a comprehensive list of everything wrong with hazbin hotel.
quick note before i lose myself in madness, my standards for helluvaboss are non existent because its a free show on youtube. also i kinda like helluvaboss and i will indulge in any bias i damn well please.
oh and spoilers. i guess.
the greater narrative of the entire season is "White lady civilize inner city hoodlum". ex: The blind side. rich girl, affluent family yadda yadda.
the story is set up to be like amphibia, owl house, svtfoe, steven universe, that being starting as something episodic then transforming into story driven narrative. why? because we know the benefits and drawbacks, episodic starts allows us to wander the world, it allows us to understand the dynamics, we are not forced to reckon with anything because there is no deadline. characters are allowed to bloom and shine and the audience can actually get attached.
the source material is Vary Clearly formed from remnants of something out of a middle school edgelord narrative. the usage of transformation, the big spooky grins, the "and then i smile as my eyes glow and-"-isms which in most cases i don't mind because in some instances but in a vary Particular case its astoundingly annoying and that annoyance is like a mold, shit spreads quick.
the color Red. as a lover of homestuck cherubs and karkat and aradia, as someone who fucking loves the color red, it is so painful to say but holy shit tone it the fuck down, i know its hell but their are so many other colors that you can use, its everywhere, the streets, the air, the windows, the screens, the characters, i know the pride ring is represented with red but change up the palates every so often for backgrounds
the rush, this ties into the second point made but i think the story itself is rushed. we know everything way to early. i know way to much and it makes it hard to care about anything because im still trying to digest the last chunk of info. "oh ok, so they clear out hell once a year. oh hell has a heaven embassy? ok. oh that adam the angel, i though he wou- oh its every 6 months now. wait the exterminators die a lot? then why is everyone sca- people in hell already have weapons that can kill angels? w- oh we are in heaven now, ok ma- no one in heaven except for the elites know the exterminations occur? how do-" and its that, just this incessant rush to explain everything to you. notably that's just the god damn spark notes, we need to know everything about the characters now, every single bit of their story, their insecurities, what charlie needs to fix, how she can fix them, the major bad guys, everything. you are never allowed to dwell on a character because we need to rush towards something else. it almost feels like this should have been like... season three, it would have been a fantastic season three if you dropped the introductions honestly.
the concept of redemption. for a story of redemption to work you need to look at three things. What is there crime, Do they want to change, What is preventing them from changeing? there is only one single character that has a notable path of redemption, angel dust, but if you look through their story it feels off. What Exactly is he guilty of? he has sex, does drugs and drinks. his apparent nymphomania is tied to his sad backstory as someone forced into the sex industry so how is that their fault? then if you think about it you start to spiral and notice "hey why are most of these people in hell?" like sure some of them may deserve punishment but then you see the fucking dichotomy and its like "I was a inventor in england and died of the fucking plague, i may have made evil little contraption hoohoohoo" vs "I was a cannibal, a full on cannibal, i fucking killed people and ate them and then someone shot me". ONE OF THESE THINGS ARE A LITTLE MORE FUCKING EXTREME. i'm going to go fucking nuts, the thing they went to heaven with when presenting a case to angels on the idea that redemption and becoming a better person is actually real was angel dust not drinking at a party and not having sex with consenting adults and i want to go fucking insane. WHAT IS THE CRIME, WHO IS THROWING THE BOOK, WHAT DOES THE BOOK INTEL, ARE WE ON GOOD PLACE RULES?! half the cast dont Need redemption they need fucking help, and the other half of the cast do need redemption but they do not seek it making the point moot. sir pentious acts like he has the brain of a hyper intelligent toddler tossing about toys, its almost like he did his one bad thing of spying and then got caught, sank his little diddy about forgiveness and second chances and become a null point through out the rest of the series, sure their was Some weight to him sacrificing himself, he was a decently funny character and he had good moments but him popping up in heaven felt like a fore gone conclusion, he didn't deserve to be in hell so why do i care that he is suddenly in heaven? because its working on the concept the good place already made. no one actually deserves eternal punishment they just need help processing what makes them a dick, but instead of looking at all the parts of the afterlife that make it bad, inefficient and then creating and trying ideas to see if it work instead over a few seasons, we crash dick first into all the major plot points in regards to that and say "tada, we fixed it.".
having a sub-plot about sexual assault and its victims then having multiple sexual assault related gag ruins your point.
don't make a bunch of stereotypically jewish characters into cannibals, that was a big thing, really shouldn't have to say it.
if you are going to make a character black, make them black, you can say alastor was black but sweet seren-fucking-dippity that's not a black man.
pot meet kettle but yeah the cursing could be a little less liberal. maybe just blue hair or the pronouns, not both.
there is a very distinctive art deco/jazz aesthetic which normally i love but i feel as though it is not used to its full extent and in some cases really hurts the character design in and of itself.
this is a vary obvious bit but the story is a million times more interested in gay men then it is of lesbians, which culminates in this insane thing where the writers clearly have more talent or perhaps it would be more abt to say practice writing male gay pining then they are with lesbian pining. which i personally think is hilarious because i did not know you could min max fujoshi-ism that hard.
this next section is more to do with each character on a fundamental level, for the sake of brevity whatever there is left, i'm just doing ones with speaking roles.
13. Charlie:
(see what i mean about that red thing?)
as originally stated charlie fits rather comfortably into every white saviour narrative, though that seems to be part of her joke. though i'm not entirely sure how much of a joke it can be when its rewarded and expected to advance the plot.
her character design says nothing, it has the motif of old puppets or dolls, she wears something vaguely similar to service suits, her demonic form is just some extra horns.not to say every character needs to have their life on a clothes rack but some more snake and goat imagery would be nice
its not the chol design of charlie with snake hair, not an actual problem but its a problem to me, damn you @cholvoq for ruining my ability to look at any of the characters without wishing i was seeing your designs instead.
character wise aside from the white savoir bit, i'm having a bit of trouble understanding what the arc of the character is. she is shown to be naive, someone who doesn't understand how the world works but everytime she says something its something astoundingly clear like "people can actually get better". and its treated like someone demanded faygo in every water fountain. is the joke that the world around her to cynical or is so to naive? please pick one or the other.
now if you know me, you know i fucking hate overpowered characters with a blinding passion, one that would set alit the god damn abyss but in this one special instance, i feel like its warranted, she's the direct descendant of fucking God, she can swing her weight around a little, i mean god damn. she in so many instances looks like shes cowering so often, why would the daughter of lucifer get backed down by some rando pimp? why wasn't she the one to fight adam? sure you can say she is young but how young? her parents were there since pre-abrahamic times, most of the characters showed up in hell in the 1900s, some of them showed up in the 1600s, how old is charlie??? how long does it take for her to learn how to be strong? The story does not suffer if charlie is strong and knows she is strong. it can easily be a case of "i don't believe in violence to a weird degree". fit it into her apparent naivety about the world to believe that violence is never the answer even when dealing with a being that is unilaterally horrible and abusive and monstrous.
she ga- no im kidding, i do think her romance was waysided a bit, it would have been fine to have more scenes of them togather and in love you know?
