Solvent for caustic scars

And pithy observations of canine incisors

Prebby prease

elllll my love hi

i’m pretty sure you’ve beta’d both of these at some point

snippet from solvent for caustic scars chapter two:

“God fuckin’ dammit,” Soap seethes, pressing his back against their steadily chipping cover as he checks his remaining ammo.

Empty as his current ideas.

Gaz abandons his Sisyphean task and scrambles for his radio. “Does anyone read me?”

Even the hail of bullets couldn’t mask the answering silence.

“We’re so fucked,” Gaz whispers, slumping down.

Soap peaks over the crate, attempting to get a hostile count. He needs something. Anything. Just one confirmation so he can pull himself together and come up with a semblance of a plan.

It takes a single sharp-pitched whistle blazing past his ear for him to drop back down without thought.

“Anything?” Gaz asks, scanning the room over his shoulder.

They’re running out of time. Waiting is a certain death sentence. No one is coming to save them.

“Stay here.”

“What?”

snippet from pithy observations of canine incisors:

Soap stopped going to church long before he signed his name on the dotted line, signing his life away right along with it. Years have passed since he last stepped foot on those crumbling steps. It’s been longer since he made it through the threshold.

He wonders if someone’s repainted the guardrail yet. Years of sea salt lingering after heavy storms chipped away at that white paint. The salt filled the air—so heavy the taste would linger in the back of his throat for hours—and over the years he’d watch the paint chips crumble.

Back in the day, before the violence and bloodshed, when he was still a stupid kid, he’d go to church. Not a single Sunday passed where the entire MacTavish family wouldn’t stuff themselves into those rows of stiff wooden pews. They looked the part, too, all dressed up in their finest clothes. All dolled up with ironed shirts, shined shoes, and a tie he fucked up so many times.

His older sister, Elspeth, would take it from his clumsy hands and show him how to do it properly. Time and time again, she’d take it without a skip in the beat, and tie the damn thing like hadn’t done it the week before. She’d admonish him every time, telling him they had to look their best when in front of God.

Little John MacTavish—so stupid and so goddamn naïve—would grin up at her with a gapped grin and tell her, “But God’s always watchin’. That’s what you said. He knows every part of you inside and out.”

He would be so fucking proud of saying it. So pleased, like he personally made God proud. Like God would approve of his entire being. At the time, he thinks God might’ve done so. Back when he still had faith in a higher power above. When the MacTavish’s still got together and played the part of picture-perfect family in front of the town.

Sometimes, he still wonders if the townspeople ever found out his old man could drink all of them under the table with ease. Did they ever think about how he would drink and drink until he bristled about, red in the face? How with every bottle downed, he’d get real damn mean.

His old man wasn’t always like that, and Soap doesn’t remember when the bastard crossed the line and never looked back. Couldn’t be sure if he ever knew the line existed in the first place.

Soap’s not an expert on God anymore—doesn’t know if he ever perceived himself as such—and he’s never been good at figuring out why he wasn’t good enough to love. But he’s sure as hell God doesn’t like men that beat on their kids and wife.

His faith crumbled over the years right alongside the white paint. Chipped away with every purple bruise stretched across his skin and the tight funds spent on makeup. Covered those dark bruises right up, every swipe of the brush accompanied by acidulous accomplishment.

What a waste of money. What a waste of time believing in a God who did fuck all for him.
