MAG 067 -- Burning Desire

How much must Elias have lost his entire mind when his new pet Archivist is telling him that he needs to know?

agnes montague & the beholding

She couldn’t have been more than eleven when she turned up, and didn’t really talk, other than to tell people her name if asked. Everyone just started to notice this child with mousey brown pigtails staring at them through the windows of Raymond’s house. As far as anyone could tell, that’s all she ever seemed to do - stare at people from the windows.

MAG 008 - Burned Out

And so the years passed and Agnes lived on in that old house. Hardly ever seemed to leave it, just watched from the windows.

MAG 008 - Burned Out

...when smoke was seen pouring out of the old Fielding house a week after little Henry disappeared, no-one did a thing. No-one phoned the fire brigade or tried to help. They just watched.

...when the man from the Children’s Committee came with the papers for Ray to sign, she was standing at the bottom of the stairs, watching me with an expression that looked almost playful.

MAG 059 - Recluse

But she was so beautiful. She, she was tall, with long, straight, auburn hair and these eyes that, when they looked at you, it didn’t feel like she was seeing you so much as was trapping you. I never understood the phrase “like a deer in the headlights” until she looked me in the eyes for the first time.

She never actually put any milk in it. She never even drank it. She’d just take it over and sit there, staring out the window into the street for an hour or so. It wasn’t like there was much of a view, just a normal street, and outside Sheffield city centre, that’s not much of a view at all.

He walked over and started saying something or other, cocky as anything. Agnes - though I didn’t know her name back then - just looked up and met his eyes. I could see him start to falter. Sweat began to roll down his forehead, but he kept talking. Then Agnes went to stand up.

It was only a very small movement, but the man started as though a gun had gone off, knocking into the table and spilling coffee all over his hand. It had been sat there almost 40 minutes, but I could see his flesh start to redden with burns where the liquid had touched it. He screamed, and suddenly all eyes were on him.

It was only after Agnes had left her undrunk coffee and headed out to wherever she went that I realized we’d never made any actual arrangements.

I spent the next day in a funk, kicking myself for having been so stupid...  About 3:00 in the afternoon, though, there was a knock on the door.

Standing on the other side was Agnes.

(note: the eye manifestation in the above bit is extrapolated from the way agnes knows jack barnabas’ address without him ever telling her where he lived. sure, there are other explanations - maybe she followed him home the previous day, who knows - but given the theme of this post, i thought it was worth including.)
