Summary:

New Topic in URGENT: Stray Dogs are NOT to be Trusted (hyperlightdriftxer)

 

 

If you see a black stray dog, DO NOT APPROACH. You WILL get hurt. And probably fleas.

This is NOT a joke. I’ll repeat for all of you with clogged ears, do not approach the black dog. It will try to trick you. Knowing everyone here, it will succeed. I can’t stress how important this is.

Dont mess up.

Chapter Text

 

 

Something moves in the alleyway.

 

 

A phone skitters across cold concrete as it vibrates with an incoming call. No one picks it up. The silence that follows is choking, a stranglehold on every loose piece of trash suddenly too heavy to be pulled by a wind that carries the smell of salt.

There is no sea here.

There is no sea.

There is no dog.

Drifter shoves himself further behind the dumpster and tells himself this until he falls asleep.
