dots in the snow when he finally did

Mr fingers pics at his plate of eggs, glancing every now and then to the door, in the distance he hears tires on Road and he waits patiently for his guests to come

Things were better when he left home for brighter pastures, he went to all sorts of places, he saw Paris and that wonderful big tower, eventually he settled down where he started, the house was quiet, he takes mother's room for his own, and he can swear he sees her face in the mirror every morning, can feel her hands on areas they shouldn't be every night, Dr pampernac says he'll stop if he keeps taking his pills

But everyone slips up now and then, and the more he slips the harder it is to get back up

As the tires get closer he can hear the sirens, he does Hope greatly that they like the spread he gave them, for a moment he considers fixing up some toast, but then again he doesn't have enough time, so he just sits and waits

His neighbors help him get it back up when he's Falls, that's a wonderful butcher woman down the road, those lovely fellows next door, Mr cumberdale, Miss Baxter, and that funny African man Mr Fisher

And that's sweet little girl Mabel, like his own daughter that little Gumdrop, that little dress so easily to grab and his fingers, those eyes like jewels especially when she cried

He did something bad, Mr fingers nose he did something bad, he hates himself for it, but that little lovely found him when he fell, and she had no idea how he got when he fell, she didn't know how he got when he couldn't speak for things when he wanted to

" this is the police Mr Fredericks, put your hands up and we can do this quietly sir", one of his guests says as he opens the door, he rises from the table on shaky legs, his legs always get a bit shaky with new company, he grabs a handful of a yummy bacon on the guest plate and lifts it up with a smile

" would you like some nums my friends, I made this for you chaps", he says vacant eyes looking forward into nothing, on the stove the pan still sizzles the grease popping like a fire

Chapter 67: A story About the pancake sailor

Chapter Text

The young boy sits on the examination table fidgeting slightly as a doctor surveys the many injuries on his skin

" and tell me how did you get this one again", the man says casually barely concerned when the boy finches at the touch of rubbing alcohol on one of his scratches

" fighting a sea monster", the boy replies like it's the most logical thing he could have gotten it from doing

The doctor mainly homes in acceptance before putting a bandage on the cut he was tending to

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment it's a dark and stormy night and like something from the Bible a baby floats in a basket on the ocean, soon it's finds its way to a little boat house and the first thing it sees when it's opens its eyes is its mother

" Bobby says I shouldn't fight so many monsters, but that's what Sailors do, you know" the pancake sailor says a little bit ashamedly and the doctor merely continues banding up wounds that need to be

There is a father figure in his new home, though his maternal one says he isn't much of a father, but the pancake sailor loves his captain like any child would, and though the man won't say it he does too in his own way, his captain takes him all sorts of fun places, he really like the place with the funny smelling drinks though he doesn't get to drink any, he really likes the back of the place it has so many games to play, captain says they're for grown ups but it's still fun to watch

" and where did you get this one", the doctor says with some concern glancing at the particularly fresh and concerningly shaped bruise on the boys side

"Oh that one's a fun story, Captain was playing one of his funny adult games with some buddies, but he wasn't doing it too good, but then"

Captain says he's going to be going on an adventurous some of his friends, the Sailor so excited he doesn't see the concern in the Man's eyes when he's LED Away by one of the men who is playing that funny adult game with his captain

" they had a really awesome hideout, and they're Captain seemed super cool", the boy continues the excitement from the memory obvious in his tone

The man looks like every sailor the boy had seen in his favorite picture books, everything about him is cool, for his eye patch to awesome tentacles wrapped around his arms, the man surveys the boy and seems pleased with him, the boys too young to know this type of pleased is not good

" but they were bad sailors, should have known, guys with tattoos that cool never good" the boy continues wincing a little when the doctor gives a quizzical poke to the hand shaped bruise on his side

So at the time he does not realize that he's in a nest of bad sailors until he's sent off to his new quarters, his wondering about how his mother will feel about his new awesome life is interrupted by his roommate, the boy refers to him as fresh meat even after he gives his actual name

" you know what we do the fresh meat", his room made it asked him and he did not know

" and I didn't like knowing, I didn't like it at all" the boy remarks rubbing a less fresh mark on his arm that's slightly fish shaped

The violence his roommate gives him his is only physical, he appreciates that now but in the moment he's quite taken by surprised after the fact, his roommate is fast asleep having tuckered himself out with all the punching, with a couple shuddering breaths and a few more tears he gets up from his place on the floor and walks slowly, he repeats his mother's phone number in his head, he hopes this place has a phone

" they did so you know, I didn't get to use it though" the boy remarks idly before taking another lick of the lollipop he was given, the officer sitting next to the town doctor takes note of that

He gotten so close to it before it was wrenched away from him, he barely notices the end of a tentacle tattoo before his vision goes completely dark as his face is stuffed into a surprisingly soft surface, he thinks it's a pillow but any more thinking about what he's been shoved on is quickly taken off of his mind

" am I going to have to let you look" the boy pauses gesturing at the place no one should put anything at

" not unless you are okay with it, but I don't think we're going to need that", the doctor says in a reassuring tone

" that's good, only Bobby does that and I know she's never do anything like what happened " the boy says matter of factly

His new captain had left after the deed letting the boy just lie there, he huddles in onto himself, his breaths became faster and faster before suddenly with a heaving cough disgusted by or spills from his lips, he gives a couple more coughs before rolling onto the hard wooden floor, bit and tears wet his face and he flinches at a hand on his shoulder, when he finally looks up he sees not his new captain, but his old one

" let's get you out of here kid, come on up you go" the man said in the whisper heaving the boy up over his shoulder, soon they're outside the cold night air softened by the warm bosom of his mother

"Bobby was super mad at captain, she yelled at him all the way back home, he really was sorry though, he even tuck me into bed when we got home" the boy finishes but gets sad look on his face a mom and dad after," he hasn't been taking me on a lot of outings lately, only boring stuff like shopping, hey when you guys find those guys can you tell Captain he can take me on adventures again", he inquires too the police officer

" we will son, I'm sure the Cavs will be thrilled when those bunch of rotten Sailors are out the Seas", the officer says giving the boy and encouraging pat on the head

" yeah, maybe we can go to Candy Island, I've always wanted to go, but Bobby says it'll rot my teeth, but I've always wanted to get a gold tooth and I know if you have a bad tooth you get to get one, that's what all my books say at least", the boy trailers off on wants he doesn't know this the officer walk out and his mother walk in until she's calling him to go home

He can't wait for all the Adventures he'll get to go on again, so excited he can barely sleep eventually sleep does take him and he dreams about flying in a big airship with his best BFF next door, Captain's there too and they're all having great fun and nothing ever bad happens ever again

He hopes his dreams come true

Chapter 68: The story of the robbed co-owner

Chapter Text

The co-owner sits at his writing table, the pen shakes slightly in his age weakened hand, he takes a deep breath and begins to write

" dearest nephew if you are reading this I am dead"

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the co-owner meets the show runner in college, they become quick friends, and soon become more than emotional family with the showrunners marriage to the co-owner's sister, he knows his sister loves his best friend, but he's was never sure if the same was true the other way around, he always suspected his love lay somewhere else, he may have been blind to many things but he was never blind to looks

" i want you to know it isn't your fault, this is no one's fault but mine and father's, he's dead now and I must follow him, it's the only way with the stain of what he's done upon the world can truly begin to heal"

He tries to not notice the looks that keep happening even after he finds a wife of his own, he can feel the Man's eyes born to the back of his skull even harder when he has a daughter, he loves his daughter as much as he loves his best friend's children, he can sense that they see him more as a father than their actual one, but he says nothing to his best friend about it

" i don't think anything would have changed if he'd confessed to me, he didn't truly love me, i'm sure he would have killed me if I married him, like he killed the closest thing he could have to me"

He Weeps when he finds his daughter, and the show runner consults him, but he doesn't feel healed when the person everyone believes to be her murderer is sent to prison, he doesn't truly know it for sure at the time but something in him tells him, they got the wrong man

" like he killed my daughter"

