Christoph Rudenko, 12.12. 2008, Welbec house, Wandsworth, London. 

Christoph Rudenko lives on the ground floor of a five-story apartment building, and on the day he moved in he saw his upstairs neighbour (Toby Carlisle) smoking on the balcony. He caught a strange scent similar to pavement after rain on a hot day and off-chicken. Christoph got to know all his neighbours except for the man upstairs after a year, and only occasionally caught a whiff of that same smell, attributing it to hygiene issues. 

In 2004, Toby started hammering loudly on his walls and floor for about an hour at a time, which would happen once every two weeks. After 6 months of Christoph ignoring this behaviour, a package for Toby is accidentally delivered to his flat, so he goes upstairs to give it to him. The stench from the flat is overwhelming, and Toby snatches the package from his hand. Christoph noted that the wood around the door seemed “distressed” and was heavily stained. 

In late 2007, his mother’s health had started to decline and he tried to sell the flat to move in with her. A stain appeared on the roof, and he called a plumber in to check it out. It collapsed and poured out putrid smelling liquid and lumps of fat. 

Christoph charged upstairs and banged on the door, but found it slightly ajar. Inside the room, meat was hammered to every available surface except the closed windows in layers - with older meat having putrefied. Toby’s body is disfigured - covered in so many pockmarks and lesions that Christoph can no longer tell where his eyes are. He sees a huge pile of meat shift slightly before opening “all of its eyes”. The police arrived and removed the body and all the meat. He sold the flat and moved to Clapham, becoming a vegetarian. 

Notes: I think there’s strong evidence for dual relation of the flesh/the corruption - specifically because of the rotting aspect of things.  Martin is noted to be still “sick”. Potentially the asian man mentioned as one of his neighbours could be someone from the Han family? (just because it’s a flesh episode lol). Sasha and Tim worked on this. Martin is still off “sick”.

Entities: The flesh, the corruption
