Starving

Summary:

Except that’s not the right word. Not intoxicating, but appetizing. Delectable in an impossible way like the pull of magnets separated by hand, and Danny salivates at the lively warm glow of the green waters below.

Work Text:

It smells intoxicating.

Except that’s not the right word. Not intoxicating, but appetizing. Delectable in an impossible way like the pull of magnets separated by hand, and Danny salivates at the lively warm glow of the green waters below.

Something in his core desperately craves it, and he’s aware, suddenly, of the deathly cold hunger within him ever since the accident. Once easy to ignore, and now impossible to resist. Not when he’s this close and getting closer, starving for life ever since his death.

“Danny, don’t-” someone screams, voice unrecognizable as he leaps forward and plunges into the pit.

Notes:

In my new attempt to kick my Writer's Block shit in, I've hastily decided to try the DP/DC Week 2022 to see if it helps.

Story inspired by: Realizing I never wrote anything with Ghost Hunger before, a different take for the "Lazarus Pit and Ectoplasm being similar" thing, and me losing my mind about Writer's Block.
