❛ do you like it when i bleed for you? ❜ @carvedeeper

she shouldn't. she knows she shouldn't. but this is her world now: the blood. the fear. the darkness, and him. always him. in their old life, she never would have dreamed of hurting him; here, though, wounds are temporary and death is undone as easily as it is dealt. how many times has she perished on the blade she now holds in her hand? how many times has she been his offering, his sacrifice? it's not that she wants to hurt him—even in her most hopeless hours, when he was gone and the police just kept questioning, when she sipped the poisonous belief that he'd left her behind for good, she hadn't wanted to hurt him. what she wants is to be as close to him as she can, and, as he'd said: this will better help her understand him.

with her free hand, percy cups his face, brushes her thumb across his cheekbone, and makes up her mind.

it shocks her, how easily the knife slips into his abdomen. percy searches his face his reaction, cataloging every shift in expression as her heart pounds so hard she can feel it in her throat. she considers pulling the knife out, but before she can move danny's hand covers her grip, pulling her closer. her breath catches—half from the warmth of his blood seeping onto her fingers, and half from how he leans in until their lips are just touching. not a kiss, just an intermingling of ragged breaths. she slides her hand back from his cheek until her fingers are threaded in his dark hair and her thumb is resting on the hinge of his jaw. do you like it when i bleed for you? he asks, barely a whisper, and in response a soft sound catches in her throat. part of her wants to look, see how he's stained her hands the way she's stained his, but the rest of her just wants to stay like this.

"yes," she answers, and drives the knife a little deeper. just so she can hear the noise he'll make, remember it next time he presses the steel to her throat. nobody else can do this to him, she thinks, a realization bordering on religious ecstasy. "danny..." she breathes his name like a prayer, her hand slipping from the hilt of the knife to rest beside the wound. "now you understand. now you know what i feel like when i die for you."

she lets the information sink in as if it's something new, as if she hasn't read his work, isn't deeply familiar with the rhythm of his words and the way he spins a story. "i was a writer, too," she says. a moment's hesitation, and she reaches out to lay a hand on his shoulder. to onlookers, it's the same compassion she'd show any of them. "sorry. i know it can be hard to talk about... before."

there's something thrilling about this strange little game he's decided to play. they're just talking, but already her heart is racing, her face is warm. every look, every gesture, every word is simultaneously performative and clandestinely intimate. nobody watching knows who they are to each other. the whole thing feels more risqué than their usual trysts, despite the fact that they're both fully clothed.

is he trying to test her patience? will he do his best to rile her up without anyone noticing? her mind spins with possibilities; she has to wrestle her attention back to the matter at hand. "i don't want to say you'll get used to it, because dying is never fun—" well, almost never "—but... at least we don't stay dead, right? i mean, it hurts like a bitch. i just try to find the glass-half-full view, i guess."

jed has half of the survivors wrapped around his pinky already, primed to fret over him and bathe him in attention. this, at least, should help to spare her from any close skepticism over that initial shock she so eagerly tucked away. there's a look in his eyes that she's familiar with by now. he's proud as she sinks her teeth into what he's created here.

"oh, uh," he casts a nervous look around at the other survivors. for jed, it felt taboo to bring up their past lives, insensitive in a way that couldn't be easily forgiven. though he'd normally boast about his job, here he blinks and stares at his shoes, deflating a bit with a sigh. all a performance and yet, the SHAME seems natural over jed's frame. anything in order to twist his audience into knots.

"i was a journalist..." his lips purse before those dark eyes return to her, warm with hope. "i'm not sure exactly how that could help me here, though..." danny wonders how she'll take that, what direction she'll run in with it. the stage is hers now, ripe for the taking.

anxiety spikes into panic, gripping percy's heart and lungs in an iron fist. even if she believes he's not mad at her, it's clear she's upset him on some level, and it has her shrinking into herself. "i'm sorry," she repeats in a whisper, hating herself for upsetting him and hating herself more for not knowing how to fix it. the monstrous thing inside her has reared its head, it seems, and just like always she's ruined everything. every word he says only makes her feel sicker, wishing she'd just kept her mouth shut. she clenches her hand into a fist, willing the bite of her nails against her palm to ground her. "i know," she says once he's done, fear and regret making her voice break, "i know, i'm sorry."

some instinct has her scrambling to explain herself, desperate to put a bandage over a wound she's terrified requires sutures. "it was stupid, it doesn't even make sense. that's why i didn't want to say anything, i'm sorry!" her voice sounds high and hysterical even to her own ears. and with her heart racing, trembling all over, she might as well be a bird caught in a snare. she hates herself for that, too, for not being able to keep it together. can't even own up to your own mistakes, she thinks venomously. always trying to guilt-trip people. it's your fault, percy. he's going to realize you can't accept blame, and he's going to leave, and that'll be your fault too. "i can't believe i—" she shakes her head, tries to swallow an onslaught of panicked tears. "i should give you space, i can go."

for once in their relationship, danny felt that the core of her isn't silly. she's having a trace of INSTINCT and acting on it, squirming away from the monster that held her in his maw so delicately. she's so prone to bend and sway to his whims, allowing him to carve something of her that was entertaining and it was one the only reasons he kept her around. AND YET, she's here now, confessing her suspicions which is so very stupid to do, and it's one of the most interesting things she could've done. were his eyes not already so dark, they'd darken as he watches her wind herself into knots in his silence. he lets it stretch on, even after she's finally spat it out, his face the picture of calm aside from the tinge of hurt that has him swallowing thickly.