14. Vaggie
why did you name the lesbian vaggie...? Don't do that maybe?
I like how her design is almost moth like but again i feel as though you could have amped that up.
she feels as though someone tried to combine undyne and pearl from steven universe, same story beats and design elements. it makes it hard to really distinguish her as a character.
i honestly dont have much to say about her. she is fine.
christ kill me, lets just get the big one out of the way
15. Alastor.
God Damn
where to start.
"alastor is mixed race" mixed with fucking what? concrete? there is not a single black feature on that creature, now im not saying you have to make him a png of louie armstrong but it wouldn't hurt to add a curl to the hair maybe? make it a tiny bit more wavy? Something? a crumb i beg of thee?
his symbolism is all over the god damn place, native american monsters (you know the one), voodoo, radio, puppets, stitches, circuses??? and Tentacles i guess. two of those are from closed religions so if you dumped those you would actually get a more concise character focused on the concept of vox populi as a means of societal control and influence as we see in his first song. but again that gets drowned out repeatedly by all the other random toy box bits shoved into him.
tumblr sexy man bait
he serves no purpose in the story. he does spooky stuff, pretends to do things and then goes back to sitting around looking spooky. i understand that his motif is supposed to be aloof mastermind but maybe have him do more mastermindy things? if you remove most of alastors scenes, bar the songs, it doesn't change all to much. husk and nifity can still be at the hotel, they could be looking for outs in their contracts the same as angel dust. hell it even helps with the one scene where he dose some spooky shit, asking charlie for a favor in exchange for his help in the fight with the angels instead of asking him about angel weapons which should have remained a strictly vaggie scene.
his presence in a way delegitimize the story, as I noted in in the section regarding redemption, the three parts are "what is the crime, do they want to change, what is stopping them?" and alastor kinda just spits in the face of that. he is a serial killer cannibal that has no qualms about how evil he is and apparently must continue being evil due to being under the control under someone legitimately called the Root Of All Evil. show him take a slight interest in the idea that maybe shit for him could be better, make him Want Change at the bare fucking minimum or dont have him at the hotel.
his stupid little fucking horns, big shot the troll liker wants characters to have big fucking horns, make them noticeable or dont have them.
he looks more like a dog boy, which could have been an interesting thing with the collar motif but fuck me i guess.
personal pet peeve but i fucking hate characters that have a million plus powers, stick to a set number, be creative.
im getting more petty as i go on so last point: he could have been in less episodes, he didn't need to be in dad beat dad, that should have been just a lucifer and charlie episode. inverse the red and black and i think he would be fucking great color wise, his body type is the same as ten different characters, he isnt radio enough, aside from the voice and and staff if you told me he was the fucking Cat Demon i would have been just as convinced.
16. Angel Dust
what the fuck, gay spider? its hard to actully articulate all the thoughts i have on angel dust, not in the sense that he is a deeply thought provoking character but in the fact that there is not much meat on the bones.
all around i think angel dust is kinda middling. he has a decent enough romance with husk, he has a decent enough story line that revolves around battling addiction and removing yourself from an abuser (which the story tries to brand as "Redemption???")
I dont like that most of his jokes would qualify as sexual harassment, i don't mind him being sexual as a character but continuing on when clearly someone doesn't like the jokes hurts the character.
not a critique but he is pink, which honestly ill fucking take at point, as long as its not more fucking red.
i think his design is an improvement over some of the old vivzie designs but it feels like it could have done with going a few more rounds of design changes.
same thing with alastor, charlie and vaggie, there is not enough of the animal that they are supposed to be. You could have told me angel dust was a fucking bee or something and i would have had to believe you. nothing about angel dust initially says spider, hell he dosent even have enough limps to be a fucking spider.
17. Carmilla carmine
are... are you supposed to be a rabbit...?
Big Yoai Hands
ballet fighting style, could have been cool, wish she fought more like sanji or chun li.
A single mom that works to hard, who loves her kids and never stops-
her song was decent, not great, decent. it feels as though the actress has experience singing but not in the way they tried to make her sing during her two songs. they have a obvious mexican influence, honestly just let her sing in spanish in the english dub. go listen to the spanish dub, "out for love" sounds great in spanish.
i wish i had more thoughts on them, fucking rip.
18. cherri bomb
that's not a punk aesthetic that's 2010s alt
decent character, they showed up once or twice i guess, no real thoughts.
19. egg boiz
absolutely perfect, i have not notes on them, these are perfect creatures.
20. Emily
im so fucking happy to see a singular blue character
does the naive dreamer bit better then charlie
We really shouldnt have seen her until the end of season two or middle of three.
good contrast with the other angels on screen.
Wait she is supposed to be black??? Where???
21. Husk
keith david you absolute delight, Why on gods green earth did they only give you one singing part?
one of the few charecters where its clear husk is a cat, i do like the kinda... marquee design, he is a magic cat, thats neat. i still think you can toss the wings and eyebrows and still have just as good of a charecter.
has a deeply intresting story of someone who died as a nobody, became the fat cat of hell and then was forced back to the bottom by their own vices, not used at fucking all.
huge potential, little pay off.
22. lillith
I know nothing about her except she ditched her kid and husband to vacation in heaven and i think thats kinda funny.
alot of werid things floating around her, again she shouldnt have been shown in the show at all until next season.
23. lucifer morningstar
no notes, funniest charecter, did a song based on friend like me.
few notes: i do like the idea that the immortal symbol of pride is a constant emotional wreckage constantly seeking approval through grand showmanship and manic energy that threatens to take over anything they touch.
would have liked more snake stuff on him, maybe some more goat things like horns.
that is such a stupid fucking staff lmao.
24. Adam.
alex brightman you absolute fucking delight, you should have had more songs.
I wish his design was more focused on the idea of him being a glam rock wash up
I fucking hate his mask
We shouldn't have met him until the end of the season.
25. Niffty
again she is supposed to be a bug or cockroach but nothing about her points to that.
token straight
keeps rocketing back and fourth between sexulization and infantilization
you had kimiko glenn but didnt give her a single fucking song?
