[ meanwhile, he's felt distinctly wrong at times after his death; the walls closing in, a quiet dread inside his mind he can't shake. sometimes, he looks at the bloodstain he left on the floor of his lab and almost feels it reaching back at him.

how lovely to know that that's just specific to him. ]

That is... fortunate. I am glad you had no lasting adverse effects.

cw: horrible coping mechanisms

[That's what the drinking and drugs were for! Thankfully Levi doesn't know so he can't offer his brilliant advice.]

I don't know if that's normal...I never really asked if anyone else has died or what happened.

oh levi...

[runeing]

Perhaps you should have.

[ like he is doing now, sort of... still. he tilts his head, almost owl-like, amber eyes fixed on levi. ] May I ask... what is it that claimed your life?

[solitarysoul]