He consoles his best friend when his own children begin to die off, he wants to believe the tears are real even now, maybe they were, maybe even a monster like he could feel lost, even from things he threw away himself

" i know you think the only way to hurt me is by taking things from me, but that isn't true, he heard me another way, right after your mother died he"

They control each other when the sister dies, somewhere in himself he knows the tea is a fake, he knew the moment he saw the eldest face when he looked at his mother's grave, he's going to ask him about his feelings towards them when lips are pressed against his, he pushes back, this is wrong, in so many ways this is wrong, but the best friend keeps going, no matter how much he struggles

" i don't know why he waited until then to do it, i guess he thought if he stripped me of everything that put distance between us i'd accept his offer, i think he knew I wouldn't, I think it was just foreplay for him"

The best friend leaves after that, they never talk again, he gets full ownership of the business, and the co-owner almost completely resigns himself to live the rest of his life alone, and he nearly does

" this was going to be an inevitability, it would have happened earlier if not for you"

His eldest nephew comes to his door greatly changed with age, resembling his father more than the last time they saw each other, he nearly mistakes him for the man himself before he begins speaking

"i thought you were there to kill me, i'd seen the disappearances on the news, and somewhere in myself I know it was you, you probably should have, would have saved me the time laying in a bathtub with my wrists slit"

The nephew takes him somewhere, somewhere freshly burned and doused, he knows exactly who the coops on the chair is, the nephew says nothing keeps a neutral face as he looks as well, the nephew asked him something and despite everything telling him to say yes, he doesn't, he knows he can't, too much sin ways on his heart already

" i don't know why you asked me to join you in this, you know I'd say no, you know I didn't have the heart for the things you were willing to do, you're doing a perfectly good job cleaning up this city, you don't need an old man like me"

" i leave you with this, i loved you and you siblings like you were my own goddamn kids, i still do, i know this is going to be hard on you, but you got your own family now, this is for the best, this is always how it was supposed to end

Sincerely uncle Henry"

Michael puts down the note and looks back up to the hanging form of Henry Emily, a couple tears still roll down his cheeks, he pulls the man down from his news and lies him on the bed, he'd stop breathing long before he got here

He was right this was always how it was supposed to end, maybe he should have been the one to take away the burden of living knowing that you could have stopped the monster from him, but he knew Henry was a man who truly wanted to go out by his own hands

And he couldn't deny an old man his way, especially not one who felt so much like his real father then his actual one

He talks him into bed and just leaves, he'll call someone when he gets home, right now he just wants to be there, be with his family, maybe we'll call aunt Mary

But that's later now he must be home and appreciate what he has

The end

Chapter 69: One shot: groceries

Chapter Text

Michael woke up early on a Saturday morning, the golden rays of sunlight streaming through the window of his small apartment. He stretched, feeling the warmth on his face, and decided it was the perfect day to tackle some grocery shopping.

As he made his way to the kitchen, he noticed the fridge was nearly empty—just a carton of milk nearing its expiration date, a lone egg, and a few wilted vegetables. Michael chuckled to himself, realizing he'd been putting off this chore for too long.

He grabbed his reusable shopping bags and headed out the door. The crisp morning air was refreshing, and the streets were just beginning to come alive with the hum of weekend activity. Michael liked this time of day; it was peaceful, with only a few people out and about.

The grocery store was a few blocks away, a quaint little market that Michael preferred over the big chain stores. The owner, Mrs. Patel, always greeted him with a warm smile, and the produce was fresh and locally sourced.

As he entered the store, the familiar scent of fresh bread and ripe fruits welcomed him. Michael grabbed a basket and started in the produce section. He picked out some crisp apples, bright red tomatoes, and a bunch of leafy greens. He moved on to the bakery section, where he couldn’t resist adding a loaf of sourdough bread to his basket.

As he continued through the aisles, Michael found himself lost in thought, considering what he might cook over the next few days. Maybe a hearty stew or a simple pasta dish? He enjoyed cooking, especially when he had fresh ingredients to work with.

At the dairy section, he picked up a block of his favorite sharp cheddar and a dozen eggs. He was about to grab a carton of milk when he noticed a woman next to him, struggling to reach the top shelf for a bottle of cream.

"Let me help you with that," Michael offered, reaching up to grab the cream for her.

The woman smiled gratefully. "Thank you so much! I don't know what I was thinking, trying to reach that."

"No problem at all," Michael replied with a smile.

They exchanged a few more pleasantries before going their separate ways, but the brief interaction left Michael with a warm feeling. It was a simple thing, helping someone out, but it made his day a little brighter.

With his basket full, Michael made his way to the checkout counter, where Mrs. Patel was ringing up another customer. When it was his turn, she greeted him warmly, as always.

"Good morning, Michael! Looks like you’re all set for the week," she said, scanning his items.

"Morning, Mrs. Patel. Yes, I’ve been putting it off for too long," he replied with a laugh.

She nodded knowingly. "It happens to the best of us. Anything special you’re cooking?"

"Maybe a stew or some pasta. I haven’t decided yet," Michael said as he handed her his payment.

"Well, whatever it is, I’m sure it’ll be delicious," she said, handing him his change and receipt.

Michael thanked her and headed out the door, his bags full of fresh groceries. As he walked back home, he felt a sense of contentment. It was a simple, ordinary morning, but in those small moments—helping a stranger, chatting with Mrs. Patel—Michael found a quiet joy.

Back in his apartment, Michael unpacked his groceries, carefully placing everything in its place. The once-empty fridge was now full of colorful, fresh ingredients, and Michael felt a sense of satisfaction. He decided to make the stew after all, knowing that the comforting aroma would fill his apartment by the afternoon.

As he began chopping vegetables, Michael smiled to himself. It was a good day, a simple day, and sometimes, that was more than enough.

Chapter 70: Comic strips about a lazy cat

Chapter Text

A man sits at His drawing desk calming his mind for inspiration, He is over to a photo of him and a friend, The man has some girth to him, His hair and mustache give him Cat like qualities, An idea comes to the man’s head as he begins to draw

Instead of a spotlight, a movie fragment, The lazy cat is a child sitting, waiting for someone he highly suspects won’t be coming back, His stomach growls and the smell of food finally brings him to his feet as he walks Slowly up to window shining light from it, inside a chef is busy making food, All of it, make the boys mouth water, but most of all a steaming pan of lasagna

The comic begins with an orange cat looking hungry at a plate of lasagna
The lazy cat lowers his head in surprise, when the chef notices him and brings it back up when he hears the window be opened, the smell of lasagna has grown stronger as a singular plate is put on the window window, which is grabbed and eaten gratefully
in the next panel cat has eaten the whole plate of lasagna

The cat lives with the chef from many years, And grows fat with love and food, And despite the nickname, He is a man who works for his noodles,He becomes buddies with many of the regulars of his new restaurant home, his closest being a brunette who seems to have a lot of Lady trouble, and a blonde who doesn't seem that bright, but he cherishes them despite his snark towards both

The next panel shows a man who greatly resembles the man at the desk walking into frame, he looks very unpleased

The day that would bring another dose of tragedy to his life seems like a normal one, he was busy taking orders, when a particular customer grabs his attention, something about her feels... familiar, everything about her feels familiar, he can swear he remembers her voice from somewhere, his wonderment on how this woman seem so familiar is shook from him when someone calls for their order to be taken, he glances back to her on his way to give the orders to the chef, but she had gone

The man says in a speech bubble " why'd you eat that, that lasagna was for my mom"

He sees her again when he's taking out the garbage, " i think I know you"
he says to her and she immediately gives me a smile and Pat's his hand," good to see you again" is all she says and something in him clicks, and he can't help the tears from falling as he hugs his mother for the first time since he lost her

The reunion is cut short by yelling my car on the street near the alleyway, the man in the car can clearly be seen as very muscular even from the distance, he calls to the cat's mother calling her awful names and she pushes back hesitantly from her son, and walks back into the life she swore she never let her son live

The driving off when he finally gains the state of mind to try and chase them, all they can do is walk back into the restaurant and pray that their lives intermingle again, but he can rip her from the life she saved him from