26. Sir Pentious
the secret season one redeemed.
the pilot version of him felt more like someone that could do a season one redemption arc, a megalomaniac constantly attempting territory grabs, there is something you can work with, actual character flaws to work through.
essentially a child after the first episode.
actually a snake which i appreciate.
no where near steampunky enough.
27. the villians of the show dont make much sense, each one feels like they should be season long deals on their own instead of a bunch of team rocket esque idiots that show up on occasion, do a bad thing and then leave.
28. Valentino
gOD THERE IS SO MUCH RED
only a moth some of the time.
sucks as a villain, maybe they need more screen time to show why they suck in a more substantial way aside from being told that he sucks.
it is interesting that angel dust is only under his magical control when in the studio, it shows that angel dust has to make a conscious choice to return, which in turn can be made to show how abusers can draw back their victims. I do not think it was done well in this circumstance as it shows him to be cartoonishly evil, constantly flying back and fourth between sweet and utter psycho, there is no actual reason for angel dust to ever actually go back to the studio, he just does so every so often.
29. Vox
legit who cares? the only thing about him that is in any way substantial is all the dope ass fan art we get.
propaganda machine angle that is not explored at all, just hinted at. no actual barring on the story whatsoever.
why didn't he try to do the same shit as alastor by the way? he knows its bad if alastor gets in good with charlie so shouldn't it be a ass kissing race?
same body shape as literally every other male character.
tumblr sexy man version of pyrocynicals fursona.
30. Valvette
the actual poster child of the shows huge problem of "Show me, don't tell me".
apparently the glue that holds the villains together. never shown.
apparently the one that makes the love potions that valentino is famous for. had to learn about that in the fuckin wiki trivias
we know so much about her from things outside of the show.
was there to call carmilla a coward, that's her plot contribution. she shows up every now and again but its never anything substantial and serves to more around take up run time for people We Don't Need To Know Yet.
im not trying to be mean, animation is animation, we need smaller studios to have success in the industry so that other indie studios can have that success, felling a tree makes it easier for others to follow. showing that its possible to number brain rot exacs helps all animators.
but this show has so much bullshit attached to it, it has so much fucking potential that it fries my brain with unyielding frustration.
this took a bit to write, im tired, thanks for reading.

Autum sighed as she stitched up her arm, just another wound. Her apartment was empty, filled with only herself.
“Died again?” She questioned herself.
It was strange, usually she could remeber how she died. Or atleast make sense of it, but no. She just practically woke up to herself stitiching.
“Fucking hell..” She scofffed, finally ending the stitch by pulling up and sinching it.
When she dropped the needle, the rest of the thread attached to it came out. She cut it off and poked around at the still somewhat gaping hole in her arm
They dug their fingers into the flesh right above it, frustrated.
“How did I mess up again?? All I want is to..” She hissed.
All they wanted was to be viewed as an actual person. People adimired them for their looks and personality. They didn’t even bother to try and help them or look deeper.
It was funny, she had always been treated kindly by other people. What if the ginger had been ugly, or more mean??
Obviously, they would hate her then, right?
She darkened her eyes before swiftly standing up off of the couch. Her long hair followed her movements, unrestrained by a hairtie or anything.
She looked out at the city of Valentino, loud. She would have some way to make a name for herself, even though most people just knew she just kept coming back.
Of course there was the regular person stummbling across Autumn’s body here and there. Terrifed when she shot up and gasped for air. They always had a look of horror when her emerlad eye connected with theirs.
She grunted and moved to her kitchen. Might aswell make coffee before moving out, right??
Some people might have called her insane for still going out into the world. For living her life, as painfilled as it was.
Once the coffee was brewed, she took a cup and poured it into it, then she sealed it with a lid. Her phone, that was sitting on the counter lit up with a message.
‘hey autumn! i’m outside of your place, ready to hang out?? im really exicted, we haven’t seen each other in so long!’
They grimnaced, Summer. Summer was their older sister an awfully nice girl. So naive.
They placed their cup to the side as they picked up the phone. A photo of them and Summer was the profile picture she had set. A stinging feeling filled their upper chest and they clentched the photo tighter.
“God damnit.” They hissed.
She blinked and slowly texted a response. Meanwhile, the taller ginger looked around the area. They were currently outside of the complex, and got brushed by a few people.
They blinked in surprise but a wide grin formed on their face as they read the message Autumn had sent them.
‘yeah yeah, i’m coming relax’ was all it said.
The older didn’t feel the need to respond, so she didn’t. She also flinched when she noticed someone infront of her.
“Hey, arsenic.” The younger sister greeted.
Dark green eyes immeditally glanced up from her phone. She made immediete eye contact with Autumn.
A soft yet exicted smile formed on her face. The younger looked as she always had. Her ginger hair was in a low ponytail now, tied with a green ribbon.
She also had lots of scars alinging her body, one missing through her right eye but don’t damanging the eye itself. She also had a scar on the left side of her neck in the shape of a lightening bolt.
In all honesty, she did look like someone who had been through way too much.
“Autumn!!” Summer shook her head and quickly hugged her sibling.
The other returned the embrace, all be it lighter. When both of them pulled away the other girl got a good look at what they were wearing. A tight fitting shirt with straps that showed..skin.
Like Summer had mentioned earlier, they had bruises, scars and shittly wrapped banadges around areas. The color of the top was a basic marrow bone colored besige with a skelton desigin.
Autumn also had on low waisted jeans that were a deeper gray and with a belt. Finally, with black combat boots, she looked nice.
“It’s good to see you again.” The younger said.
The taller beamed and moved back a little.
“I could say the same! You look..well..?” She questioned.
The younger twin scoffed and shuffled her feet slightly. Her eyes seemed to dart to her feet for a second before back to Summer’s.
“Just tell me I look like shit.” She blurted out.
The other blinked a few times before laughing. It was nice to see that they honestly knew that they weren’t in the best condition.
“Ah, good to see you still have that same humor! Anyways, wanna’ hit up a cafe’ before we fuck around?” She giggled before smiling with her eyes closed.
The ladder simply nodded. They had that sinking feeling in their stomach again, so they tossed a glance over their shoulder. No one else was there, stop being paranoid Autumn.
“Hey?” They were surprised and tensed when a soft hand shook their shoulder.
Their dark eyes connected with slightly brighter ones. A grin formed onto her sisters face and she made a follow me motion.
“Come on, I know I’M suposed to be the ONE visting YOU but I looked up a really cute cafe’!” She explained.
Autumn wasn’t really listening, merly humming. The two walked on the sidewalk, finally out of the compelx area in the full city of Valentino. She noticed people pausing what they were doing to get a good look at her.
Her sibling must have noticed her posture change, as they cocked an eyebrow.
“Does your presnce really radiate that many looks??” They questioned.
