Deep breaths, deep breaths, deep breaths. You’re alive, your name is BigB, you’re a listener and your main residence is on a private server.
BigB shook his head. He knew who he was, so did he suddenly just… lose it?
Coughing broke the silence. He turned his head and saw Ren, hunched over and coughing like he was about to die again.
BigB didn’t have the energy to stand up. He looked at Ren.
Or, well, what had been Ren.
It wasn’t Ren anymore.
Just a huge eye, staring him down. It didn’t blink, and BigB didn’t dare to either. Silence followed, but can there really be silence when a giant eye is staring you down?
The eye narrowed. The purple iris flashed with different shades, making BigBs eyes hurt and he closed them.
He shouldn’t have closed them.
He knew he shouldn’t have closed them.
If there is one word that could describe what happened after, he would like to hear it. Mostly just felt like all your insides being torn out but through your mouth.
BigB flung his eyes open. There wasn’t one purple eye anymore, just about a hundred.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
He cowered back against the ground, curling up into a ball and closing his eyes again.
… what was his name again?
“You’re Tyniq,” a voice cut through the silence. “You know who you are.”
I know who I am. I know who I am. I’ve always known who I am.
But… no. My name isn’t Tyniq. Not anymore. What is my stupid name?
“Already told you. Tyniq.” The voice said again.
Stupid thoughts! Watchers can read minds!
“That you can remember.” The voice was closer now.
That I can remember.
Silence followed again. Whoever he was, whether his name was Tyniq or not, he didn’t know.
The silence was deafening. It must’ve lasted for years, because he could quickly not remember ever hearing sound.
Wings from his head. They must be some sort of instinct he didn’t know he had. The silence was even greater now, like some form of advanced hearing had come along and just made the whole situation worse.
It must’ve been a hand that grabbed one of the head-wings. What else could it be? A hand grabbed the other one too.
“Shouldn’t you be with us instead, Tyniq?” The voice came from nowhere, before the head-wings exploded into excruciating pain.
The greatest pain is removing that of what you live for.
