I don’t know why I decided to come back to this thing

Maybe I needed a break from watching the US tear itself apart. Between that and the global pandemic, maybe Kelevra won’t have to worry about destroying the world, because it will already have been done for him. On the other hand, things have been mostly quiet here, except for Wolf’s “art projects”. I guess she really liked how the first two came out, because she made more. Some of them even came to us on their own. I guess they didn’t read the post about the other idiots who came here looking for protection. Either that or they thought Wolf might have changed her mind for some reason. I’m used to rolling with the crazy shit by now, but it is still a bit creepy to have them wandering around like that.

Those guys aren’t the only ones that Wolf’s been working on either. I opened the door to the ritual room one day, only to see that she had torn off her fingers. They were dangling off her hands by what looked like a bunch of threads. I ran my thumb over the stump where my pinky had been and asked what the fuck she was doing. She glanced at me with a smile and told me not to worry. Her fingers started to move and curl while those threads started to lift them up. It was like they were natural to her, like she was just moving a normal human hand. She looked at them for a minute before the threads retracted, pulling her fingers back to her hand and sewing themselves on.

Wolf has been spending even more time in that room. Aside from mutilating herself, she sits in there, looking at the spot where she came back. She has gone from feeling around that space to sniffing the air like an animal every now and then. I’ve asked her about it but I’m not going to tell you what she told me. It’s a long shot anyway.  

Fell and I have still been keeping our skills sharp. Her aim has improved a lot during the time we’ve been here. I guess she’s used to only having one eye by now. We’re trying to be as prepared as we can be for whenever one of the grinning assholes decides to come after us.

Oh, and we haven’t seen that kid in a long time. I don’t know what happened to him. If he is still alive, then he made a smart decision in not coming back.

I guess that’s everything.

  1. Ha ha ha "destroying the world", good one Harty, that was a good one, gave me a good chuckle. I mean, if I were my living self, you wouldn't be wrong in assuming that my ultimate goal would be the nuking of the world, however, these days I tend to think in broad-strokes

    I am happy to hear that Knitty is still occupying herself artistically, despite the changes she seems to be exploring.

    Speaking of which, tell her, I am more than willing to help her "explore" her "changes", I believe my input would be of the utmost value, we'll have to do lunch.