The ginger simply grumbled and scowled. She absoutetly despised it, she hated it so much. Why did everyone have so much want and lust towards her?
She would never wish this fate on anyone else, this was exactly why she burdened it. She would weigh herself down if it ment keeping Summer and every other person safe. No matter how many times she died.
Then again, she was currently restarting from a death. It would only be soon enough till some creep made his disgusting move.
“Sooo..I’m assuming no boyfriend or girlfriend?” Her sister asked, keeping pace with her and leaning to the side.
The emerlad eyed girl didn’t have to think about it. She barely had any romantic attraction anymore. Anyone who she had ever dated turned out to become obessed with her and wanted to take her.
She blew out a puff of air and shook her head.
“No..nothing like that.” She answered.
The ladder simply hummed before perking up when a cafe’ came into view. A rather large one at that, Autumn also looked up.
“Ah, here it is!~” She sang, walking faster and opening the door.
The other grunted and shuffled inside, the other female following. There was actually a good amount of people looking at them when they entered.
“Fucking annoying..” They scoffed.
Summer didn’t even look at the people and kept a naive smile on their face. They wished they could keep that naive nature for themself. They were jealous.
They were cut off by someone brushing past the said older sibling and towards them. It was a male, of course it was.
“Hey, sweetness. Aren’t you a cute LITTLE thing?” He cooed towards them.
That intense revenge and hatered towards people like this Autumn had built up crawled into their being again. Maybe they were a sociopath, maybe they didn’t like any people..
But these..PEOPLE..were the most disgusting.
“Not intrested.” She simply replied.
The man seemed to have a reaction towards this, his eyes narrowing. He had short, red hair that looked oddly soft and dark blue eyes.
“Oh yeah? What, this your girlfriend?” He spat, glancing towards her older sister.
The taller burst out laughing while she made a disgusted face. This guy could go hang himself for all she cared, he was vile.
“Twin sister, thank you.” Summer flashed a closed eyed smile.
He grunted and flicked his eyes back towards her.
“Why aren’t you intrested?? Is it because I’m too much for you?!” He agressivly asked.
The long haired female flinched when his large hand grabbed her lower arm and raised it. She quickly scowled and tried tugging it away, he didn’t move. By now, a crowd had formed around them.
“Hey buddy! Get off of them!!” The other ginger dropped her smile and glared at him.
Autumn only narrowed their annoyed eyes further and..
“Get your fucking-!” They started while finally getting free before grabbing him and kicking him harshly in the side.
A round of cheers greeted this and she almost smiled. Then, she grabbed the man by the hair, seeing as he had doubled over.
“DISGUSTING perverted hands off of me. Honestly, that’s sad. Oh, and you have a wedding band on?? How..vile.” She spat before harshly letting go of his hair.
She backed away and glanced towards her sibling. They blinked a few times before making a face and a signal. Autumn made a confused expression before turning around.
Loads of people had their phones out and were recording. No one was helping the male on the ground though, everyone was fawning over her.
“That was so awesome!! What’s your name?!” A male with brown hair and brown eyes asked.
She was about to answer but the crowd of smiling and cheering people came closer. She honestly felt bad for the cafe’ owner.
“Uh-!”
“Your so pretty!! Do you have a partner?!”
‘WHATTTT?!!’ She thought in her head, recoiling.
All she did was show that disgusting pervert his place. And that wasn’t the first time she had done that. either. The girl had also been sweeped into crowds of ‘fans’ before.
Her older sibling quickly stepped in, smiling nervously at all the people.
“It’s nice to meet all of you, I’m sure! But we must be off!~” They waved before tugging the shorter by the wrist.
They both zoomed out the door, leaving everyone dissapointed. The man, still on the floor groaned.
“I..I could sue!! That..she ASSUALTED ME!!” He complained.
Silence covered the cafe’ before..
“Shut up.” Someone threw their empty, paper cup at them.
It hit the top of his head and he grunted. He looked around to who it was.
“Hey?!! What the-!?” He was cut off again.
“YEAH!! GET OUTTA’ HERE!!” More people threw stuff at him and he yelped.
“You were so hot back there! Maybe you’ll blow up, become a fugtive!” Summer panted
The other orange-nette rolled her eyes and looked behind her. They were both currently sitting on a fountains edge, water behind them filled with a statue and pennies.
“Please, I dobut it. Actually no-that might happen actually. Knowing my reputation with..’fame’.” She started but thought about it more.
“Pfft- anyways, maybe you should take me to your favorite spot, yeah??” The other snickered before tilting her head and smiling.
The former squinted at her, that was the thing about Summer. She always had a relaxed smile on her face, and was so nice to everyone. She hated that she pushed her own sister away.
“Am..am I mean to you..?” She hestiantely asked.
The brighter eyed girl blinked and rubbed her eyes. Sje simply scoffed and rolled her eyes.
“Are you? Sometimes, yeah. But it’s not a bad thing.” They answered.
She looked at them before embrassingly turning away and mummbling something. She dug her fresh nails into the rim of the fountain and scowled.
They didn’t like this sudden feeling that dwelled inside of them. Fear? Softness? Whatever it was, they wanted it gone.
“Autumn? Hey!” They shook their sister by the shoulder.
The said person snapped out of it and looked shakily at the others face. They had a concerned expression on, only natural. Only natural, but still annoying.
“Or we can stay here if you’d like? There seems to be somethin’ bothering you.” They reassuringly smiled.
Her nails dug further into the fountain and she hissed. Was she bleeding by now? Probably.
“Wha-Autumn?! Come back please!” Huh?
The female hadn’t even relized she had gotten up and had started walking away. She tried to pause her movements, but it was like she was being dragged to go somewhere.
Her older sibling had gotten up and this cued the others body to start running. Yes, she had lost control of her bodily funcontions once or twice, dropping a plate when her hand went numb, or something else.
But never..THIS..
“Autumn!!” They faintly heard their sibling call after them but they turned back towards and just sighed.
Maybe they were trying to burn off this annoying feeling that had rised in their being. It was that annoying fury and anger towards everyone and everything.
They halted at a crossroad-slightly winded. Some people raised an eyebrow and they only glared at them. They adjusted their posture and glanced towards the button.
“God..” Autumn glanced behind her into the walking crowds but coudn’t spot Summer.
The light turned green and everyone moved along, including her. She only eye-twitched and ran a hand through her hair.
She followed along with the crowd, still checking her phone here and there. It lit up multiple times with the call singal from her sister. She simply ignored it though.
The ginger quickly found another cafe’, one she had been to multiple times. She didn’t order anything though, she simply sat down and laid her head on the table.
