[log] Comorbidity [closed]

Characters: John Watson, Death the Kid, Franken Stein, and Undertaker
Location House 58
Date: Night 171
Summary: This is a house with a lot of problems in it. Watson, Kid, and Stein run into Undertaker for the night.
Warnings: Possible talk of death, morbid discussions.

[A simple single-story building, the snow weighs uneasily on it, and it creaks and groans under the strain at the best of times. It's very dark, and only the kitchen and living room are intact. The kitchen has a back door. Two snowmen have been built outside. A message has been written on the wall in blue ink: "Don't wreck the snowmen! That's super mean!" "ALPHONSE ELRIC, MAMI TOMOE, FREYA CRESCENT, GREED, EDWARD ELRIC, STEPHANIE BROWN, DAY FORTY ONE, TRAVELLING EAST." has been carved into one of the walls. The following has been written on the wall in blue pen: "This is Building 95 97 on the composite map. Contact @CaptSteveRogers for details." Underneath this is a fairly accurate map showing the house in relation to the school and buildings 29, 35, 35, 37, 40, 41, 47, 48, 50, 53. House 34 is labeled "Medical assistance; hot, clean water. Contact Dr. Epps @claytonator". The school is labeled "School. Food available in cafeteria; DO NOT STAY HERE OVERNIGHT." The shed is labeled "Shed".]

I was created from a piece of Death's soul.

[Kid's expression has not changed, jaw set.] That is how it is possible.

[Suddenly, Undertaker leans in uncomfortably close. He doesn't make a move to touch the other, but his face is only a few inches from bumping noses. The reason for the unexpected move isn't entirely clear, but he seems to be looking at Kid very intensely even if his eyes are shadowed.

Which, from this close and in this darkness there's the slightest hint of color behind the silver bangs. But it's gone when Undertaker abruptly moves back again and resumes his lazy sit.]


I think you're bluffing. [Actually, he doesn't doubt that Kid's telling the truth, but he doesn't want to believe it.]

[To Kid's credit, he doesn't move when Undertaker leans in. His golden eyes focus intently on the other, meeting the sliver of color he can see behind the bangs without wavering. His breathing gently ruffles the hair on his head, disrupting the oddly-placed stripes.

When Undertaker sits back, Kid remains stock still.]


Believe what you will.

[Stubborn. He's actually a bit impressed that Kid holds his ground. But he still acts like he shrugs it off.]

Guess we're at an impasse. [Flopping back again, he rolls onto his side and pulls his pack beneath his head. Apparently he's going to try for sleep again.]

Certainly. I wouldn't profess to be something most would fear in a place where people are already suspicious of strangers.

[Kid watches Undertaker flop back, quietly rifling through his bag and placing the last container of milk beside the man.]

...my apologies for throwing that carton at you earlier.

[He doesn't wait for a reply, getting to his feet and taking his backpack with him as he moves towards where Stein is sleeping.]
