anyways. one thing alain does in order to make his crimes stand out among other crimes that occur in the gutter + saint-caen is kind of make the scene look theatric, very similar to the way st*fano v*lentini of the evil within 2 fame does. the suspended blood splatter is so important, i cannot stress that enough. “but mari, how do they suspend the blood?” great question <3 they solidify the blood via manipulating the matter in the person’s body via technical hydrokinesis via weird god bullshit. hope that helps!

get out of my way . i won’t tell you again .
that wasn’t supposed to happen .
can you keep a secret ?
i don’t know what i did to deserve you .
you seriously think i could’ve done something like that ?
you’re safe with me .
sorry isn’t good enough .
where is all this coming from ?
who told you about that ?
sorry i’m late , i got caught up .
you’re being paranoid .
why are you looking at me like that ?
you’re the single most important thing to me .
all i’m asking is that you hear me out .
whatever they told you , it’s a lie .
we shouldn’t stick around here .
hold my hand , i don’t want to lose track of you .
[ name ] … truth or dare ?
i love you . nothing’s gonna change that .
can you tell me what happened ?
you can’t come around here anymore .
back off , okay ?
what , you don’t have time for me anymore ?
you’re asking for too much .
i’m trying to start a new life .
what do you mean , you aren’t coming back ?

really funny , you’re very mature .
you call THAT a PLAN ?

i thought things would be different .
this is not up for debate !
do whatever you have to do .
karma’s going to get you for that .
it could’ve been a lot worse .
i asked you to leave me out of this .
maybe it’s time to take a leap of faith .
i never want to see you again .
can you see how many fingers i’m holding up ?
i’m gonna be there when you get what’s coming to you .
you’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me .
i’ve been waiting all night for this .
i told you not to contact me .
sometimes i really think you have a death wish .
what do you need ? — what can i do ?
i would do literally anything to keep you safe .
that was supposed to be a secret .
you haven’t called me that in years .
stop telling me to calm down !
we make a pretty good team .
i have so much i want to say to you .
i’m not going to let anyone hurt you .
can we please not do this right now ?
wait , wait … just breathe for a second .
how are you holding up ?
why don’t you stay the night ? i’ll take the couch .
i don’t need your protection !
you’re not making this easier on yourself .

i’m supposed to be protecting you .
i will kill you if i have to .
do whatever you have to do .
this is going to hurt , i’m sorry .

i’ve been having weird dreams .
so you’ve been lying to me this whole time ?
are you trying to get us killed ?
this is the worst thing that’s ever happened to me .
i never asked for your help .
you’re being followed , pretend you know me .
why has it started to feel different with you ?
don’t worry , i have a plan .
i heard everything .
do you need to sit down ?
i have the right to know what’s going on .
i’ve just gotta catch my breath .
stay out of my business .
what did you think was going to happen ?!
don’t cause a scene .
tell me something about you that i don’t know .
can i buy you a drink ?
what if … we played spin the bottle ?
this was never a problem until [ name ] came around .
you can’t ask me to make that choice .
are you seeing anyone right now ?
i need you to listen to me , we don’t have long .
you’re lying , that doesn’t make any sense .
you look … stunning .
what are you trying to prove ?
who died and made you the boss of me ?
you can’t just show up here like this .
let me make it up to you .
there’s no way i’m leaving you like this .
can we stay like this ? just for a little longer .
i don’t need you to fight for me .
so … you lied to me ?
you’re the only one that can help me .

another thing about alain is that he went through such great lengths to make people think he’s dead And to change their appearance enough where they aren’t immediately recognizable. like!!! this is the guy who befriended a mortician / funeral director who conveniently uses thaumaturgy as necromantic magic and convinced this guy to alter a dead body enough to make it look like him. and then they deliberately scarred their own face to throw people off. then they proceeded to not show their face in saint-caen for the next two years
he’s a light sleeper by nature. weeks spent in a narrow cell, days spent without sleep due to the callous nature of the prison guards ensuring he never had a moment of respite, the constant hum of prison life— it had turned him into a cautious creature, always anticipating the worst. the slightest things stir him awake, now: sounds from the outside / sephtis working their late nights, rummaging around downstairs in search of formaldehyde and methanol / even small footsteps, barely audible among the oak panels. although alain isn’t startled awake, their awareness is spontaneous.
they groan quietly, pulling an exposed leg under the covers and into the warmth, curling slightly into themself. in their drowsiness, they pay the sound of encroaching footsteps no mind, and they only open their eyes when they hear the quiet creak of their door opening. a hand rubs at their eye, the other pushes themself up so they are sitting upright. illuminated by the dim glow of a hallway light, he hears a familiar voice:
@DEVOLUSION, SYLVIE: ❝ p — papa? ❞ sylvie murmurs, stumbling into the room— her nightgown wrinkled and her eyes lined with red. she fidgets in the doorway, small fingers worn red at the edges. ❝ papa, can i— sleep in y-your bed? i— it's okay, if i— c-can't. ❞ apologetic for needing anything. apologetic for being. ❝ i had a— a bad d-dream. ❞
❝ oh, sylvie... ❞ lucidity murders his drowsiness and immediately, he rouses. without saying another word, alain moves close to the wall in order to vacate room in the bed. a hand pats the empty space, urging her to it. ❝ it’s fine. you can sleep here tonight. ❞ they wait for her to crawl onto the mattress, moving further back so that she could have her own space. despite the absence of light, his vision has adjusted to the darkness enough to discern the traces of tears among her eyes, knows the tone of her voice too well to dismiss it as just any other nightmare. ( as if bad dreams could ever be dismissed. ) his heart softens at the realization, aching. hurting.
( if only he could take the nightmares away from her, if only he could remove the pain. just another thing he can’t save. )
❝ bad dreams, huh? ❞ they say, voice hoarse from a deadened sleep. ❝ i’m sorry. i know how it is. ❞ he may not be able to save her from nightmares, but he can at least give her a shoulder to cry on, lean on. a hand reaches out for the covers, tucking her in, ensuring her warmth for the night. ( the comforter they have may not be big enough for the both of them, but if they have to suffer a cold, sleepless night in order for her to rest easy, then so be it. ) ❝ would you like to talk about it? it’s okay if you don’t. ❞

one real fucked up part of curdain worldbuilding that i made is that a lot folks who reside in the gutter (basically saint-caen’s undercity where they push all of the poor people into) are only allowed to emerge to the surface of saint-caen (the capital of curdain) without a pass when there is a trial being held. people from the gutter will literally line the halls of the court just so they could witness the trial proceedings. thinking about how so much of saint-caen’s culture and entertainment relies on criminality and how the court has become something like a theater rather than an institution dedicated to exacting justice. also thinking about how fucked up alain’s trial was with this in mind, especially since the monets were the only family that the gutter truly adored. people that alain knew in childhood and adolescence condemned him just like the nobility did. no noble or commoner had his back; his condemnation was sealed on both sides. their trial was fixed and set—alain’s death sentence was inevitable, regardless of where the jury hailed from.