People were probably looking at her strangley, she cracked open and eye and just say a couple people peeking glances at her. She lazily made a two finger wave before slumping over again.
“Autumn??” A blonde haired girl leered over the orange-nette.
The person, who was zoning out with their cheek in their head perked up. They glanced towards her, before humming.
“Hey, Nari! What’s up?” They closed eyed smiled.
The other seemed to be pleased with the attention but looked away. She glanced towards the door before back towards them.
“Your..boyfriends..here.” She answered.
The former perked up, like sat up straight and smiled wider. Micheal, her boyfriend was so nice, not to mention cute! Ah, she could feel herself getting flustered.
“Thanks Nari! I can always count on youuu..~” She grinned and kissed her friends cheek before skipping off towards her boyfriend.
Meanwhile, Nari Jeong placed a hand on her cheek, feeling weak. God, only if they knew the hold they had on some people. She watched as they smiled and leaned towards their boyfriend, also kissing his cheek.
Ah…her cheek now felt colder.
“You’ having a good day so far, baby? You seem more happy then usual.” The taller of the duo grinned down at them.
“Yep, now it’s even better because your here! I love you..” They cheered before kissing him.
Micheal wasn’t easy, he didn’t always kiss back. He didn’t always call her nicknames, or tease but it was okay. It was okay because they were still together.
He grunted and gently kissed back before easing her down. She still had that wide smile on her face, and he closed his eyes.
“Your so cute darling.” He breathed out.
It was true, everyone in the school adimired her. From her near ginger hair, that was slightly tied back by the white hairband on her head. Or her cute freckles around her face.
The girls scoffed and her cheeks turned a light pink. So cute.
So cute but too easy..
“Ugh, stop! Could you be anymore cheesy?” She sarcastically asked.
The brown haired male only snickered before raising an eyebrow.
“Probably. But you like it, don’t you??” He inquired back.
She simply grumbled something before jolting when the bell rang. Micheal leaned back slightly, grin still on his face.
“Better get to class, slacker!” She teased before being caught off guard when he connected their lips again.
They closed one, green eyed on reflex before softening and kissing back. It was always nice when he decided to shut them up.
However, quickly after he snickered again and pulled away. They cracked their eyes open and huffed. He quickly picked his bag off of the ground and ruffled their locks of hair.
“See you later, Aut’!~” He cooed before walking away.
They groaned, slumping over again. Only to tense when multiple people ran towards them.
“AAAAH-Your so lucky Autumn!!” A girl with pink hair and brown eyes sighed.
The emerlad eyed girl only raised an eyebrow with a now more tense smile on her face.
“You think so??” She questioned.
Another person, a girl with white hair and green eyes spoke up.
“Uh, yeah!! Micheal is so dreamy, not to mention you!” She gawked.
Autumn could only laugh nervously and play with a strand of hair. There were other popular couples though, right??
“Autumn! And the rest of you, get to your classes please!” Someone broke the crowd up.
She glanced towards them, it was Mars. The rest of the crowd yelped in slight fear before scampering off. She smiled geinuley at the navy haired girl.
“Thanks, Mars! They were sort of..” She trailed off.
“Holding you?? Yeah, I noticed. You should be more honest with your..fans?” She sarcastically answered.
The orange-nette only sweat-dropped before nodding. She entered the classroom along with Mars and prepared for another easy-going day.
The female gasped slightly as she awoke, still in the cafe’. No one was near her, but some people spared a longer glance of confusion at the loud noise.
She muttered something before standing up and rolling her shoulder. She also cracked her hands and strecthed them out before trying to walk out the door.
She was stopped though, by a black haired man. He had fluffy, yet frizzy looking hair with alot of pirecings. He also had black eyes and a grin on his face.
“Hey, I think I know you. Autumn Candell, right?” He asked.
She was immeditally on guard about this, she hadn’t told anyone her name..her throat seized slightly. Oh god, was she going to be able to answer?
“I..I..” She hoarsely said.
Fuck that, her throat closed tighter and she knew she wouldn’t be able to speak. The shorter of the duo wondered how she would be able to communicate.
“Hey, are you alright? Oh! I’m so sorry! Your probably wondering how I know your name?” He relized.
She blinked a few times, was this guy insanely smart or something? Hell, maybe even a mind reader.
They nodded and he placed a relaxed grin on his face.
“We went to the same highschool. I’ve actually been looking for you..” He answered.
‘Oh.’ They thought. ‘That last sentence isn’t creepy, AT ALLLLL..’
“…” They looked around for something before sighing and opening their phone.
They typed something on it and practically shoved it in the male’s face, making him back up.
‘looking for me??’ It asked.
He beamed and nodded, unsettingly. The long haired girl lowered the phone some to get a better look at him.
“I’m so happy to see you again! You probably don’t remeber me, so my name is Michealis Garcia.” He introduced.
She didn’t think about it much, well, her first reaction was to type something in jest.
‘a bit long-winded, wouldn’t you say?’ it sarcastically read.
She also squinted her green eyes at him, Michealis Garcia? Wasn’t that the leader of the football team? Ugh.
He laughed before leaning towards her. She visibly grimanced.
“Ah, have you became even more funny?” He grinned.
She grimnaced more and finally took a good few steps back. She pinched the bridge of her nose for a second before typing something else.
‘i would hope so? anyways, see you.’ she quickly flashed before practically zooming out of the cafe’.
The black haired boy frowned as his eyes followed her until he lost her. How annoying. He narrowed his eyes before joting when someone nudged from behind him.
“Excuse me? Your blocking the door.” They bluntly said.
Michealis just moved aside and watched as they nudged the door open with their elbow. This was due to them carrying a large box with a smaller box on top.
The door closed again and he sighed deeply before walking out of the store aswell. Hopefully Autumn hadn’t wandered too far.
Speaking of, the said person was weaving through the crowds again. Maybe they should just call Summer while they were at it. What time was it again??
They glanced down quickly as the merly clicked the on button and saw the time, 2:00 PM. So as much for hanging out right? Oh well, they were going to be in the city for a couple months.
Maybe the younger should have felt worse, but she really didn’t feel anything. She just kept walking before finally sitting down at a open bar place.
They had bar stools, on the open side-walk and the open bar also faced outwards. It wasn’t crammed, like there was just a random bar jammed into the crowd. It was off to the side like all the other shops.
“What can I get for you?” The bartender asked.
The orange-nette simply cleared her throat and leandd forward. Hopefully her voice was back by now.
“Uh..do..do you sell uhm..like white wine by the bottle.? Along with wiskey?” She asked.
Yeah, the girl liked to down some hard whiskey and wine. And even better was mixing them, which was probably bad for her gut.
