Elysha; - Infection - 07-27-2016 I'm rotting inside
Did father care about her enough to suspend her in a void? Was he protecting her from something? Is there something about Elysha that reminds father of his rendezvous with an angel? infection @[hanna] Because who doesn't love a family reunion? xP RE: Elysha; - Elysha - 08-09-2016 i tried to be your picture perfect girl, but you were in your own fantasy world.
Did their father care about anything? Who was he, even? It seemed the magician king had come and gone as he pleased- phased through moments of miraculous humanity (was that one of the times he had suspended Elysha so carefully?), and then tethered back down into the murky depths of the being he was. Perhaps it was a fit of folly, weaving Elysha into a web of time simply because he could. Perhaps it was because she had been the only truly beautiful thing he had made – everything else seemed to have fallen away into monsters and magic (yes, Infection, that’s where you settle). Perhaps it was because the closest thing to human that their father had become was when he had found Moose (however disastrous and unstable it had been). Maybe suspending Elysha was his last attempt to hold on to that hope that he too, was something with a heart. What if Infection had known? What if the monster knew that his entwined heart had been held limp in the tangles of time – would he have saved her? Would it have made him, too, more human- knowing that the delicate half of his soul was at his side, knowing that he was the reason for her rescue? By now, it seems far too late (or had it always been far too late?). Once, long ago, the golden girl had been the tether to the black monster. Even as children, it was she who called to him Infy, Infy – please don’t leave me. - and the monster (though not yet fully a monster) would break away from the sirens call of shadows to come to the little angel’s side. It was the monster who sneered and gnashed at predators that followed their tracks, as the two wandered without their parents. It was always he who did the dark and daring deeds, and she who followed him blindly- trusting that he would know the way, that he would get them out. It seemed that they were so much alike in their parents – how had that happened? How had Elysha mimicked their mother’s DNA, and Infection their father’s? If it weren’t for the DNA aching in their bones, no one would think that the angel and demon once curled together like commas. How had they strayed so far apart? Or perhaps, Elysha too, would have turned into a monster – perhaps Eight knew. Perhaps that is why she was flung so far from the world. It is dark and quiet in the woods, and the golden girl has finally stilled her breathing, finally gotten her legs underneath her, finally accepting that she is in a strange world once again. And then, he is there. Her heart leaps to her throat, her primal instincts firing. The latter is telling her to flee from this fanged and foul monster before her. But the former is her heart recognizing, realizing, that this thing before her is her other half – her protector (or what is left of him), her lighthouse in the dark (who is now the dark), her Infy (who is now infectious with death). Her name smells like death as it rolls out of his mouth, and her skin tenses with chills as she runs himself down her. He has held his same movements, slick and oily, serpentine like in it’s way. “Infy…” She pauses, the word feeling foreign in her mouth – how could the kindled nickname of Infy still hold to this… creature before her. “..Infection.. Where have you been?” She knew not where she was, how she had gotten here – but she knew this man before her (right?).
