    Summary

    Slowly, your fingers trace the grooves of his face; scars, veins, and blemishes alike. "And what do they call you, sir?" You ask into the darkness.

    The man tenses under your touch, and enormous palms rise to grasp your hands, rough fingers grazing over your knuckles. "I do not have a name," he rasps, and by then, you must notice how otherworldly he sounds. "I do not need a name."

    Your brows furrow as your thumbs continue to follow along the deep lines on his cheeks, down his chin. "And what, pray tell, would you have me call you? Everyone needs a name."

    Perhaps, he thinks, I'd like for you to call me yours.

    Or, The Creature secludes himself in an abandoned manor many years after his father's death. He expects what his elongated life has already provided him—loneliness, disappointment, longing. He does not, however, expect you.

    Summary

    The hour was late, and the thought of disturbing her nagged with apprehension. Surely she didn't require his company, nor his consolation, when she had such a treasured, sororal bond with Neve. Yet he found himself taking the long walk down the corridor to her quarters nonetheless.

    'Perhaps reminiscing of home will offer a welcome distraction, if only for a short while.' He assured himself. 'A comfort that I am uniquely disposed to provide.'

    All thoughts of Nevarran eccentricities and their hopeful nostalgia halted as he arrived at her door. It greeted him with an alarming sound.

    Summary

    “Please,” he croaks, eyeing the creature wrapped around you, its corded arms holding tight to your waist and its naked chest pressed against your spine. The pyramid head stares silently back, its breaths echoing faintly from within its metallic shell. “Don’t do this.”