The cat nearly shrugs his feline shoulders and says " i don't see your name on it"

The lives due into mingle once more, though not in a way he's ever want, the man from the car walks into the restaurant when slightly rainy day, he's even one posing in close up, and the cat barely seats him and takes his order, the man grabs his hand before he goes and threatens " better not being in my woman again, or else you hear me" the man whispered to him, and in a fit of dumb defiance the cat wrenches his arm from the muscular man and a barely walks to another table

Later he's awakened by strange noises coming from the kitchen, on the softest feet he can muster he walks and tries to hold back gas when he sees people rummaging through the kitchen, most likely for money, he hides behind the door when one of them glances over, he believes as lightly as he can and holds his breath when footsteps come close

And then someone grabs him

He knows the face of the man who does it to him, it's the man from the car, the man who's been trapping his mother from him, he feels the man May kill him, but he immediately defiles him and goes the whole register going with him

He struggles to get himself on his feet and walks back up to bed, somewhere in him he Chuckles at the man's foolishness, the man had built the bars of his own imprisonment and the cat was about slam that door closed

The man says red-faced " it does have her name on it", the cat is holding the plate up to his face and says a simple "oh"

He sees his mother again on the TV, crying her eyes out, something in him knows that she's proud of him

They finally Embrace again when she comes into the restaurant a week later, they were just about to close, but they did have one last pan of lasagna, he did most of the catching her up on what he was doing, there was nothing much she wanted to we live through saying it, so she just listened and knew her boy was going to be okay

The manager desk writes out a stylized the end sitting back and letting out A Satisfied Huff of exertion

" i should call him" he says out loud to himself and reaches to the side to dial up an old friend

The end

Chapter 71: Side Story: awkward

Chapter Text

Michael shaked out a singular sleeping pill from the bottle which he then placed back onto the medicine cabinet, walked back into the kitchen, he quickly plays the pill in between the salami and one of the slices of bread used to make the sandwich he was going to give his newest trophy

Of a sound of knocking he walked over to the door and opens it not to what he expects

" are you nice tits 66" he questions the preteen on his doorstep,

" mr Fitzgerald? ", the boy says quizzically as he Squints behind his glasses, " you're cutesy lover 29 ", the boy continues his feet clearly primed to start sprinting if the man in front of him does anything

" listen kid don't panic, i wasn't on there for what you think", michael says as reassuringly as he can and the boys feet instead of themselves in a more karma position," come inside I'll try to explain", he got the boy inside and grabs the other sandwich he originally made for himself and places it in front of the young lad

" i was on there to catch other people on there for what you thought I was on there for", michael explains and trying his best to relax into his arm chair

" what do you do when you catch them", the boy questions

" i called the cops on them", michael's eyes and the boy really gives a nod of acceptance

The boy had finished with his sandwich michael suggests he leaves, but it's all comes to him as the boy begins to mount his bike again

" hey good what's your name", he yells from his front step and his eyes widen in realization when the boy answers

" it's Oswald Mr Fitzgerald, i go to school with your son",

At all Michael can do is stand on his front step and pray to the heavens that this boy is never touched by the Horrors that seem to fall upon all that collude themselves in the lives of the Athens

And he shall weep when those prayers go unanswered

Chapter Text

The baby bear is a brown haired boy in a striped t-shirt, coat he came into this place with is hanged on the back of his chair, he's sitting in one chair in a group of a circle, the other chairs are also filled with children around his age, he knows the other brunette boy in the room, he goes to school with the one with star bandages on his knees

" dad's really been beating himself up about what happened to me, we both know he shouldn't but he just can't help it I guess"

Instead of a spotlight a movie fragment the baby bear a month ago during his birthday is sitting in a pizza place eating surprisingly good pepperoni pizza, is sitting at another table having conversation was one of his classmates fathers, the other parent looks lost and thought for a moment before saying something that the baby bear doesn't pick up but which makes his father glances at him protectively,The baby bear can feel his father's eyes on him but before he can return his father's glance he's pulled away from his chair by some of his friends to play some games

 

“Apparently he thinks something he did like a super long time ago sort of rippled into what happened, but he was just a dumb kid you couldn't have known that was going to happen or this was going to happen”

when the trio of boys grows bored with the selection of games two of them wander off to eat some more pizza but the baby bear’s attention is grabbed by a sharp whistle coming from a hole, returns you see someone dressed very oddly,The rabbit mask he wears look shortly made and the bright blue eyes that shine through the holes in the mask are filled with very obvious hatred, Baby bear gets his feet ready to run before he can move anymore the older man grab the wrist still perched on the arcade machine and stifles and he screams he could make with the his other hand

“I don't know what made the guy blame my dad in particular for what happened, maybe he thought my dad's the leader cuz you know he's wearing a Freddy mask, I guess it doesn't really matter”, the baby bear shrugs in confusion

the baby bear is Led back into a dimly lit room, his mind rushes with images from a late night documentary he probably shouldn't have been watching, he hopes this guy doesn't have a knife, though seeing as he's enough of a dick to grab a kid he probably does, he lets out a muffled scream when he feels a hand begin to slip down his shorts, when the hand that was muffling his mouth is taking from him he only lets out a little sound before he goes quiet again with cold steel pressed to his neck

“ my life didn't really flash before my eyes seeing as they didn't have a lot to really flash back too”

The heart man head finished once in the boy when a Gruff screaming through the room, before he knew it the man was off him and in the corner of his eye he catches a glimpse of his father’s hands wrapped around the man's neck squeezing with a rage he's never seen in his father before

“I didn't see him die but I did hear his neck snap, I still hear it sometimes in my dreams”, the baby bear that's out a shuddering sigh

the papa bear holds his son close to his chest, The baby bear can't see anything stuff so hard into his father's chest, he hears his classmates father walking to the room and and in the comments voice he's heard in his life the man says

“ I'll call the authorities, you guys can go to the front desk and get a free Pizza coupon if you want”, and with that he's off they both flies on shaky legs and make their way back into the dining area

" what exactly did you dad do", one of the other children say, the baby bear thanks for a moment

Flashback many years ago a group of early teens stand traumatized around the corpse of a much younger boy, his crushed open head is still pooling blood and one of the children, the Boy's brother is the first one to scream, in the flurry of noise and action another young boy stands just as shell shocked as the ones who committed the ACT, and one of his hands he holds a ratty looking Rabbit doll, a hand lands on his shoulder he looks over to see his uncle William, the man holds no grief in his eyes, his face is a complete slab a feelinglessness, he looks over to the boy and gives him a smile that doesn't reach his eyes, he leeds the boy away from the cacophony

" i'm not supposed to say, but you ever see the documentary about fredbear's Family Diner", some of the children in the group give nods shuddering at the memory," well he got a front wheel seat to what happened to that kid back then, i don't know about him but if I saw it i'd still have nightmares to this day"

Chapter 73: A bit of love: making breakfast with a snake

Chapter Text

Crowley woke up earlier than usual, the first rays of dawn filtering through the curtains of their cozy apartment. He stretched lazily, his eyes still half-closed, before slipping out of bed as quietly as possible, careful not to disturb the soft figure beside him. Aziraphale’s peaceful breathing filled the room, and Crowley couldn’t help but smile.

Padding barefoot into the kitchen, Crowley rubbed the sleep from his eyes and took a moment to gather himself. Cooking wasn’t exactly his forte, but today was special. He wanted to surprise Aziraphale with breakfast—something nice, something warm, something that would make his angel smile.

The kitchen, with its mismatched pots and a stack of books piled on the counter (Aziraphale’s doing, of course), was already a comforting sight. Crowley flicked on the light, squinting against its sudden brightness, and began rummaging through the fridge. Eggs, butter, milk—check. He found a loaf of bread that looked fresh enough and pulled it out, along with some jam he knew Aziraphale loved.

"Right, pancakes," he muttered, glancing at his phone for a recipe. "How hard can it be?"

