nocturne;

Two fingers were held up in front of his face when he finally got round to facing him. Two. Fingers. For a moment there, Cyrus was confused as to what that could possibly mean. How was he to know how a freaking killer thought? How was he to read and know what was on  a murderer’s mind?

            “Oh shit —”

He had the gall to look timid just then, eyes half-lidded as if to look not at all intimidating— a striking contrast in comparison to how the other man looked no matter that he was a head shorter. How did he do that? How could this man look so scary and dangerous?

Once the hand was removed, he cleared his throat and slowly fixed at his collar to suppress any possible fit; not that he hesitated because he was scared, but because he didn't want their cover to be blown just yet.

Aggravated tone mixed with anger, though he notices that the other suddenly sounded an octave higher when he spoke, his head snapped to the side to make eye contact once again. He lifts an accusing finger to point it over at him, teeth bared together. It was hard to bring him back to normal once he was in one of these moods. 

      ‘ wow! i’m like, a hotter version of you. ’

"Yes but, would you care to explain the process of getting a character to ‘leave the screen’?" For a brief moment, it was silent, until Mark had finally concluded with, "Now that’s a secret I’m going to have a die with.”                                                                   █▓▒░░

It initially started as a twitch followed by an audible stream of static. The music that chimed throughout the opening screen came to an abrupt stop before cutting to black. At this point, it’d be easier to believe that the game itself had crashed all together, probably leaving some internal dents the system. However, out of a blue, a voice arose.

                                                               Alice?                                                                   Are you there?  

Before the screen that divided both the game and the player, a boy appears, one with a glint in his eyes, standing before a white background. He peers at the screen with a radiant features, instantly recognizing the face presented to him. “Are you.. really back?”

       ❛You're pretty old -- I guess it's about time I buy a new laptop.❜ He concludes in defeat, hand brought to the back of his head to rub idly. Four years with the same device, overused late at nights for projects, or lately for work since he got a job -- it must have done its best already. 

                                       ｓｈｕｔ  ｄｏｗｎ．

        The device remains on, the screen glows, causing his eyebrows to furrow in surprise. Stupid game, did he catch a really bad virus? Approaching with the intention to press over the turn on / off button, the following event was completely unexpected. A sudden figure appears and he falls back on the mattress in surprise.  What in the world--? Lips parting and closing, only an 'eh' manages to slip as he registers the image before him. A hologram?

     ❛You're -- not real, are you? I had no idea technology advanced this far.❜ Was his comment after a while, completely ignorant to the addressed question.

Too caught up in gawking at the bloody crime scene before her, she failed to notice the male making his way past her, yelling for her to move away from the location. Taking his words into account, she complied to his orders, not wanting to experience another night in jail. Though with a situation like this, Minzy doubted a night behind bars would be deemed punishable for murder.  Averting her gaze away from the bloody incident, sharp eyes caught sight of a crimson color staining his left cheek, but before she could get the chance to observe the discovery any further, he moved past her in a hurried fashion.
