Credence wakes up somewhere that isnāt his bed. Credence wakes up in the middle of a goddamned field.
Thereās grass all around him, going on and on for miles; except for a large portion circling the place heās crouched on.
Under his back, the soil is hard and blackened. No strand of grass will ever breach it again.
Credence falls three times before finally managing to get back onto his feet. He pukes his insides out after the second time, feeling his stomach pulse violently.
Muscle spasming, he sets off on the road home, which is carved in the back of his eyelids like some kind of arcane manuscript. The Obscurusās black print.
ā¢ā¢ā¢
Percival drags him inside and shuts the door behind, hands a whirlwind, analyzing every inch of Credenceās body.
āI had a nightmare,ā Credence says, āIām sorry.ā
āDonāt apologize,ā Percival is doing his best not to scream. Credence knows itās out of worry and fear, he knows it, but thereās a part of his mind that tells him to run run run away before he can hurt you.
He doesnāt even realize heās crying until Percivalās arms envelope him in a fierce hug. The weight of his tears becomes too much then, lowering Credenceās head to the crook of Percivalās neck.
āShh, shh,ā Percival letās Credence cough and sob and slobber all over his shoulder, āItās alright, itās okay. Thatās it, thatās it, get it all out. Good boy.ā
Credence cries until his eyes burn, until his throat aches. The Obscurus has since retreated into him, but it feels as if itās still there, nipping at Credenceās flesh. Tearing him apart from the insides.
āJust. Just promise me,ā Percival says, against Credenceās mud-drenched hair, āPromise me youāll always come back home?ā
āMmhmf,ā Credence says.
Thatās enough of an answer for the both of them.

āIāve found you, Mr. Gravesāā¦.
I started this drawing months ago, and I finally finished it with newfound inspiration for Gradence. Can this please happen in the next movie though? I just want Graves back ):

Honestly
just bro things
meeting in dark alleys when you could magically transport your fellow bro anywhere or otherwise make sure no one sees or hears you
rubbing your bros neck, and cupping his face
your conversations getting described with terms like attracted, seductive, beguiling, inches away, and alluring
trailing your fingers along your bros face and shoulders
hovering your face centimeters from your bros ear
putting your hand over your bros heart
just generally being so heterosexual you cant be a foot away from your bro
