Finally working on some writing!!! Here's a little wip. As a treat. And also because there's a high chance I might end up taking months to finish it/might never finish it at all! I'm feeding you scraps I'm sorry xD
Quick note tho! This is ANGSTY because I can't write anything nice. CW!!! for brief mentions of choking and somewhat vague allusions to Li Cu's fear of the dark!
She meant no harm but all he can see in the mirror is Him now. Wu Xie, Wu Xie, Wu Xie.
You'd think he'd be used to it. After all, when the fuck has Li Cu ever been allowed to be his own person?
But he hates it. No matter what he does, he can't escape the shadows of the people that came before him. Always having to be influenced by some power or another. Forced to fear the dark, forced to face it. Doesn't matter the circumstance, it still wraps around his ankles, his arms; coiling up his spine, tracing the shapes of his shudders until it can snare his throat and rip from him his own (pathetic) cries of fright, desperation and defiance.
All he's ever wanted is freedom. All he's ever given is binds.