The first few attempts were… less than ideal. One pancake was burnt, the next was an odd, gooey mess. Crowley cursed under his breath, feeling his frustration flare up. But then, he thought of Aziraphale—his soft eyes and gentle laugh—and decided to try again. He mixed the batter more carefully this time, pouring it into the pan with a bit more patience.

As he worked, the kitchen filled with the scent of melting butter and cooking batter. Crowley couldn't help but smile. This time, the pancakes were golden brown and fluffy. He stacked them high on a plate, drizzled some honey on top, and added a dollop of Aziraphale’s favorite clotted cream.

He set the table, adding fresh flowers he’d picked up the day before and a pot of tea steeping just the way Aziraphale liked it—strong and sweet. Crowley took a step back to admire his work. For someone who rarely bothered with breakfast, he had to admit it looked rather impressive.

Just as he was about to head back to the bedroom, he felt a pair of arms wrap around his waist. Aziraphale’s warmth pressed against his back, and Crowley grinned as he leaned into the embrace.

“Good morning, angel,” Crowley said softly.

Aziraphale rested his chin on Crowley’s shoulder, his eyes twinkling. “What’s all this, my dear?”

“Breakfast,” Crowley said, trying to sound casual, even though he could feel his heart racing. “Thought I’d treat you for once.”

Aziraphale turned Crowley around, his smile lighting up his entire face. “You are simply too wonderful.” He reached up to plant a gentle kiss on Crowley’s cheek before pulling him over to the table.

As they sat down, Crowley watched Aziraphale take his first bite, his eyes closing in delight. “It’s perfect,” Aziraphale said, beaming at him.

Crowley’s shoulders relaxed, a wave of relief washing over him. “Yeah? Well, good. Only the best for you.”

They spent the rest of the morning enjoying the quiet of each other’s company, the tea steaming and the sunlight slowly filling the room. For Crowley, it was the best start to any day he could imagine—just him, his angel, and the warmth of a breakfast made with love.

Chapter 74: The digital circus Troop

" besides you didn't even know at the time" the contortionist says casually taking a sip of their drink

" will you couldn't have known what he was going to", the jester can't complete the sentence her gaze flicks between her now empty can and the junior ringleader, he looks so much like his father, but was a look on his face that the real man would never have for her

The room is filled with many things that day, her nervous laughter after the shark of having cold water spilled on her from a bucket and scariously on her boss's door, a sharp gasp when he touches somewhere that he shouldn't when he's helping her get her soaked clothes off, it would have been filled with screams if her mouth wasn't gagged was one of her socks, as she was taken on the man's desk she tries to focus on something else and lands on the memorial photo of a long dead red-haired boss, she's shaking like a leaf when she's sent out from his office in Christine new clothes, the junior ringleader is laughing like a hyena at her when she finds herself back to her cubicle

A silence fills the room as they all finally look at the image of their shared problem on a newspaper, it's a photo of the two bosses, now that the acrobat and the bug tamer finally look at the two men clearly they can see the envy one brother has for the other, the Junior ringleader wipes a couple tears for the loss he had suffered, not of his father but of an uncle he barely knew

They know they shouldn't blame themselves for the man who did it to them is gone, and there's no use pointing fingers at the Dead, even though they still feel his hand on them every night in their nightmares

The bug tamer can still feel his finger on the trigger

The jester, the acrobat, the contortionist, and the tight ribbon Walker can still feel his hands on them

And the Junior ringleader tries to only to think of his uncle's hand on his shoulder

But all of them still have hands on mind

They have no mouths and they must scream

Chapter 75: Bit of fluff: Father Son School Drive

Chapter Text

It was early morning, and a light fog still lingered over the quiet suburban streets as Michael Aften adjusted his rearview mirror. In the passenger seat beside him sat his son, Gregory, his small frame bundled in a navy-blue school sweater, his backpack resting at his feet.

“Ready for another day, Greg?” Michael asked, glancing over as he pulled out of the driveway.

Gregory yawned, his eyes still sleepy. “I guess,” he mumbled, then added, “Are we still going to the park after school?”

Michael smiled, nodding. “Of course. We’ll feed the ducks, like we promised.”

They drove in companionable silence for a few minutes, passing through familiar streets. Trees lined the sidewalks, leaves just beginning to show hints of autumn red and gold. Michael kept one hand on the wheel, glancing over occasionally to see Gregory tracing his finger along the foggy car window, drawing small shapes as he hummed a tune under his breath.

“Hey, Dad?” Gregory’s voice piped up. “How come we always leave so early? School doesn’t start for another half-hour.”

Michael laughed softly. “Well, it’s our little tradition, isn’t it? Gives us time for breakfast together. Plus, it’s nice to take the scenic route sometimes.”

They rounded a bend and the cityscape slowly began to merge with open fields and tall grass, early morning sunlight breaking through the fog in patches.

After a few more minutes, they arrived at a cozy little diner just a few blocks from Gregory’s school. Michael parked the car, and they slid into their usual booth near the window. He ordered pancakes for both of them, and they sat, chatting about school and Gregory’s plans for the day.

As they finished, Gregory glanced out the window. The fog had lifted entirely now, revealing a clear view of the bustling street outside.

“Thanks for breakfast, Dad,” Gregory said, his face breaking into a smile.

“Anytime, buddy,” Michael replied, ruffling Gregory’s hair.

They headed back to the car, and Michael drove the last few blocks to the school. Gregory hopped out, turning to wave one last time before running up the steps, disappearing into the throng of kids. Watching him, Michael felt a quiet pride. These small routines meant the world to him.

He took one last look at the school, then started the car, ready to tackle the day ahead, content in the knowledge that he’d be back to pick up Gregory in just a few hours.

Chapter 76: Side story: Dorothy and the Rubiks cube

Chapter Text

Dorothy Crane sat cross-legged in her room, the pale afternoon sunlight streaming through the wide, dusty window. The room was a mosaic of books piled high and old clocks that ticked and tocked in their own mysterious rhythms. In the center of it all, Dorothy held a Rubik's cube, its brightly colored squares glinting with the promise of a challenge. She’d found it at the back of a musty antique shop, nestled between a tea set and a brass rabbit figurine that reminded her all too much of her father, Jervis.

Dorothy’s nimble fingers turned the cube with practiced precision, each movement accompanied by a satisfying click. She could feel her father's gaze on her even though he wasn’t there; his influence always lingered in the whispers of ticking clocks and the riddles she’d solve before bedtime. But it was Jonathan, her other father, who had given her the steady patience she now used to conquer puzzles.

"Focus, Dorothy," she muttered to herself, shifting a row of blue tiles into place. The corner of her mouth lifted in a small smile. She could almost hear Jonathan's voice saying, The key to unraveling the unknown lies in understanding its patterns.

She rotated the cube again, her fingers working so quickly they blurred. For a moment, she hesitated, her mind racing through the complex algorithms she’d memorized from books and late-night practice sessions. The Rubik’s cube wasn’t just a puzzle to her; it was a battle of order versus chaos, of mastery versus surrender. It was a dance, and she was the choreographer.

“Nearly there,” she whispered, eyes narrowing with determination. She took a deep breath and made one last sequence of moves. The final click rang out in the room, and she held the completed Rubik’s cube aloft, every color in perfect alignment. Victory.

A laugh bubbled up from her throat, ringing out above the ticking clocks like music. The satisfaction was immediate, warm, and electric. She set the solved puzzle down on her desk, next to an old photo of her family: Jervis in his checked vest, Jonathan in his perpetual shadowed frown that softened only when he looked at his children. Beside them, Lenoir and Lewis grinned at the camera, arms draped over each other’s shoulders.

“You did it again, Dorothy,” she said to herself, running her fingers over the smooth, finished cube. But she knew that tomorrow, she’d scramble it again and start over. Because the real thrill wasn’t just in finishing the puzzle; it was in the challenge, the unknown, and the delicate dance of mind and memory that brought it to life.

From downstairs, she heard John’s voice calling out. “Dorothy! Dinner’s ready!”

“Coming!” she called back, glancing one last time at the cube before leaving the room. As she walked away, the shadows from the clocks shifted across the room, ticking off time like an audience applauding her silent victory.