"yeah, i—" he clears his throat, looking around in a display of disbelief, "i can see why you think that'd upset me." those fucking ghosts. how did he pick a girlfriend who can SEE GHOSTS? at first, it had been amusing, the thought that even in death, his prey couldn't escape him, forced to see his face again and again and again. now, he just wishes they'd mind their own business. "i don't know if i need to SAY this, percy," he's tense. he's not projecting anger, far too controlled and forgiving for that, but he's tense. "but i'm NOT GHOSTFACE." he looks back at her, brows furrowed, and he almost believes himself. after all, jed isn't ghostface, he could never be, far too meager and plain and good. "god, the way that—" hands rub down his face, eyes squeezed shut, and he stays that way for a moment, sighing, shaking his head. then he looks at her, seeming BEATEN and wearied. "the way that psychopath gets under people's SKIN. every fucking part of my life. —sorry, it's... exhausting. i don't know why these ghosts are fixated on me. that is... above my fucking pay grade, i don't know what to tell you there. but i'm not ghostface."

[spiritdreamt]

HE SAYS IN THE END YOU'RE DEAD, NOTHING CAN HURT YOU, WHICH SEEMS TO HIM A MORE PROMISING BEGINNING, MORE TRUE.

Verse;; ✩°｡⋆⸜ 🎧 Bubble Pop Oh no! DBD Main Verse Verse;; ⋆｡ﾟ☁︎｡⋆｡ ﾟ☾ ﾟ｡⋆ Bloomed in Red! Survived! AU Verse Verse;; ༘⋆♡⸝⸝💌⊹。°˖➴ Group Support and Roll Call! NO-Spin Verse Verse;; ˗ˏˋ ꒰ ♡ ꒱ ˎˊ˗ Pending Stars in the Sky! Undetermined

Explanation: So! The main verse with asks as well as centered in the DBD Fog verse is Bubble Pop Oh no! This is where Jong-In is mostly, where I answer most asks, and where most of the drawings will come from.

Bloomed in Red is a what-if verse where most of NO-Spin survives, but comes to realize Ji-Woon didn't try to save them. He eventually gets caught for murder and is sent to prison. That being said, Jong-In begins his own solo career, donning more reds and darker colors and despite everything? He frequently visits Ji-Woon, hoping he is alright.

Group Support and Roll Call is the past verse, where he is still in NO-Spin and not in the fog. He hasn't died and therefore goes about his daily routines.

Pending Stars in the Sky is just what it says, it's a place holder for any AUs that may arise!

[stellaricwriting-archive]

For your dbd to do list you have Wilbur listed as pending, if you don't already have one and are okay with suggestions I kinda have an idea on what his character could be. Also the techno dbd au was wonderful it was very well written.

i have fleshed out his character and plot since making that, but i'd love to hear your idea if you still wanna share!

[avalonandpals]

tw for sui//de mention near the end (don’t worry it didn’t actually happen) and implied head trauma

alright so yeah, one of my ideas for where to take that AU was to have David die in some way and Felix be powerless to stop it (perhaps he gets a chance to see his dad again and takes it but doing so leaves David alone for long enough that… well. y’know). Thinking that after he dies he ends up coming back as a Guardian Angel similarly to how Felix did, but Felix isn’t sure how to feel about it because now David isn’t allowed to interact with any elements from his past life. David at first seems fine with this but is still secretly wishing he got some closure to things he decided to avoid throughout his whole life (like in dbd canon with how he “moved on” from his failed rugby career but was still so mad about people mentioning it that he broke a guys fingers just because they brought it up), and Felix is trying to decide on how to help because he knows this but also has to grapple with the fact that he technically caused this while trying to receive closure himself instead of just moving on from it proper. guilt :D

main theme im trying to get across here is that sometimes perfect closure isn’t possible and chasing it down forever instead of moving on will keep you stuck in the past (Felix and his Dad, but also the fact that David now can’t get “physical” closure anymore) but you can’t just deny it all and pretend it doesn’t bother you either (David). Sometimes it’s best to just heal on your own, accept how you feel about it, and move along after you’ve learned how to carry the weight of it all.

Heavy things aside!

