[log] we wear red so they don't see us bleed [closed]

Characters: Royce Melborn, Alfie Solomons
Location: Building 141
Date: Day 242, morning
Summary: Both boys are monsters, figuratively and literally.
Warnings: Body horror, possible gore, warnings for other things in subject headers

141: A post office, long-abandoned. There are a few empty white plastic bins where mail was once piled up, and the lobby area is still remarkably clean and polished. The back area isn't locked, so if you like you can go through the back and see the office with its locked safe and the back door that leads to the downtown area. Trees, impossibly tall men, and lots of Ⓧs have been drawn on the walls, along with ball-like things that are made up of tentacles and beaks and death and one circle in green crayon that's been scribbled over in charcoal.

Royce. I don't feel guilt over very much, mate, but this--

And I fucked it up, right, and I do not fuck these things up. I won't accept more blame than I'm do, but I won't accept less, either.
devoutish: (put your money where your mouth is)

SCREAMS that should have been "more blame than I'm due" fucking homophones

What can I do for you?

Yeah, I'll stay with you. Don't worry, mate. I'll--

There's nobody else I want to travel with.

[And it's true. Maybe for a few days at a time here and there, but long-term? Anyone else would drive him crazy, he thinks.]
devoutish: (this is my last year of trying)

Let's hope you come back, then, eh? We can look after each other.

[Alfie knows he can't try, because there's nothing he can do to affect the outcome either way. But still, it's nice to hear.]

Sleep well, mate. Royce. I love you, yeah?

[He leaves the tablet running, but not because of her. It's hard to tell if Royce is dead, asleep, or just not talking, so just in case, he'll keep the feed open - even when he doesn't hear back for hours.]