Chapter 77: Date night

Chapter Text

Michael and Jeremy had been together for years, but sometimes, the hustle and bustle of life could overshadow their connection. They decided a date night was in order – a chance to reconnect and simply enjoy each other's company.

Jeremy, ever the planner, had booked a table at their favorite Italian restaurant. As they walked hand-in-hand, the city lights twinkled around them, casting a romantic glow. The restaurant's dim lighting and soft music set the perfect mood. Over plates of pasta and glasses of wine, they shared stories and laughter, their conversation flowing effortlessly.

After dinner, they strolled through a nearby park, the cool night air refreshing. They sat on a bench, watching the stars emerge one by one. The silence between them was comfortable, a gentle hum of contentment.

As they walked back to their apartment, hand in hand, Michael and Jeremy felt a renewed sense of love and appreciation for each other. Sometimes, all it took was a simple date night to remind them of the magic they shared.

Chapter 79: Bit of fluff: Breakfast

Summary:

Sorry I couldn’t get you guys an actual chapter this time, i’ve had a lot of distractions going on this week

Chapter Text

Michael awoke to the soft hum of rain against the bedroom window. He turned his head and smiled, watching Jeremy sleep. His husband’s dark curls were a mess on the pillow, and his hand was draped over the edge of the bed, twitching faintly as if dreaming. Michael brushed a stray lock from Jeremy's forehead, careful not to wake him.

It was rare for Jeremy to sleep in; his work kept him busy, and early mornings were usually filled with coffee-fueled rushes out the door. But today was Saturday. No meetings, no deadlines—just time for the two of them. Michael decided to let Jeremy sleep and surprise him with breakfast.

Sliding out of bed quietly, Michael padded into the kitchen. He opened the fridge and scanned its contents. Eggs, some leftover vegetables, and the sourdough bread Jeremy loved from the farmer's market caught his eye. Perfect.

Michael started with the coffee, the rich aroma quickly filling the air. Next came the eggs—whisked with a touch of cream, salt, and pepper—poured into a hot skillet. He chopped up tomatoes, spinach, and mushrooms, tossing them into the pan, stirring until the mixture became a vibrant scramble.

As the bread toasted, Michael remembered the little jar of honey Jeremy had brought home from their last trip upstate. He spread a light layer of butter over the toasted slices and drizzled the honey on top, just the way Jeremy liked it.

Michael set the table with care, folding the napkins into small triangles and placing the plates just so. He even added a single daisy to a glass of water for the centerpiece—Jeremy had always loved little touches like that.

When everything was ready, Michael walked back to the bedroom, tray in hand.

"Good morning," he said softly, nudging Jeremy’s shoulder.

Jeremy stirred, blinking groggily before his lips curved into a smile. "Good morning," he murmured, his voice still heavy with sleep.

"I made you breakfast."

Jeremy sat up, eyes widening at the sight of the tray. "You didn’t have to do all this," he said, but his expression gave him away—he was touched.

Michael chuckled. "I wanted to. You deserve it."

Jeremy took a sip of coffee and sighed. "This is perfect."

They ate together in bed, laughing and talking about nothing in particular. The rain continued to fall outside, but inside, the world felt warm and peaceful.

"You’re too good to me," Jeremy said as he leaned over to kiss Michael’s cheek.

Michael smiled. "You make it easy."

And for the rest of the morning, the world outside faded away, leaving only the quiet joy of their shared moment.

Chapter 81: Snow play

Chapter Text

The snow blanketed the small town in a perfect, shimmering white. Michael adjusted his scarf as he stepped out of their cozy brick house, Gregory bounding ahead of him into the fresh powder. His adopted son, only seven years old, was a ball of boundless energy, his laughter echoing through the chilly air.

"Gregory, slow down!" Michael called, though a smile tugged at his lips. He could never keep up with Gregory’s exuberance, but he didn’t mind. The boy’s joy was infectious.

Gregory spun around, his rosy cheeks puffed out from the cold, and waved a mitten-covered hand. "Come on, Dad! You’re too slow!"

Michael chuckled, crunching through the snow to catch up. "I’m not as young as you, you know."

Gregory didn’t respond; he was already dropping to his knees to roll snow into a lopsided ball. "We’re making the biggest snowman ever!" he declared, determined.

Michael knelt beside him, tugging off one glove to help mold the snow into a more stable shape. “Biggest snowman, huh? I think we’re going to need more snow for that.”

“Then we’ll roll it around the whole yard!” Gregory’s hazel eyes, so much like Michael’s own, sparkled with excitement.

Together, they worked to shape the snowman, Gregory giving directions while Michael followed along. When the body was complete, they stacked the three segments on top of each other. It leaned slightly to one side, but neither of them cared.

“Time for the face!” Gregory announced, grabbing a stick for the nose. Michael laughed and traded it for a carrot from his pocket. “I came prepared,” he said with a wink.

Gregory took the carrot with awe, like it was a gift from a magician, and carefully pressed it into the snowman’s face. Two smooth stones became the eyes, and a crooked branch made for a wide, toothy grin. Gregory stood back, his hands on his hips, surveying their work.

“It’s perfect,” he said with pride.

Michael reached over and ruffled Gregory’s messy brown hair. “Just like you.”

Gregory beamed, his gap-toothed smile as bright as the winter sun. “Let’s name him Mr. Frosty.”

“Mr. Frosty it is,” Michael agreed.

As the afternoon wore on, they started a snowball fight that ended with both of them collapsing in the snow, breathless and laughing. Gregory climbed onto Michael’s chest, wrapping his small arms around him. “This is the best day ever, Dad.”

Michael hugged him tightly, his heart full. “Every day with you is the best day, kiddo.”

The sun began to dip, casting a golden glow over their snow-covered yard. With Gregory perched on his shoulders, Michael carried him inside, their laughter trailing behind them like a melody.

Chapter 82: The first kill

Chapter Text

Michael doesn’t feel lot of anything in the first moments after he’s killed someone for the first time, it’s only when it finally dawns on him that’s a man lying in his office is dead that a great sense of triumph fills him
This man, like all the others that will come after him deserves his death, a monster that took his desires out on his own child, the little creature was lucky to have one deserving parent in a loving, but unaware mother
It was an easy first kill, he just grabbed the man by the neck and squeezed until he stopped breathing, and it was just as easy to pick up his office phone and called up one of his subordinates
“ Mr. Smith, could you please come to my office?”, he says into the receiver with the voice of someone who doesn’t have a corpse in their office, he sits down at his desk and weights
“ hey boss, you wanna-o my g-“, but Mike is shushed before he can continue his surprise
“ Mr. Smith, I would suggest you with rain from using the Lord name and, as what I needed you for”, he pauses to gesture at the corpse,” would you be so kind as to take that body, and wrap it in this”, he will move a body sized carpet company if his desk, “and then throw it into the dumpster outback”, he smiles to pause that sentence
Mike merely looks between the rapidly cooling corpse and his boss, takes a deep breath, put on a brave face and grabs the carpet

“It pains me to inform you, sweet lady that your husband has left you for another woman”, he continues to rub the back of the grieving woman,”I should’ve known to do this, I always know there was something it was hiding from me, but… oh how could he betray me like this?”, the woman continues to weep openly unknowing of her child, giving a knowing smile to Michael.

His first piece of human taxidermy is a simple thing, the head of his first kill, mounted on a wall, he stands, admiring it so many years later in its place in the middle of a sea of others, he really thinks he should call up that nice woman and her child sometime

Chapter 83: The jackalope actually tells a story

Chapter Text

Three similarly first named men sit at a table, playing a game of cards, the Jacklope is a black hair man with eyes that don’t seem to shine with life like the others, everything about him wouldn’t look out of place on a recently dead man, but he’s alive. He has a pulse.

