WE ARE ONE

the word ' girlfriend ' makes jack's heart drop into his stomach & for a long moment , he could only stare on in complete & utter disbelief . his amber - coloured gaze almost desperately searches the others for some kind of answer , as if trying to gauge if krypt was just messing with him .

— or maybe , jack had been reading the signs wrong all along .

To   truly   love   another   person   is   to   accept   that   the   work   of   loving   them   is   worth   the   pain   of   losing   them.

And   in   time,   as   we   all   do,   she   admitted   all.   She   admitted   she   was   dead.

The  rooms  felt  larger  at  night,  as  though  the  house  itself  had  inhaled  deeply  as  the  sun  disappeared,  expanding  as  it  held  its  breath  for  the  morning.

It  was  an  emptiness  that  called  out  to  be  explored.

Though in truth,  her  first  look  at  [location]  yielded  no  discomfort,  no  foreboding.

People  are  superstitious,  especially  in  the  country.

So,  now  it's  a  story…  these  small  children  in  that  huge  house  with  their  dead  parents,  and  now,  their  dead  governess.

It's  okay!  You're  okay,  you're  okay!

I  cry  three,  maybe  four  times  a  day  around  here.  Five,  if  I'm  really  being  honest  with  myself.

I'm  going  to  start  counting,  and  it'll  be  your  turn  to  run  and  hide.  And  I'll  find  you.

She   would   sleep,   she   would   wake,   she   would   walk.

You   have   to   promise   me   that   you’ll   stay   in   your   room.   Don’t   leave   your   room   at   night.

It's   like   every   day   I   feel   myself   fading   away,   but   I'm   still   here.   I   don't   really   understand   how   that   is.

Nightly,   in   fact,   those   first   few   years,   a   dark   carriage   led   by   a   red-eyed   horse came to [location],  but he  was   denied   so   often,   in   fact,   that   Death   would   not   venture   there again.

You’re   slipping.   Stay   with   me.

She's   waiting.   And   at   some   point…   she's   gonna   take   me.

'Dead'   doesn't   mean   'gone'.

If   you   can't   feel   anything,   then   I'll   feel   everything   for   the   both   of   us.

People   do,   don't   they?   Mix   up   love   and   possession.   I   don't   think   that   should   be   possible.   They're   opposites   really:   love   and   ownership

You   know   what   life   is   really   all   about?   Keys.   See,   people   are   like   locked   rooms.   They’ve   all   got   different   locks   and   you’ve   got   to   guess   the   shape   of   their   key.

It's   scary,   I   know.   But   you   have   a   past,   and   you   have   a   future.   Now,   I'd   argue   you   can   count   on   both.

Any   of   us   could   die,   at   any   moment.   Or   we   could   forget   our   entire   lives,   which   is   like   dying.

This   memory   one   of   my   favorites.   I   don’t   find   myself   in   this   one   often.

One   day   at   a   time   what   we've   got.   It's   all   everybody's   got,   when   you   get   down   to   it.

He   has   spent   too   much   of   his   life   alone.

Where   would   we   be,   we   wretched   people   without   the   generosity   of   our   betters?   And   luck

Change   is   emergent…   by   the   time   one   realizes   it   has   arrived,   it   has   already   set   its   teeth.

From   here   on   in,   the   shadows   get   deeper,   the   nights   get   longer.

We're   heading   into   the   dark,   and   we   have   to   hang   onto   each   other.

You   said   it   was   a   ghost   story.   It   isn't.   It's   a   love   story.

Death   is   something   to   mourn,   not   fear. 

I   wouldn't   leave   without   you,   and   I-I   won't   leave   without   you   now.

All   things   fade.   All   things.   Flesh,   stone,   even   the   stars   themselves.   Time   takes   all   things.   It   is   the   way   of   the   world.

You're   right   there.   You're   right   there,   and   I   can't   even   touch   you!   I   can't   smell   you,   I   can't   feel   you.   It's   not   fair,   it's   not   fucking   fair!

There's   a   difference   between   feeling   good   and   feeling   alive.   The   two   aren't   always   the   same.

You   couldn't   see   me,   not   right   away.   I   had   to   figure   out   a   way   to   make   it   so…   so   that   you   could   see   me.

The   others,   they   say;   "stay   away   from   her."