After a brief time-skip David ends up being “assigned” to Élodie but is still technically being watched by Felix because Felix hasn’t been reassigned to anyone just yet. David is clearly not very happy to be around her because she is too “nosy” about his origins as his existence somehow proved a theory she had in the past, specifically about how her old childhood friend “Felix” went missing hmmmmm

David doesn’t trust her so he doesn’t tell her anything and in fact gets so annoyed at first that he completely disappears despite not really knowing how his abilities work yet. Their whole dynamic is that she keeps tricking David into answering things he doesn’t want to, and in retaliation he refuses to be helpful (example, she’ll trip and he’ll go “watch out” after she’s fallen). Élodie keeps going on dangerous adventures in order to collect relics to exchange for information on these seemingly random disappearances (in particular Felix’s, but that ties to a greater story).

David often disappears when she’s asleep in order to talk to Felix, who refuses to show his face around her (reason pending). Felix has given him the job of sabotaging her efforts for whatever that reason is. Perhaps it’s messing with fate?

Random note to tie up this rambling: David has a glowing “crack” like mark on the back of his head from how he died. Felix feels bad looking at it but will still run his fingers over the back of it from time to time. He feels it pulsing with whatever energy they’re made of now, like a distant heartbeat that refuses to pause its rhythm. David will then take his hand and move it so that Felix is now holding his face instead. He knows why Felix disappeared for a bit but doesn’t care, because he knows it was an accident and can’t truly blame Felix for it all. He saved him by just showing up, changed his life by being there, and so even in death he doesn’t hold a grudge against him. How could he? Without Felix having showed up when he did, he wouldn’t have lived as long (if you catch what I mean).

Élodie has a feeling it’s related to David’s death and doesn’t mention it, not wanting to be insensitive. She’s stubborn and curious, but she isn’t an ass.

ok my rambling is done maybe I’ll write this maybe

oh also what if I told you guys that I actually end up killing David in the guardian angel au oops :)

[spiritdreamt]

it terrifies and thrills her in equal measure, how she never manages to hear him coming. danny had been impressive before (once he'd allowed her to see who he truly was) but here? here, he's transcendent. percy tracks the flash of his blade—in her eyes, there's some kind of eagerness, some kind of hunger. he'll win, she knows. the only question is whether or not she'll fight back. she takes a step back, smiling coyly. "am i supposed to make it easy for you?"

@spiritdreamt liked for a starter.

"i wanna be human." a sickening smile in his voice, shielded behind his mask as he cleans the blade in a way no one else could quite ever replicate. "i thought maybe wearing YOUR mask would help me understand..." is that a tone of remorse? boots make no noise as he approaches her in the entity's realm. his home. his true home. at the very least, she can be happy for him. "but i kinda just wanna skin you alive."

[spiritdreamt]

he's right, it's not the same. but there is a kinship there, a shared understanding of that boundary between life and afterlife. sometimes, she worries that living on that boundary—that seeing both worlds—has done just as much damage to her as her stepmother has. "yeah," she agrees quietly, a little smile touching at her lips. "i'm lucky i found you, you know? to have someone who doesn't just believe me, but—but understands, even if it's not exactly the same. it means... so much."

"in a way," he hesitates, wondering if he should be so bold. "it's not the same," before she can correct him or feel invalidated, "but we both speak for the dead. i try to... make it feel like they were less alone in their final moments, when there was no one there to WITNESS what happened to them. i can speak for those moments leading up to death, and you..." the thought doesn't need to be finished.

[spiritdreamt]

he doesn't need to speak for her to know it's him. she hadn't even needed to catch more than a glimpse of his face—she'd be able to pick him out anywhere. still, it's a shock to see him here at the campfire, her wolf in sheep's clothing. she does her best to hide her surprise behind a sweet smile, hoping the others either don't see it or assume it's just over the new arrival.

"all good things, i hope," she jokes. percy doesn't know why he's here, why he's playing at being jed after so long, but she'll follow his lead. she always does. so she lets her face go soft and sympathetic, just like she would for any innocent person who found themselves in the fog. she's not as good a liar as danny, but she can hold her own most of the time.

she settles next to him, resisting the hungry urge to reach out, to touch; she can be patient, be good. "it's a lot," she agrees, "but you'll learn quick. if you have any questions, or if you need anything, you can ask me." nothing the others will find suspicious; she's worked very hard to be nice, kind. it makes her life easier. "what did you do before this, jed?"

@spiritdreamt

"it's, uh... percy, right?" there's a smile in a familiar voice, warm as the campfire that he sits beside. slipping into this skin again has him thrilled, even if the persona itself is stale and boring in comparison to the ghost face. brown eyes look up at his lover from where she approaches him and his gaggle of survivors, flocked around him.

"the others were telling me about you. kind of information overload, though..." jed is timid, slower in his speech than danny would be. he's made himself smaller too, shoulders hunched, hands held in his lap like he doesn't know where to put them.

"i'm jed, i just got here in this—..." a wary glance around him to the woods, the fog, the whispering shadows of the night. "place?"