And he has a story to tell
Instead of a spotlight, a movie fragment, the Jacklope younger, still looking like the preserved living dead, he shared that with his parents, he’s a part of a family of morticians, life is creepy, but it’s good
“ wanna hear how I killed guy”, he inquires his table companions
The other man gave shrugs of acceptance, and the Jackalope begins
He barely remembers the details of what happened to him, he was nodding off in the waiting room of his family’s funeral home, he wakes a little bit when the creaking of a chair tells him someone sits next to him, looking over, he sees a much older blonde man, the main client is over to him, giving him a little wave and the jackalope said it was back down for a nap, he wakes up on the floor, a soreness in his body, especially around his legs and ass, the older man is gone, and the jack never sees him again

“ I was doing my usual prep work for body, I
Had to use the restroom so I left for a moment, and when I got back”
Years later, the Jackalope takes his parents place as the owner of the funeral home, life is a rhythm and life is good, and then something interrupts that rhythm one night, the rhythm he has for embalming a body starts out good, but when he enters the room from his bathroom break, he can barely fail than what he sees
I was so furious. I blacked out, I only realized he was dead when I was washing the blood from my hands
It was self-defense he knows it. That’s what he tells the cops, but he done more than kill one man in self-defense that night. He also deformed another, And with that his life is in another with him that isn’t as enjoyable as the others, his head, thanks get better with a cellmate though
The only other bad thing about it other than it being jail was that it was boring

Thankfully, they were eventually bailed out by a friend Of a friend of his new cellmates, Apparently the guy had connections to some good detectives, and all he wanted in return for this this was some… off the record work from the jackrabbits new brain surgeon friend
it’s good to have a rhythm I like again , anyways, I think I’m done, And with that he shows his cards the big winners, And to the sound of his companions, disappointed noises, he packs up the money and goes back home to the good with him of his good life
The end

Chapter 84: A Late-Night Comfort

Chapter Text

Crowley jolted awake, breath catching in his throat as the remnants of the nightmare clung to his mind. His pulse pounded against his ribs, his skin damp with sweat. He sat up too quickly, the sheets tangling around his legs, trapping him in the lingering terror of whatever dream had just shaken him so violently.

The room was dark, save for the soft glow of the streetlights filtering in through the curtains. London never truly slept, but at this hour, it was quiet enough that the only sounds were the distant hum of cars and the gentle breathing beside him.

Aziraphale stirred, blinking awake as if sensing Crowley’s distress before he even spoke. His hair was an unruly mess, his nightshirt askew, and his face creased with sleep, but his eyes were sharp with concern.

“Crowley?” His voice was thick with drowsiness, but warm, steady.

Crowley swallowed, trying to shake the feeling of dread curling around his ribs. “Nothing,” he muttered, running a hand through his already-mussed hair. “Go back to sleep, angel.”

Aziraphale didn’t listen, of course. He never did when it came to Crowley. He pushed himself up, reaching out with a gentle hand, resting it against Crowley’s arm. “Nightmare?”

Crowley huffed, looking away. “S’nothing.”

But Aziraphale didn’t let go. His touch was light but grounding, something real and solid in the dark. “It’s not nothing if it’s keeping you up,” he said softly.

Crowley let out a shaky breath, pressing his hands to his face for a moment before dragging them down. “I don’t remember much,” he admitted, voice quieter now. “Just… that feeling, you know? Like something terrible was happening, and I couldn’t stop it.”

Aziraphale’s expression softened. He shifted closer, until their shoulders brushed. “That sounds dreadful, my dear.”

Crowley scoffed, though it lacked any real bite. “Bit of an understatement.”

Aziraphale hummed, then, with careful deliberation, reached for Crowley’s hand. He didn’t force it, just let their fingers brush until Crowley, hesitating only briefly, curled his own around Aziraphale’s.

They sat like that for a while, the silence settling comfortably between them. The warmth of Aziraphale’s palm was enough to chase away the last tendrils of unease, enough to remind Crowley that he was here, in this room, not trapped in some half-remembered horror.

“You’re safe,” Aziraphale murmured after a moment, as if reading his thoughts.

Crowley exhaled, tension easing from his shoulders. He squeezed Aziraphale’s hand. “Yeah,” he said, quieter still. “I know.”

Aziraphale smiled, soft and tired. “Come here,” he said, and before Crowley could think to resist, he was being tugged gently back down into the sheets.

Aziraphale settled beside him, arms loose around him, not trapping but anchoring, steady. Crowley let himself sink into it, let the warmth of the embrace pull him from the edge of his nightmare and into something softer.

“Go back to sleep, love,” Aziraphale whispered, pressing a small, absentminded kiss to Crowley’s hair.

Crowley closed his eyes. And this time, sleep found him easily.

Chapter 85: in the garden

Chapter Text

Michael hummed to himself as he stepped out onto the back porch, a watering can in one hand and a cup of tea in the other. The late afternoon sun bathed the garden in warm light, casting golden hues over the flowers and the neatly arranged rows of vegetables. It was a peaceful sight, and he allowed himself a moment to simply breathe it in before making his way down the wooden steps.

The garden had become one of his greatest joys since moving into the house. There was something deeply satisfying about watching his plants thrive under his care. The tomatoes were coming along nicely, their vines twisting up the wooden stakes he had hammered into the soil weeks ago. The basil and rosemary filled the air with their fragrant aroma, and in the corner, the sunflowers stood tall, their broad faces turned toward the waning daylight.

Michael crouched beside the carrots, brushing a bit of soil away with his fingertips before giving them a gentle sprinkle of water. "Not quite ready yet, are you?" he murmured, smiling to himself. He liked talking to his plants. It made the whole experience feel a little less lonely.

A soft rustling behind him signaled the arrival of Gregory, his adopted son, who peeked out from the doorway. "Hey, Dad."

Michael turned, grinning. "Hey, kiddo. Want to help?"

Gregory hesitated before stepping onto the grass, his bare feet sinking into the cool earth. "What do I do?"

Michael handed him the watering can. "Just give those marigolds a drink. Not too much, though—we don’t want to drown them."

Gregory did as he was told, carefully tilting the can over the bright orange flowers. "Why do you like gardening so much?" he asked.

Michael leaned on his knees, wiping a bit of dirt off his hands. "It’s calming," he said simply. "Takes patience, but it’s worth it. Kind of like raising kids."

Gregory gave him a skeptical look. "I’m not a plant."

Michael chuckled, ruffling his hair. "No, but you do need care. And a little sunlight and fresh air never hurt anyone."

Gregory rolled his eyes but kept watering. After a few minutes, he paused and said, "It is kind of nice out here."

Michael smiled. "Yeah. It is."

They spent the next half hour tending to the garden together, side by side. By the time they finished, the sky had turned a dusky pink, and the fireflies were beginning to flicker in the air. Michael stretched, satisfied with the day’s work. "Come on, let’s go inside. I’ll make us some lemonade."

Gregory gave one last glance at the garden before nodding. "Okay. But next time, I get to water the tomatoes."

Michael laughed. "Deal."

And with that, they walked back toward the house, leaving the garden to soak in the fading light of the evening.

Chapter 86: Set up: beyond the grave

Chapter Text

A little girl sits in the attic of a new home, she does not like this place. There’s a feeling of tragedy here, lot of her life has been painted with tragedy recently
her musing is interrupted when her eyes landed on something interesting, a diary, and the thing it’s sat upon was also interesting
It was a spirit board, the planchette was set gingerly on goodbye, she doesn’t believe in the supernatural but something seems to direct her to use this item
She places the planchette in the middle of the board. Two fingers held lately on its sides, she closes her eyes and tries to believe in the afterlife as hard as she can
,,,
Somewhere beyond time, a little boy sits on the opposite side of the board, he places his soft delicate hands upon the girls who doesn’t feel a thing, he cranes his bruised neck to look down at the board, he thinks about what he wants to say, and when it’s bright in his non-living mind, he moves the girls hands with his to spell out a simple message
“Hi”
The girl, wrenches back at the movement and disappears from the boys site, the boy let out a grown, getting up and going back to the corner he’d been sitting in for a long while, set a noise, set him away from his path to the corner
The girl had reappeared, there was curiosity in our eyes, she seemed to be testing if that little movement was just a trick of her mind or not, with a deep breath she speaks a question
“ what’s your name?”
The boy sets his hands up on hers and moves the planchette
“ Casper”
“ that’s a nice name, im kit”
“ do you want to be friends?”
“ sure why not”
Both the people at the board smile at each other, though only one can see the other. They can both feel that this is going to be a turning point in both of their lives … both proper and after
The end

Chapter 87: Grocery Shopping

Chapter Text

The automatic doors hissed open, welcoming Michael and Jeremy into the brightly lit expanse of Farmer Fred's. Michael grabbed a cart, the metal clanging softly, and handed it to Jeremy. "Alright, Captain Grocery," he said with a smile, "lead the way."

