Summary
Gustave is brought back to life and he imprints on Verso like an animal /j
***
The first person Gustave sees when he returns, though, is not his foster sister Maelle, with her ginger ponytail and placid, grey eyes. It’s Verso, and like some animalistic freak he latches on to the man’s visage like a lifeline. Those grey eyes are seared into his vision like twin moons, and that dark, impossibly lush hair shines with the brilliant streaks of moonlight within it. He’s old, but not really. Older, and carries with him the experience of being elsewhere in the world.
“Who are you?” Gustave asks, and it’s like no one else exists in the world. Maybe Maelle answers. Maybe she doesn’t. But what Gustave knows is that Verso is someone he should take the time to get to know, however that process comes about. Gustave yearns, and for the first time in a long time, he listens.
