well, serves him right. that’s what he gets for constantly being obsessed with the things only he believes are real. but despite this, i put on my jacket to find him. who else is going to do?sporting an outfit proper for the shadows, the alleys become my roadways.

1) an alley is an ideal kidnapping location.

the clunk of my boots refuses to quite as i step in every puddle the concrete has left me. my heart won’t listen to me. i am not scared. he could never be, right? nothing ever happens here. besides, what would a kidnapper want with my brother anyways? have a buddy to play genshin with?

my brain waves away the thought.

2) never assume you are invincible.

has it gotten darker? well yeah, as it gets later it gets darker. has it ever been this dark? the allies are barren, not even the rustling of cats in garbage cans can be heard. that seem unusual. no, no, it’s fine. i am not turning this into anything. it’s nothing. splash. the sounds of footsteps. a cat, a homeless person, a raccoon, anything. anything but what i’m thinking. it stops, the noise stops. i let a breath escape me. shink. a metallic sound, how horrid.

3)never turn around.

forgive me brother, but i have broken every rule you have live by. turns out your right. cocky bastard.
