Thoughts? Mr Kreiss?

"Mister Mesmer is.."

Oh, how could I ever describe him?

He used to haunt me, when I was a much.. much younger man. When I worked for the.. for the graveyard. For the asylum.

We met, then. He wasn't much younger than I, and my. I've never.. oh, Lord, I won't go on.

Here, he's just as I can remember. Maybe, maybe more.. scarred. In his voice, in his hands. His face is a web the way mine is; I wonder how long it'd take to trace it, if I never lifted my finger from the trail.

He trusts me, I think. I like to think, at least. He trusts me enough to touch him, to stitch without the numb. He trusts me enough to carry him off, thrown over my back.

I pray, each night, he figures me gentle; I pray, each night, he believes that I won't hurt him. He said he figured I was no monster, for he didn't fear me. I can only hope he keeps to that, and though he always has, I cannot help the way I fear.

We don't speak often, though I long to. Seldom.. seldom will anyone know it, for he's my best-kept secret; the Lutzmen will never figure, and neither will the manor's folk.

I fear the way I look at him, may the Lord forgive."