“Whiskey and wine bottles?? I can do that, but first I need to see an ID, of course.”
Autumn was really jumpy all of the sudden and flinched slightly. The worker seemed slightly concerned, furrowing their eyebrows. She quickly shaked her head though and found her ID.
It was the only real thing, that well, provded she was real. That’s why she was sometimes scared while she was stabbing a guys vocal chords out, what if she got caught?? No dobut the court of law would look for her legal documents.
“Alright, here you go.” The bartender handed them back ther card and they shoved it in their bag.
They shuffled and flinched immensly when someone slid into the seat next to them.
‘HOLY SHIT’ they yelled in their mind, ‘CAN I NOT GET A FUCKING BREAK?!’
They spared a glance towards the person next to them, only see..
“YOU?!!” They blurted out.
The man laughed, Michealis. His demenor didn’t seem to change, however it was kind of creepy he kinda’ followed them here.
“Yeah, me! You surprised?” He laughed out.
The former made a face and he snickered slightly. Could the bartender be a little quicker?!
“Soooo..did I wear you down so much that you needed a drink??” He questioned.
She slumped over the counter slightly, arms crossed on it. An exhausted expression of annoyment rested on her face.
“Yep. So, go away now.” Drop the plesentries, creep.
Michealis seemed to be taken aback by this, blinking a few times. Before the same smile, but smaller rested on his face. However, his eyes noticeably shrank and dialated.
“Oh, sorry! Did that bother you?” She lazily glanced at him before picking up the two bottles of acohol and stepping down from the seat.
Before the bartender could even say anything about pay, she formed into the crowd. The black eyed male quickly followed after though and somehow fitted to walk beside her.
“Why are you being so rude to a previous friend? Didn’t your par-!” He rather agressivly asked.
They chuckled under their breath, typical. Pull out the parent excuse of manners and be an asshole.
“My parent’s were acholics, and not good people.” She smiled up at him before glancing towards the bottles.
Autumn had a hunch of what was going to come out of his mouth. And they weren’t responsible for what came of it, if he had the guts to say it.
“So..like you??”
“…” There it was.
The girl somehow manged go grab him and swiftly push him into a alleyway. A few people seemed to notice, but they just glanced at the acholoic drinks in their hands before losing intrest.
“Wh-hey!! Awfully fucking handsy!” He grunted.
The shorter stayed silent, swaying before swiftly digging their thumb under one of the corks of the drinks and opening it. They took a pretty good swig before sighing.
“You know, I usually don’t do this sort of thing. Only to people I need revenge on or I knew hurt me. And the-the funny thing is-I don’t even remeber you-AT ALL!!” They stummbled over their words, laughing slightly.
Michealis took a few steps back, glancing behind him every now and then. The long haired girl sighed again and came closer.
“God, you could’ve been such a nobody if you just kept your damn mouth shut. But no, you decided to be gross and come up and talk to me.” She spat.
The black-nette switched over to have fear in his eyes. Was she seriously demented?! Was she actually going to hurt him?!
Oh no, she wasn’t going to hurt him.
She was going to make him suffer.
In all honesty, her current thoughts were all jumbled up. Flashbacks and images from her past clouded her vision and didn’t help with the emotions she felt.
“Please! I’..I’m sorry..!” He aplogized.
And it clicked.
Now she knew exactly why this Michealis guy was all over her. He’s the one who found her body once it hit the ground at school. And yet he didn’t get someone to help, he just stared at it for probably twenty minutes before walking away.
“Your kidding me..” She whispered.
Why didn’t he help her?! Prehaps he could’ve broken the cycle right then and there! Then they wouldn’t have to fucking die over and over again.
“Ha..Ahaha!.. I know exactly who you are now.” She lightly laughed.
She came even closer, now the taller wasn’t able to move any further back. Her right eye darted all around his face before the other remained steady. Pretty creepy.
“Your the guy who was too much of a coward to report a body. Your the guy who practically was a eye-witness but didn’t say anything.” They hissed.
The ladder’s eyes widened as his ‘secret’ was revealed. Honestly, just how despreate was he?? It was really gross.
“Now I can’t feel bad about getting rid of you.” They mummbled aswell.
They tilted the white wine bottle and chugged it back quickly before doing the same with the whiskey. A probably painful display for most people, but it placed a wobbly grin on their face.
“Please..I’m so sorry Candell..” He tried one more time.
Her smile immeditally fell and she slammed the white wine glass into the wall beside her. This made a shattering sound and it became jagged.
The pine eyed female leaned over him, one hand messing with the weapon. An distant look was painted on her face as she spoke:
“Pray to some other god then.”
And with that, she brought the glass down on him. He screamed violently, but knowing the people of Valentino City, they wouldn’t even spare a glance. Blood quickly standed everything, slightly coating her face aswell.
She yanked the bottle that she had inlodged in his stomach out. Then, she grabbed him quickly by the head and twisted it slightly so she could stab the glass in his throat.
He screamed again but it was quickly silenced with noises of him choking on his own blood. The ginger watched as he reached towards her but went slack.
After a few moments, Autumn glanced down towards the weapon in her hand, her eye twitching.
“I seriously just wasted a good bottle of wine on you?! Talk about annoying..” She hissed, tossing the bottle back towards his slumped over body.
Blood was everywhere, on her face and hair. And espically on her clothes that now had spots just completly red.
They glanced down at Michealis’s body one more time before swiftly pinching the bridge of their nose. Whatever, they would just walk in the alleyways so that people didn’t get concerned.
They also glanced down towards their clothes and scowled.
“I fucking liked this shirt too..prick.” She complained before walking away.
“I’m very sorry, but I haven’t seen anyone who looks like that..” A woman answered.
Summer sighed and lowered her phone. She had tried calling her younger sister over a dozen times now only to not get an answer. She eventually started asking people on the streets.
“No..No it’s okay..I’ll find her eventually..” She reassured the woman, smiling softly before walking back into the crowd.
Of course, Summer wasn’t stupid. She didn’t go up to drug dealers, sex workers, or other people randomly asking where the fuck her sister was.
She instead, gravatated towards the friendly looking people. They were rare, but it was still surprising the amount of people she had asked.
Maybe it was the photo, the girl clicked open her phone and looked at it. It had Autumn with a surprised expression as they looked up from what they were doing.
It was still visible how many scars they had. The former scoffed and turned off the phone.
Jazzy music played throughout the streets as the sun lowered. It was now 4:00 PM and of course it was getting dark.
They faintly remebered the person they were looking for to stay inside at night. Of course, this peeked their curiousty, but they weren’t trying to be another victim.
