[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

…who gives your arguments a fair hearing and then simply persists in his lunacy?”

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

“Why? I’m happy for you”.

He nods solemnly, tilting his head.

“You /do/ feel stronger, I’ll admit. Even if your talents are… misguided”.

[Major Lex Foster-MacNamara @WHATIFT0M0RR0W]

“Someone in my house had to be.”

She hasn’t taken her eyes off him, disdain and anger in her eyes, mixed with disgust from their first altercation, before Lex ever knew who the man in front of her was.

“Why do you care?”

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

He stares at him for a moment before bursting into laughter. It’s not happy.

“What a wounded puppy. You used to have a backbone”.

It’s a hateful deflection.

[John MacNamara @wear_a_watch_]

[He frowned at that, he nodded]

“Alright…”

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

His fist tightens.

“Do /not/ call me that”.

[John MacNamara @wear_a_watch_]

“I can be where I want to be, Wiley.”

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

—, long, long time, Miss Holloway. Why, you buyin’?”

He leans forward, hands in his pockets, and the pins in /his/ jacket catch the light.
He wouldn’t mind, getting to know her. See what she’s really like, under all that bravado. What would happen if they could get along?

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

It is /definitely/ common sense not to let your guard down with Wilbur in sight, but his posture’s relaxed, and he’s in no rush.

The question makes him smirk. It sounds so simple. Coffee. It’s been ages since he’s thought of food, of his own humanity.

“It’s been a long —

[Miss Holloway⋆𝄞⨾𓍢ִ໋ @HAPPYHOLLOWEANE]

“Like that would ever happen.”

She shakes her head. A pang in her heart tells her that perhaps she was being too aggressive, but it was quickly overcome by common sense and her aged survival instincts.

“When /was/ the last time you had a coffee, Wilbur?”

She tilts her head.

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

His smile grows wider, all teeth and no warmth.

“You shouldn’t be here, you know”.

[John MacNamara @wear_a_watch_]

“You…” [He placed a cigarette between his lips]

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

“Really? You’re supposed to be… all grown up? Better?”

His eyes briefly glance at the gun, but his expression doesn’t change.

[Major Lex Foster-MacNamara @WHATIFT0M0RR0W]

“I’m not a kid, Cross.”

She wasn’t in the mood to deal with him, hand on her gun. She had no intention of shooting yet, not that it would last anyway.

[ᅠᅠoh , who is 𝗵𝗲 .ᐣ @SINSFORSAKEN]

lost in the fog . . i fear there’s still further to fall . it’s dangerous ’cause i want it all — and i don’t really care what it costs .

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

Weak or small, huh? He can work with that.

He tilts his head, vaguely gesturing at Daniel’s.

“Got a headache? Something that just won’t quit? A little voice in your mind telling you you’re full of it?”

He whispers, as if telling a secret.

“It’s right, you know”.

[daniel @high_0nSpeed]

Daniel kept himself up with one hand and used the other to hold his head.

“Uh yeah something like that.. but how the hell do *you* know that…?”

He tried to stop himself from panting and his heart from beating rapidly. He didn’t want to look weak, or small.

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

“Woah, ho ho!”

Hands on his hips, he laughs.

“Look at you, kid! What a costume”.

[Major Lex Foster-MacNamara @WHATIFT0M0RR0W]

Glaring intensely. She’s in a PEIP uniform.

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

A brief glance.

A sneer.

“You”.

[John MacNamara @wear_a_watch_]

[he glared]

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

@KN0WST00MUCH // hahaha sorry! I got my SLs confused, please ignore that last tweet :P

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

“Hah! Money. It’s always the same with you, isn’t it?”

He’s not talking about her, of course. It’s the greed coursing through the world’s veins. It’s what doomed them in the first place.

He winks.

“Wouldn’t you like to be stronger? To stop being called a bother?”

[steph 🐆 @slauterr_]

Steph stared at the new items that had just appeared in his hands. How in earth-?

“Listen. If you want money, that’s not going to work.” She crossed her arms, backing away from him. “What kind of help do you mean…?” She asked now curious.

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

— but he can sense his master’s energy in this one.

“What is it? A headache? A thrumming hum inside your skull?”

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

He laughs. A booming, poisonous sound.

“Now, that’s a joke if I’ve ever heard one!”

Still, his fist clenches.

[Aiden Jaime MacNamara @KN0WST00MUCH]

“You’re important to him, that’s why.”

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

He doesn’t walk back, but straightens his body and raises his hands, all smiles.

“Woah, hey! I was just checking on you, pal. You seem to be… going through something”.

Clear eyes stare down at the kid, curious and piercing. He /can/ hear something. It’s barely a whisper, —

[daniel @high_0nSpeed]

—

“Back the hell up man!”

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

“Not sure what’s the point in talkin’ about me”.

[Aiden Jaime MacNamara @KN0WST00MUCH]

“You can’t be that surprised.”

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

The veil between dreams and reality was especially thin with Daniel, Wilbur thought, as he walked towards him. Looking down, he could feel the potential in him. The anger. It looked a lot like his own, once.

He crouches, stares. Plasters on a big grin.

“You okay, kid?”

[daniel @high_0nSpeed]

—
let a headache get in his way. At least that’s what he thought before he found himself in the fetal position, clutching his head.

The only thing he could make out through the pain was the figure of a man. A seemingly familiar man dressed in denim.

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

— be in /charge/ of your own life?”

He squints.

“I know you do. I know you want to be free, and for Hannah’s sake too. I can /teach/ you”.

[Wilbur ｡𖦹°‧ @aloyalunatic]

“You /can’t/ just be normal, Lex”.

He still doesn’t walk toward her, just looks at them with feigned understanding. As if he remembered what it was like, just… being a man.

“There’s no way out, but through. Wouldn’t you like to see the quickest route? Wouldn’t you like to —

[Lex Foster @smokeclubdealer]

@aloyalunatic some way to get away from all of this.

"There's got to be some way to get rid of all of this."