Jeremy consulted the crumpled list in his hand. "Okay, first up: avocados. The good, ripe kind, not the rock-hard disappointments."

They navigated through the produce section, the air thick with the sweet smell of strawberries and the earthy aroma of mushrooms. Jeremy squeezed a few avocados gently, his brow furrowed in concentration. "This one feels promising," he declared, dropping it into the cart. Michael chuckled, admiring his husband's dedication to fruit selection.

Next on the list was pasta. As they strolled down the aisle, a display of gourmet cheeses caught Michael's eye. "Oh, look at this brie!" he exclaimed, his mouth practically watering. "We should get some for a little cheese board this week."

Jeremy, already reaching for a bag of penne, paused. "Hmm, tempting. But did we budget for fancy cheese this week, Mr. Impulsive?" he teased, a playful glint in his eyes.

Michael feigned offense. "Hey! A little indulgence never hurt anyone." He batted his eyelashes dramatically. Jeremy laughed and added a small wedge of brie to the cart. "Alright, alright. But you're doing the dishes tonight."

They continued their grocery journey, their conversation flowing easily between teasing banter and practical discussions about dinner plans. Michael spotted his favorite brand of coffee and tossed it in the cart. Jeremy remembered they needed oat milk and veered towards the dairy alternatives.

As they reached the frozen foods aisle, a debate ensued over which brand of pizza to buy. Michael was a loyal fan of "Tony's Supreme," while Jeremy preferred the organic, thin-crust variety. After a few minutes of good-natured arguing, they compromised and each picked their favorite.

Finally, with the cart overflowing, they made their way to the checkout. While Jeremy unloaded the groceries, Michael grabbed a couple of their favorite magazines. The cashier scanned their items, a cheerful "Have a nice day!" echoing as they paid.

Pushing the cart towards their car, the late afternoon sun casting long shadows, Michael leaned against Jeremy. "That wasn't so bad, was it?"

Jeremy squeezed his hand. "Not with you by my side, navigating the treacherous terrain of the frozen peas."

They loaded the bags into the trunk, a comfortable silence settling between them. As they drove home, the radio playing softly, Michael smiled. Even the most mundane tasks became a little brighter, a little more enjoyable, when shared with Jeremy. It wasn't just about the groceries; it was about the small moments, the shared laughter, and the quiet understanding that made their life together so wonderfully ordinary.

Chapter 88: A conversation with a friendly ghost

Chapter Text

The two children sit on opposite sides of the vill between the land of the living and dead, the live girl is riding down each of the words, the friendly ghost is spelling out with the spirit board
I like baseball too, the girl pauses gathering her courage to ask her next question, I need to know Casper… how did you die?
Instead of a spotlight, a movie fragment, the friendly ghost when he was alive sitting next to his dying mother, the light leaves her eyes and the hand that was on his cheek falls, as does the tears that were welling up in his eyes
Got… sick.. like… Mom
I know that, but I don’t think it was the sickness that killed you
The friendly ghost grows weak with the same illness that took her mother, he’s tended to by his father and Uncle’s, mostly by his uncle’s, he considers that a good thing, he doesn’t like the way his father has been looking at him recently
what… do.. mean
I found your father’s journal, I think he did something bad to you
The friendly ghost wakes one time feeling sore between the leg, he wants to believe it’s just because he slept in a bad position, which was not to notice the guilty look his father has
remember… I think..
You’re right
The friendly ghost kept getting sicker after that day, the medicine only made him worse, every medicine his father gave him made him worse, his little lungs breathe the last as he surrounded by his father and uncles, the look of shame, never leaves his father‘s face
He’s buried next to his mother in the house’s personal graveyard, he waits to his afterlife in the attic two days after he’s put into the ground, he’s cold and alone
Casper… I’m so sorry for what happened to you
Don’t. Apologize.. I.. feel.. better
Down in the main rooms of the house, the friendly ghost uncles alive and well I’m taking in what the grief counselor just told them
Yeah, I’m sure he does feel better now, the skinny Uncle says, and something in him says that it’s true
The end

Chapter 89: Incorrect quotes from the mansion

Chapter Text

Hannibal, trying to flirt: So, you come around here often?
Will, confused: I mean, this is my house, so yeah.
Hannibal comes home absolutely drunk, undresses, and stands in Will’s bedroom.*
Will: Babe, are you.. coming to bed?
Hannibal: No thank you, I’m sure you’re lovely but I have a girlfriend.
Hannibal: *Lies on the ground and falls asleep*
Will: Hannibal is playing hard to get.
Will: Little do they know, I'm a master at playing hard to get rid of.
Will: Being gay is a constant battle between "I wish to sit on a window bench with my lover, our legs tangling as we listen to the birds" and "Hey, let's go throw rocks at fascists" and I think that's very sexy of us.
Hannibal: If the window's open and you time it right, you can do both.

Aziraphale : Do you want to explain the text you sent me last night?
Crowley: It was autocorrect.
Aziraphale : Autocorrect wrote "You're so hot. Please step on me."?
Crowley: Yes.
Crowley: You are the love of my life and I would do anything within reason to make you happy.
Aziraphale : I would be happy if you ate, stayed hydrated and got a reasonable amount of sleep.
Crowley: I said within reason, Aziraphale . How about I murder that guy?
Aziraphale : So murder is in reason but proper self care isn't?
Crowley: Well, duh. What kind of question is that?
Crowley: Aziraphale and I are no longer dating.
Aziraphale : Crowley, that’s a horrible way of telling people we’re married.

Crowley: I drink to forget but I always remember.
Michael : You're drinking orange juice.
Michael : We’ll find another route, it’s not safe for amateur adventurers.
Crowley: That sounds like a challenge.
Michael : I have to stress, that is not a challenge.
Crowley: ...Is exactly what you say to dissuade the weak of heart from accepting the challenge. Well, challenge accepted!
Michael : There is no challenge!
Crowley: I’m gonna kill you.
Michael : Get in line!

Michael : Your problem is that you’ve got no common sense.
Hannibal: I’ve got plenty of common sense!
Hannibal: I just choose to ignore it
Hannibal: Michael , I am nothing if not a man of principle.
Hannibal: Now let’s break into this apartment
Michael : Where are you going?
Hannibal: Hell, eventually.
Michael: cool me too, wanna carpool?