The   beast   had   lurked   indeed,   and   the   beast,   at   its   hour,   had   sprung.

Everyone   is   exhaustive.   Even   the   best   ones.

The   living   must   decide   what   they   can   or   cannot   bear.

We   can’t   count   on   the   past.   We   think   we   have   it   trapped   in   our   memories,   but   memories   fade   and   they’re   wrong.

Toss   in   offerings   to   drive   away   evil   spirits,   bones   mostly;   build   a   pile   of   old   bones   and   burn   away   the   shadows..

The   world   is   fierce,   but   you   are   fiercer.   And   someday,   you   will   move   mountains.

I   wasn't   going   to   ask   you   if   you're   alright   because   I   don't   like   being   lied   to.   So,   what's   wrong?

It's   so   quiet,   it's   so   quiet,   but   she's   in   here.   And   this   part   of   her   that's   in   here,   it   isn't   peaceful.   It's…   rage.

Humans   are   organic.   We   are   meant   to   die.   It's   natural.   Beautiful.   And   it   all   breaks   down,   and   rises   back   up,   and   breaks   down   again.   And   every   living   thing   grows   out   of   every   dying   thing.

He   stayed   at   her   side   until   she   was   buried,   and   he   loved   her   the   whole   way.

I   have   this   feeling   like   I'm   walking   through   this   dense,   overgrown   jungle,  and   I   can't   really   see   anything   except   the   path   in   front   of   me.

But   I   know…   there's   this   thing   hidden   out   there.   This   angry,   empty,   lonely   beast.   It's   watching   me.

You're  all  going  to  die  down  here.

I  don't  deal  in  chance.

Just  one  bite,  one  scratch  from  these  creatures  is  sufficient.  And  then,  you  become  one  of  them.

Nothing  ever  changes.

Please,  I  wouldn't  wanna  shoot  you.  I  might  need  the  bullets.

I'm  not  sure  I  wanna  remember  what  went  on  down  here.

She's  only  trying  to  deceive  us...  confuse  us...  she'll  say  anything  to  stop  us.

The  T-virus  spread  through  the  air-conditioning  system.

She  was  right.  We  are  gonna  die  down  here.

We  found  a  survivor.

What  the  fuck  was  that?

When  we  cut  the  power,  we  unlocked  the  doors.  We  let  them  out.

I  don't  want  to  be  one  of  those  things…  walking  around  without  a  soul.

I  shot  her  five  times.  How  was  she  still  standing?

One  of  your  group  has  been  infected.

Blue  for  the  virus,  green  for  the  antivirus.

This  long  after  infection,  there  was  no  guarantee  the  antivirus  would  work.

What  are  they?  It's  pretty  goddamn  obvious  what  they  are.

Your  boyfriend  is  real  asshole.

Stay  conscious.  You're  going  into  shock.

She  bit  me,  man!  She  took  a  chunk  clean  outta  me.

It  brings  the  dead  back  to  life?

That  homicidal  bitch  killed  my  team.

The  subjects  have  the  simplest  of  motor  functions.  Perhaps  a  little  memory,  but  virtually  no  intelligence.

All  the  people  that  were  working  here  are  dead.

I'm  not  dead  yet.

Unknown,  even  to  its  own  employees,  the  company's  massive  profits  are  generated  by  military  technology,  genetic  experimentation,  and  viral  weaponry.

There's  a  cure!

The  T-virus  provides  a  massive  jolt,  both  to  cellular  growth,  and  to  those  trace  electrical  impulses.  Put  quite  simply,  it  reanimates  the  body.

'....Uh okay why? ' She asked the other her hand reaching out, before she knew it, Izuru's hand was flat against her own palm to palm and fingers to fingers, this caused Rangiku to look towards him. ' You okay? '

❝  huh  ?  what  the  hell  are  you  yapping  about  ?  what  do  ya  mean  you're  a  shinigami,  guardian  of  souls   ?  yeah  right.  are  ya  sure  ya  ain't  one  of  naraku's   𝐏𝐔𝐏𝐏𝐄𝐓𝐒  disguised  as  a  normal  looking  person  ?  ❞

perplexed , blue eyes studied the other man wearily for a long moment . it was strange , this man did not seem to be a hollow ( nor any other entity he had come into contact with ) , & yet . . was he not human either ?
