they hear nothing over the rising static — a cacophony of noise that starts as faint as a whisper & rises to an overwhelming crescendo. they see his mouth move, but they do not hear him speak. he is more flesh than human, more blood & bone & sinew than he is a person that lives & breathes — death strips the skin & makes them bear witness to everything that lies underneath. all that they can never unsee, never unhear ; all of them an amalgamation of gore & borrowed time. they can never stop it when it happens, this ebb & flow that shares no difference from the tide under the pull of the moon. it’s slipping, their mind is slipping away, & they can hardly recognize that the world is starting to disappear with it. the eyes of their mask do little other than stare, black creeping around the edges of stark - white — the air chills, it suffocates. it threatens to cage them in . . . . . before she pulls them back far enough to make them remember the moment that they’re in. the world comes back. the droning stops. they take a breath, close their eyes & reopen them again. they see him this time, but — nothing is still heard. their gaze diverts, voice quiet, apologetic. ❝ sorry — sorry. did you . . . . . . did you say something ? ❞