Chapter 90: The prophecy of the soulless child of man

Chapter Text

The child of man sits on their bed, the wrongness of their insides still claw at them with the same intensity as when they were stitched into their body
They reached down under their bed and pull out something sharp from a box
and serve a spotlight a movie fragment, the child, younger, and feeling like their body had all the right organs, they grow up surrounded by family, which is not their blood, but they love them either way, they love their mothers butterscotch, cinnamon pies, they love helping father in his garden, they love playing games and watching shows with brother
The child stares at the empty bed across the room from theirs, all the trophies and achievements that their brother had when they had none, they were not jealous of their brother, but it would be nice to at least have something
They love hanging out with the neighbor’s kids, they’re a little bit mean to the one closer to their age, but it’s all for fun. They don’t really mean anything bad by it, her big sister is so cool, one day they hope they can make a beautiful song with their piano and her guitar
They want so many things, they still want to play that instrument duet, they want to start doing piano again, they want to stop being so empty inside

The day that changed everything could’ve been easily stopped, they should’ve listened to their brother and their parents and everyone in town telling them not to go down there, they should’ve both listened… but they didn’t
It was dark down there so so dark, and it was a bad thing to find the light switch, the man down there looked like the older sisters homeroom teacher
he wasn’t
The razor blade feels like a sword against the child skin, they just press it into a little bit of blood comes to the surface, they pull it away, but don’t put it away, they deserve this
The child only stood there as the big sister was pushed to the ground, and when there legs do finally stopped to move… they run away
They deserve this for abandoning her, for being a coward and not saying anything at first, and when they did say something
It was the wrong person arrested, something in the child tells them that, they tried to dry the guilt in television, they tried to drown a lot of of things in television, but no matter how loud they turn up the volume they can always hear screaming

Then let the blood drip down their arm, they bask in the deserved pain, they deserve this for everything they’ve done and everything they’ve thought of doing
The terrible desires come to them when they start their first day of high school, they look at their childhood friend and think of doing terrible things, not the sort of terrible things that happened to the older sister, not at first,
they start giving themselves pain when they think about doing the terrible thing that happened to the sister to the friend
The reach back under the bed and pull out a box of Band-Aids, they place a little heart on the wound and lie back in bed, they close their eyes and think of the good things they’ve done today

They were ups and lows of continuing with life, new friends like the transfer student that looks so much like their brother in his younger years, but different in ways that when notice a hard to unknown, or the mean girl that has a soft center and a soft spot for the friend they don’t want to hurt, but can’t stop thinking of hurting
They have to hurt themselves to keep from hurting the people they care about, it’s the only way, they don’t wanna be a monster like him, they don’t want to disappoint her
Sometimes the child thinks they sees the big sister, they’re older and dressed in something different, the face is hidden, but something in themselves can feel it’s her, the keep site of the figure that might be the sister and they recite their promise
“ I’m not going to hurt her like you were”, they mumbled to them themselves sleep, taking them slow slowly, they hope they don’t have the nightmares again, they huddle in on themselves, wincing when it flares up pain from the wound on their arm
They can feel her with them in the dark, they can feel him in the dark too
They tries not to forget the promise as sleep finally fully takes them
End

Chapter 91: Set up: nameless

Chapter Text

A nameless man sits on a bench watching cars go by, he resembles many people, but also none, his eyes are cold, and his mouth is straight and emotionless
“ it’s good to finally meet you”, says the man with a name on the bench, he resembles only one person, his eyes shine with life, and his mouth was curled into a soft smile
“ likewise”, the nameless man doesn’t sound genuine, but the man with her name is not taking aback by that
“ I do only wish I would’ve met you earlier”, the man with a name, shakes his head in disappointment, “ your talents, wouldn’t have gone to such a terrible work”, he lets outside a hand under his chin looking through the corner of his eye to the nameless man

“ I wouldn’t call what I can do it a talent, I’m not proud of you”, the nameless man does nothing with his lambs, the man with a name looks at him with pity
“ oh don’t talk like that, everyone can do something good in this world if they truly wish to”, the man with a name, puts an arm around the nameless man, “ even you”
The name is man takes the words he’s heard in for a moment before cracking a smile he hasn’t used in a long time
The smile his father used, the nameless man even has his father‘s tooth gap, the man with a name laughs happily at this site

“ you guys ready to go yet, I got all the photos I came here for”, a third man walks up to the bench, he also only resembles one person, but it’s not his father. He looks like
“ I do believe it’s time to be going. It’s nearly lunch and my dear Jeremy is making hamburgers the Jamaican way”, the named man says wiggling his eye, the two other men look at him on amused
“ I thought you said your husband wasn’t Jamaican”, the nameless man says after some awkward silence
“ well yes but he found this lovely recipe online and.. you know what delicious go”, the man with a name averts his eyes as he starts going ahead of the other two men
The nameless man stays behind for a moment, looking at the cars go by, and on the other side of the road is a man someone call a predator being watched by a real predator

...

A long time ago, a nameless child sits in his bed, he doesn’t have any windows, but he sleeps like any other child

The end

Chapter 92: The secret of the nameless man

Chapter Text

Three men, two with names and one without, huddle around a fourth man who also has a name, not that he deserves it, he doesn’t deserve anything after work. He’s done to so many children.
“Mr. Murray could you give me my tools”, the one with the name that starts with an M ask the nameless man
instead of a spotlight, a movie fragment the nameless man is a part of a set, born into two loving parents, but soon to parents become a single father, and the nameless half of the twin boys has to look after he’s younger by a minute brother
The nameless man finds the bag of sharp instruments next to a shelf of preserved organs, those organs being the ones between a man’s legs, he shows no emotion to this site and keeps going on the task. He was instructed to making his way back to the table.
Him becoming an only child happens suddenly, it was doing a moment of distraction, he had a second to react to the truck bailing towards his brother, he knows he should feel sad for this loss, but he can’t, he couldn’t for his mother, and his father notices during the funeral that he can’t for his brother
“ are you sure I need to be here”, man with the name that starts with an S says, avoiding his eyes from the gang man on the table as he’s being cut open
“ don’t tell me you’re feeling sorry for this piece of garbage”, the man with the M name does not look at the s named man, continuing his macabre work, he gestures for the nameless man to give him a syringe of adrenaline, which he injects into the man on the table who begins to shake violently once more like he did when he felt the pain of being cut open
“ not at all it’s just.. does he have to be awake for this?”
“ he doesn’t deserve the mercy of anesthesia”
“If you say so Mike”, the s named man steps back when a spread of blood shoots out from the M named mad cunning out one of the table man’s lungs
The nameless man’s father lock him away deep, he says it’s for his own good, but somewhere inside himself in the name, this man knows his father is scared of his own progeny, he doesn’t have to be his boy won’t hurt him. He loves his daddy, well he knows he should, for now

“ Mr. Murray, could you please get my other tool?, The man with the name request, and the nameless man set upon another search.
The longer he stays down there the rest of the knowledge that he should love his father sounds true to him, but the thing is, he doesn’t feel anything for his father, not love, not hate, just nothing
He finds the other bag of tools near a book, when you bend down one of the books falls on his head, he rubbed his hurting head and looks down at the book, the tiger on the cover sparks a memory he should be horrified to a member, but isn’t
The day he’s liberated from the room deep below his house is the day he finally meets uncle William, his father never called him that but the man himself introduced himself as so, he remembers it so clearly, his father, struggling under the more muscular frame of a man who she has a face with the M named man, William looked bored while doing horrible things to the name father
And the nameless man felt nothing watching his father be murdered
uncle William guided him out of the room. He lived a lot of his life in, and to make up for it the name this man will do things for him

The nameless man returns to the table, handing the M named man the bag, it’s opened, revealing a taxidermy tools, and the m man search to work
The work the nameless man is set to do by William is he’s nothing too heinous, he does some victim learning with his uncanny ability to mimic voices, he mopped up many fluids, mostly blood, and bones things, it’s doing one of these burnings that his life is set back on the right path
The little black girl that sees him in the boat for means of some part of the fair bear brand mega mall, screams her lungs off, he does as he trained, tackling the girl, he’s just about to relight the lighter in the hand, not being used to hold down the girl, when more screaming comes his way
He’s not trained for this, some part of his messed up brain tells him he should feel fear in this moment, and for once in a long time, he sort of feels it
The basement he stands in now is cold like the jail or sale was, but he’s not the prisoner here, the man on the table is, well was he’s been given the freedom of death, and now he’s being preserved for a private collection
He looks at the two men with names, and think it’d be nice to have a name too, technically he does have one, but it’s a stupid name
Who named their kid Murray Murray anyway?
His departed father he reminds himself, he giggles a little, revealing the tooth gap he shares with both his father and twin brother
“ what’s got you all smiling murray”, the man with the m name say inquiries
“ I just thought of something funny, isn’t it kind of funny that our dad used to work together and now we do too”, the nameless man answers
“ yeah… that is an odd coincidence”, the man with the S name straightens his mouth in realization, “ and with all of the soul survivors of our siblings”, he adds
“ well at least we have each other, and you boys are brothers to me, no matter if it’s not really blood that us” the M man poison in his companions, there’s blood still on his gloves, the man grimaces at this fact
