004 :: How to save a life (death trigger warnings)
[ Rest had not come easy for 808 -- trying to fill the gaps in his mind was both tiring and frustrating. It didn't help that the other denizens of the place had begun to find themselves in differing levels of hysteria, but something told him to keep his calm and not to give in...
Only to find, after a restless sleep, a figure lying face down on the floor. 808 doesn't know this person, but seeing the lavender hair (perhaps it's just the color?) momentarily gives him a sense of peace and comfort. He might have even seen him around the inn. Wondering though what this person might be doing in his room, given they all have their room assignments, he reaches out -- ]
Um, excuse me but I think you've got the wrong room-- ?! [ -- to touch the shoulder of a cold body. He tries to move the person, to have him face up to see if there's something he can do, but he finds to his horror that what he is holding is not a slumbering person, but a corpse. Regardless, he tries, stubbornly, to shake him awake. ]
Oi-- wake up! Wake up! This isn't your room you have to-- you have to go back!
[ Panic setting in, 808 brings a shaky hand to the person's chest, as if expecting something to happen -- like a glow would come out of his hand, and that the person would miraculously open his eyes. The lack of response suddenly makes him upset, to the point that he feels that his still-beating heart had been wrenched from his chest. Not completely understanding as to why he is upset, why he isn't thinking of doing something rational like calling for help, and the frustration over such pile on him. ]
Open your eyes, please. Wake up! Get up, just-- please!
[ Tears well up in his eyes as desperation marks his voice -- this person is wearing the same kind of clothing he is and even bears the same marks on his forehead. They might be related, they might be strangers, 808 doesn't know but all he knows is that he wants to this person awake -- alive. ]
Don't do this... come back...
[ Words come through 808's lips over and over again -- wake up, please, open your eyes, wake up, come back... -- as fear, sadness, loss, anger and loneliness overwhelm him. In the chaos, the litany of words come like an eerie mantra through the thin walls. In the middle of the room, 808 is on his knees as he holds the dead body against him, and tears come unbidden. He doesn't know, nor does he care if others can hear him, all he knows is that he will do anything in his power to bring this person back. Right now however, 808 just wanted to hold him, as if letting go would be too much to bear ... ]
(( OOC: Pardon the tl;dr, but here you have Kiran holding what is undoubtedly Mu's "corpse" as a physical manifestation of his greatest fears. Snap him out of it? |D;; ))
