I breathe in the atmosphere;
Let it take me out of here.
I won't live life in the rain

Waiting for the sky to change.

Landing on more trash, the momentum carried him further down the slope - gasping and groaning all the way, until he eventually ended up sprawled out across the floor of an area in the scrapyard relatively free of trash, the piles surrounding it like mountains encasing a valley.

"It HAS to be here...!"

His voice echoed across the wasteland of the scrapyard he had chosen today. It wasn't uncommon for the spindly individual, dressed in nothing but bandages, rags and a ballistic mask to pilfer scrap. ->

Gasping for breath despite the relatively simple physical activity, Scrapstick stood up straight to stretch and rest for a moment - but as his feet shifted below him, a set of filth gave way and caused him to slip. Unceremoniously, the netrunner fell backwards with a scream. ->

Not that it mattered - he had a feeling that she would be able to catch up effortlessly, were he to try and escape.

Drawing in a rattling breath, Scrapstick slowly lowered himself into a crouching position, lowered his head and awaited his end.

He'd heard the screams long before he had tracked the gunshots to the scene of the fight, and by the time he arrived, it was already over. It was a massacre.

As Scrapstick stepped over shredded corpses and puddles of blood ->

"The Wolf has come." the man groans out behind Scrapstick, breathing his last as his arm slumps to the ground. But Scrapstick doesn't hear him - not over every fiber in his body screaming at him to run, while his head can't help but continue to stare at the armed woman. ->

It hurts to remember.

Why does it hurt to remember?

And why doesn't he know the reason it hurts?

The air smelt funny tonight.

Not that it was clean, it had /never/ been clean for as long as he could remember.

But something was off. Something wrong.

And he couldn't figure out whether feeling like this, or not knowing what happened, was worse.

Another flicker, this time inside his own field of vision. A headache was rapidly starting to build, pressure in his skull mounting.

"I d-don't know you."
Yet he was actively backing away from her. He had ever been scared, but why did the sight of her invoke such 𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘳𝘰𝘳?

“I’d say my full name, but you wouldn’t know that. You’d be more familiar with Miss Fujaraki.”

She said watching him.. not flinching at all.. a cold star and blank face as his hand reached for her.. as if she knew he’d do nothing.

“Satisfactory?”

[𝔾𝔼𝕀𝕊𝕋 𝕀ℕ 𝕋ℍ𝔼 𝕄𝔸ℂℍ𝕀ℕ𝔼. @SCRAPSTICK_]

There's a flicker on his screen and a spasm in his arm - it almost looks like he wants to lash out, the way his hand shoots up, only to be seized by his other one.

"W-who are y-you?"
Where before there was simply a stutter, now his voice is shaking.

[𝐏𝐞𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐫 🏳️‍⚧️🕷️ @DownUndr_Spider]

“Simple. Because they are trash.

Oh, Stephan. Look at you. What a mess you’ve become.”