A victim of what exactly?? Well, of the series of brutual murders that were going around. Men and woman turned up dead left and right, some had their throats cut out. Some had seviere bruising, just what exactly was this person doing to them?!
The person had to be serverly messed up, the victims bodies proof of that. It was like the bodies were the person taking out their mental state out on them.
The orange-nette grimnaced at the thought of becoming a victim. Yet, that was probably on everyone’s minds. This person was clearly a danger.
They blinked a few times, why were they so focused on this?? Autumn was more imporant!!
The older sister groaned softly and passed a crosswalk. She also flinched when someone slightly came up behind her.
“Summer??” A voice called.
It was medium toned, so she couldn’t tell who it belonged to. She turned slightly and saw bright blue eyes and soft blonde hair around a pretty face.
“Nari?!” She walked slightly backwards.
Nari was also aquaintated with the older sibling aswell. They had met once or twice, the older noticing how she was attracted to her sister.
“Ahaha..it’s nice..to uhm..see someone from highschool..” She softly laughed.
The same heighted girl raised an eyebrow at this. The nari she knew was much more..upbeat! Not extremely, but enough to be considered atleast mellow.
But the one walking behind her had eyebags, a thinner face, along with a sort of exhausted and almost wretched vibe coming off of her.
“Are you okay?” It slipped out.
The blonde blinked a few more times in surprise before smiling nervously.
“Oh..uhm..yeah just uh..tired..say!-do you want to eat somewhere? Or atleast talk??” She looked away before snapping back to them.
The green eyed female placed a lop-sided smile on her face and nodded.
The duo pulled to the side and quickly entered a shop. It wasn’t a cafe’, it just looked like a store where you ordered food.
“Do you want anything? I’ll pay.” Nari questioned.
The green eyed girl glanced at the menu and squinted. She leaned forwards before turning towards the other.
“I’ll take a veggie’ sandwhich with choclate milk.” She bluntly answered.
It looked like the other tried not to laugh as she gave her order.
“Veggie’ sandwhich with choclate milk, really??” She replied.
The ginger only blew out a puff of air and shook her head.
“Please..that’s why your somewhat shorter then me.” She smirked bitterly and leaned a little closer.
The blue eyed girl raised an eyebrow.
“Yeah? I think we level out though..” She simply said before turning away.
Summer smiled lightly, the other girl seemed more relaxed now. She could faintly hear her ordering some food before flashing a grin at Summer and making a ‘c’mere’ motion.
“Here.” She softly said before siting down.
They blinked, Nari always had a sort of soft beauty about her.
“Woah..” The other let out, getting a better look at her face.
As they said before, she defentily did look older. But she still had the cute freckles, and almost clear skin.
“What?” The said girl spoke up, a knowing grin on her face.
That was another thing about her, her eyes always scrunched up in joy from her smile. Sometimes her nose also scrunched up.
“You just look..simaliar to how you did back then..” They said slowly.
The blue eyed girl sitting across from them laughed. Her eyes closed and she held her cheek.
“Ah, charming, however..no matter how long it’s been, my heart still belongs to your sister.”
The older blinked a few times, eyes wide. Seriously?! Why was everyone chasing after their sister today?!
“Seriously?! You still want to date her?!” They gawked.
Nari was about to answer but an order name was called as she got up. She quickly walked over and picked a tray up before smoothly walking back and sorting the food.
“What can I say? Autumn has posion. Sure, she might be different now. But she still has that..aura about her..” She described.
The ginger only grunted before stabbing a straw into her choclate milk.
“Well, I have no idea where she is..” She mummbled.
The ladder had her sandwhich raised to her mouth before pausing. She lowered it slightly as she glowered at her.
“What do you mean?? You didn’t move here?” She questioned.
“Oh no, I’m just here visting Autumn. I’m also living here for a couple months.” She shurgged and took another chug of her milk.
Nari Jeong didn’t say anything for a while before completly setting her sanwhich down and staring at her. One hand held her cheek while the other tapped its fingers in a rythmatically way.
“Living here while the murders are at a peak..that’s sort of risky, don’t you think??” She asked.
Summer couldn’t help but agree. Yeah, it was risky. When Summer gave the driver where she wanted to be dropped off at when she first arived, he made a face.
“Yeah, but you live here too.” She answered before taking a bite out of her own sandwhich.
The long haired blonde leaned forward, fingers digging into her cheek. The mood switched suddenly, it seemed like she was on edge.
“Mm..hey, is something wrong?? You seem..tense..” The former spoke through their mouthful, kind of gross.
Nari sighed deeply and took a long look at the others face. What would they say if she spoke about what she thought was right? She wasn’t a dectective or anything..
But these crimes were unatural, the attacker had to have some mental stuff going on. There’s no way the female across from her did it. Even if she was mentally ill.
This person clearly was driven by motovation, by anger. By greif, by whatever THE FUCK. All of these people..were victims..
And they all went to the same highschool she did.
“Nari?” Summer brought her back.
She couldn’t take it anymore, she had to say it. They could get mad, hell, maybe even give her some crude words.
“I think your sibling is the one causing this murders.”
“…….” As soon as she said that, everything went pitch silent.
It was like both of them stopped breathing, their sandwhich held in their hands froze. Their expression blank as they took this in.
Before..
“What.” They blurted.
It wasn’t a question, it was a demand. A demand for the yellow-nette to explain just exactly what the fuck was going on with her head.
“Yes, I think Autumn Candell is the murder. Surely you’ve noticed it by now, haven’t you?” She contuined, gulping.
The other candell sibling only stared at her with bland eyes. It was like they were going through the possbilties in their head.
“That they’re all people we went to school with??” She finished.
Summer sat the sandwhich down and came dangerously close to Jeong’s face. This made the blue-eyed girl sweat-drop and lean back.
“Look, I don’t know what your fucking problem is. But if this is another fucking joke of an excuse for me to tell somebody more about my sister, I’ll add you to the body count. Stay the fuck away from me and Autumn.” She vemonsly whispered.
As soon as Summer stood up and harshly turned away, the other female grabbed her wrist.
“Summer-Summer!! Please just-just wait a second! The killer might be suffering from some mental illness, like PTSD! It could be anything really, aren’t you concerned?!” She tried to stop her.
The bright eyed girl whipped around and practically tore her arm away from the other. She scowled at glared down at her.
“So your saying Autumn has PTSD, now? I wouldn’t dobut that. But like I said, I want you out of here.” She hissed.
“So Autumn does have PTSD??” The younger whispered.
Green eyes only seemed to fuel with more disgust and irratation. She yelped when hands curled around her shirt, dragging her closer.
“So what if they do?! You gonna’ add that to your insanity theory, huh?? God, your a fucking physco’.” They said before roughly letting go and storming out the door.
