the beginning

finding bones (and a dead man)

 

There's no beginning, no end. 

 


 

i have to get away from here.

He's panting, fingernails scratching at the walls. He clenches his teeth as they rip and tear to the quick. There has to be a way out, he just knows it. 

sungyeol .

He hobbles on his stiff, rigid legs, clinging to the wall for support as he collapses on the ground, his bones clattering. He lies there as mice scurry to and fro, nibbling on the patches of hair decorating his skull. He’s been in here for too long, too long.

(where are you?) 

get me out.

His head is splitting apart at the seams. He can still remember the doctor’s words as his head split in two through the haze of anesthesia. Coronal suture, squamous suture, longitudinal fissure…

GIVE ME BACK MY BRAIN. 

There's a rancid smell in the air. It's too dark to see, but he’s pretty sure that another finger just fell off. 

(There's nothing there.)

Chapter 3: Yooooo, I'm kind of happy that I didn't read the epilogue in your draft because it ties the story together so beautifully! Getting to see some insight on Myungsoo/L's past made me feel more pity for his character, and I liked the emphasized relationship he had here with Sungyeol. A bit salty that mobile won't let me highlight the text above "and he crumbles into dust," so I'll pester you to tell me about it later. LOL.

I absolutely loved this. I missed reading your writing! ;3;

Chapter 3: SERIOUS HEADACHE. This is awesome yet scary at the same time. I tried reading this xxxxtra carefully but please excuse my dumb brain. The moment when I thought I get everything it suddenly got even more confusing. Okay Myungsoo is insane and L is his hallucination. Maybe. And he killed Sungyeol out of consciousness. Maybe. And the coffin resembles something like he was trapped in his own world and he couldnt escape. Maybe. I tried highlighting the decaying part but Im already losing my mind by now. Oh my insanity. (But seriously this is one hella awesome work. How did u write this?!)
