mr. crawling human au

as monster!mc is getting hunted down by the police and paranormal enthusiasts after her recent murder, she tries finding a hiding place to rest for the rest of the day, before she can safely return to the abandoned apartments. she admits, this murder was pretty damn reckless. but she was mad, okay?

as she was taking a breather by a quiet hospital, she hears the grass rustling.

weirdly enough, it didn’t sound like footsteps.

she turns around to find a curious long-haired boy on a wheelchair. mr. crawling asks her if she’s come by to visit anyone in the hospital. the mc says no and admits she’s only here to rest. he smiles and asks to hang out with her. he doesn’t mind her bloody crowbar or her red, scarred skin. he even thinks it’s cute! he’s really happy someone else finally came to this hospital.

he’s been confined for as long as he could remember. he could technically leave, but he didn’t have a family to go back to. he does have friends, though, like the hospital’s research assistant, mr. silvair, and mr. chopped, who is also confined, but cannot leave without assistance.

he begs the mc to be allowed to accompany her to wherever she plans on going, as he says he’s explored every part of this little corner of town so he can guide her in case she stumbles into unfamiliar territory. he can only go so far on his wheelchair, but he makes the most out of it.

the mc realizes she CANNOT go back because this KID is gonna follow her to her hideout, the place where she dumps her dead bodies, mind you. so she lets mr. crawling tour her around the hospital and his town (at least, the part he knows) to distract him for a bit. she can’t kill him now, not when she’s actively wanted.

he gets attached, quickly. he’s never had a friend outside the hospital before. the mc gets attached too. she tries learning his language, and he tries to learn hers. for the first time in her life, she didn’t want to hurt this human.

eventually, the police do stumble upon the hospital. they charge in, searching for the wanted serial killer/ghost/monster or whatever she is. the mc decides to leave for mr. crawling’s safety, but he musters up all the strength in his legs to stand up and push her to sit on the wheelchair. he protects her from the police by acting as her caretaker while she acts like the hospital patient.

he doesn’t care what she did. he doesn’t even bat an eye at the accusations the police throw at her. all that matters is that she stays with him. for as long as she wants to, of course. and that she does.
