devourthemfirst | Third Misfortune - [voice] - Backdated to Halloween night

[It’s Halloween night. Czes has never really been one to worry over celebrating Halloween, candy, dressing up in costumes, the works, but these past few days have been hectic and he needs some entertainment. Ghost stories is the best option he has though the story he has in mind is one he'd rather not discuss. But if he can get a few people scared from it, maybe it'll be worth it.

Not sure how people can't not be scared by it at least...

His voice is low, almost like he’s scared to speak too loudly in case the creature pops up behind him. Which he kinda is. It somehow wouldn’t be that big of a surprise to him if the Malnosso were that cruel to him]

Back in my world, there’s this legend. It’s of a red monster called the Rail Tracer. [The meaning of the word ‘monster’ is used to the fullest extent here.] It rides the rail tracks and follows trains in the shadows and they say that when anyone on board believes he’s real, he climbs on board and overtakes the train, murdering everyone on it.

[A beat] But I don’t think that last part is right. I think he just waits until the opportune moment… then [SMACK. His hands hit the table that the journal is resting on. He’s trying to focus on scaring others rather than himself] goes in for his kill.

The scariest part about this legend, is that it’s real. [No really, it’s real.] I didn’t think it was at first but then I saw the blood-covered monster with my own eyes once! [Saw him, was killed by him and was tortured by him. All in one night.]

I even saw him murdering the passengers. He would silently snatch them up from their cars and hold them over the tracks until they would get so close to the moving ground that their faces and limbs would be ripped right off! [His arm starts to tingle from the memory and he bites his lip for a moment. The memory is all too vivid, even after all this time. It haunts him still.

See, Czes is really telling his own story here. He was the one who got his hand and arm literally ripped off by that monster’s torture tactics. He isn’t entirely sure if anyone else got this treatment but it wouldn’t surprise him if anyone did.

He shudders] It was really scary…

[He bites his tongue to keep from arguing back that no, it doesn't matter. They'll never get anywhere at this rate.]

Obligation? Fine, I am "obligated," if you wanna put it like that. I'd say people who're obligated to each other can be called family.

[There's a sigh in his voice. He's starting to get annoyed again]

Call what relationship you think we have "family", then. I should know better than to argue with someone as thick headed as you.

Just remember it does not make us any closer than we are now.

Thick headed!? You're bein' just as stubborn as me!

[He sighs heavily. There's a question he's been wanting to ask for a while and now, he decides, is as good a time as any.]

What's your problem with me anyway?

[Yes but he likes being stubborn just to annoy you, Firo]

You're stupid, for one. [Trolol]

Damn it...

I'm bein' serious, Czes.

And so am I. [Except he's not which may be obvious by the grin]

I don't have any problem with you aside from your idiocy.

I'm not an idiot! I told you before not to say stuff like that.

I'm just telling you what you wanted to know.

I wanted to know why you act like I got on your bad side, not whatever insults you wanna throw at me.

You annoy me sometimes, that's all. Haven't I said this before?

You've said so. I don't see why--

[Why doesn't Czes want to try being family if Firo's worst offense is being annoying? Czes won't answer if he asks, he realizes that much.]

Fine. Think what you wanna think. It's not like you don't annoy me too.

[And he'd be right about that. Czes doesn't try to pick up where he left off and just keeps going with this]

I'd be surprised if you said that I didn't annoy you. [His efforts would've all been for nothing since he purposefully tries to annoy him sometimes.]

[Firo, still thinking that it's an insult to Czes, grumbles:]

Sometimes it seems like you try to.
