At least... I could dream?

ON A 

nothing’s gonna hurt you, baby

> chapter 1, in which you meet for the first time on scarred, suffocated earth

Pairing: Reader/Nero Rating: M, subject to increase Warnings: Canon-typical violence, swearing Summary: You’re a human devil hunter with mysterious “superpowers.” Not a witch. Not an alchemist. Not a hybrid. No one knows where your lightning comes from; humans, after all, are merely that.

But you know. And it’s a secret you’ve been keeping for nearly 15 years.

Where once there was a grassy field now stretches desolation. Cracked earth exhales the scent of char, and ash glimmers like falling snow through the asphyxiated air. You stand at the precipice of a cavern, its yawning mouth swallowing sunlight deep into its belly, and burrowed into this cavity is said to be a draconian demon that has been laying fiery waste to a town beyond the mountains. The villagers claim it’s a wyvern.

You know it’s a devil.

As the cool breeze catches your hair, you close your eyes. You reach into the corners of your mind and touch the rippling power that thrums out of sight. You envision the crackle of electricity and taste the burning wire. It sparks. Like the comfort of a weapon, it eases the anxiety wedged between your shoulder blades, and with the swell of confidence it offers, you poise yourself and listen to the chasm at your feet.

You’re met with resounding silence; it seems you’re the first to arrive.

Good, you think. You hate competition.

“Make this an easy win for me,” you tell the jagged shadows.

Our vacation. [ Jill x Carlos]

Carlos is gone, to himself.