Once she got her barrings again, she reached a hand out but she was too late, she always was. She glanced towards the shop owner but they were busy and had headphones on.
“Damnit!” She scowled.
“Nari??” Autumn called out.
The blonde flinched slightly and turned towards her. It hurt looking at her, she was so pretty. You could practically put a halo around her and it would fit right in.
“Ah, yeah what’s up?” She turned her attention to the shorter.
They smiled at her and handed over a box. It was neatly wrapped and had a blue ribbon ontop. She looked up and raised an eyebrow as they nervously laughed.
“Happy brithday..?” They said, a small tint of pink covering their face.
Ah that’s right, it was her brithday, wasn’t it? She grinned and looked at the cat wrapping paper.
“Thanks, I apperiacte it.” She spoke.
They grinned back and leaned forward a little. Nari Jeong couldn’t help but notice the ring on their left hand. A pretty emerlad green.
“Well?! Open it!~” They nudged.
The slightly taller girl only smiled wider and opened it. She blinked a few times before slightly squealing.
“Ah!! No way!! A smiths album?!” She freaked out.
Autumn smiled with her eyes closed and backed away a little. She was happy the other liked her gift. Even if Summer had told her to go with a Cars album.
“You’ like it?” She rytorchically asked.
The yellow-nette held the vinyl album closer to her and innocently smiled.
“I love it so much! How did you know I loved them?” She beamed before leaning forward.
The green eyed girl blinked a few times before tensing and blushing. Her eyes darted anywhere but towards Nari.
“Uhm..lucky guesssss’..???” She drawled out.
“Summer told you, didn’t she.” She deadpanned.
Autumn laughed even more nervously and blushed harder.
“Sorry! You just don’t talk about yourself much!” She apologized.
The other simply shook her head before sitting the vinyl down on her desk. The shorter nervously glanced at it, was she mad??
“Come here..~” She mummbled before grabbing her and leaning down to kiss her cheek.
She pulled away swiftly, grabbing her things and leaving the Candell sibling by herself.
“Ugh..” She groaned, grabbing her own cheeks, annoyed.
Autumn was silent as she sat ontop of the roof. She blacked out again and even more blood was on her clothes. She assumed she was on the rooftop of the old school.
Funnily enough, this was the same place that started everything. All her murders and deaths. She blandly looked down.
Jesus, to think they fell from this height. In the distance you could see lights and buildings blink and wink at you. She scowled and ran a hand through her hair.
Was it just her was she feeling light headed all of the sudden?? The bloody killer decided to get up anyways and swayed before panicking.
“Stop it.” She leaned away from the edge but it felt like she was slipping.
Her breath picked up and her eyes zoned in on the ground. Jesus, was the ground suposed to be looking that close?!
“Stop it stop it..” She breathed.
She scowled and pushed herself to sit down on a bench. Why was it like her body was pushing herself to the ground. Why was it like the rooftop wasn’t straight?!
“Fucking..” She trailed off, leaning her head back.
They flinched when the heard footsteps on the roof. Who exactly?? School was out and no one should be up here.
“There you are..” A raspy voice said, sounding like they had cried.
The ginger immeditally tensed and whipped around. Their eyes searched around frantically before landing on a person. They had blonde hair and big eye bags.
“What are you doing?” The voice asked again.
Autumn swiftly stood up, body still facing the person.
“Better question, what are YOU doing?” She repeated, bitterly.
They laughed a little more before sighing, they came a little closer. The orange-nette squinted before pausing.
“Nari Jeong?!” She blurted out.
The long haired other female smiled in relief. Yeah, it was her. She didn’t know exactly how she ended up here. Maybe to reminse.
“I didn’t actually think you’d be here..consdering and all..” She trailed off.
Autumn scoffed and backed away a little more. The ocean eyed other looked a little worried.
“I’m not scared.” She spat.
And true, she didn’t look scared. No, she looked angry. She looked frustrated and annoyed.
“Just..WHY are YOU here?!..” They tried to yell but it cancelled out at some points.
Nari Jeong frowned and looked away. She should’ve knew better, that they were angry. They were frustrated and tired.
“I know you killed them, Autumn..” She mummbled.
A gust of wind blew by, blocking her from seeing their face as their hair blew infront of it. The blood on their clothes soaked and coated the air with it.
“Can you fucking blame me?” She blandly questioned.
Yes, yes she could.
“Your actually killing-!!” She was cut off by them angrily grabbing their hair.
“SHUT UP!!’ SHUT THE ACTUAL FUCK UP!! LOOK, WHATEVER YOUR TRYING-HA- TO FUCKING DO HERE- ITS NOT WORKING!! YOUR JUST AN ANNOYING CUNT.” She glared.
The taller was geniuley taken aback by the hate in her eyes. It was pure, veomn, hatered. She had enough.
“You’ve always been fucking annoying. What, you about’..you about’ to fucking confess your love for me or something?! Damn right! Because everyyyyyyoneee’ JUST FUCKING LOVES AUTUMN FUCKING CANDELL!! HAHAHAHA-?!” She contuined.
“Instead of being a constant fucking pain in my ass, you could’ve helped! But no-your here! And annoying as fucking EVER.” She hissed, grabbing the ladder by their collar.
The girl stared at her with shaky eyes. Jeong leaned away and paled slightly.
“Stupid.” She simply whispered before pushing her back upright.
The blue eyed girl blinked before furrowing her eye brows. There was something seriously wrong with her..maybe it’s because she didn’t get proper help.
“Autumn, somethings wrong-!” She tried to start.
“What, with me?? Well, no fucking shit Nari! You wouldn’t lose your mind after dying five times over?!” She sarcastically asked.
The female frowned deeper and took a few steps back on her own.
“I..I just want to help..”
“Right. And what good do you think HELP of all things will do?” They quickly replied.
In all honesty, she didn’t know. She was just saying stuff at this point, did they know it?? Probably.
“I…don’t you remeber..?” She stummbled over her words again.
Green pine eyes shifted back and forth in confusion.
“Remeber what?”
“Us! Us, Autumn!” Her voice cracked as she quickly caught them off guard by grabbing their face.
“Hey, Nari!” The ginger grabbed the other girl’s attention swiftly.
“Hm?” She hummed.
She shoved something into her hands, she was tempted to think it was another gift. But when she looked down, it was a coat.
“I’m going up to the roof to meet Micheal, he wanted to talk about something..can you hold this for me??” She explained before leaning forward.
She didn’t seem the way her friends hands twitched or her hands. Nari could only flash a closed eyed smile.
“Sure. I’ll wait for you.” She simply said.
The former breathed out before grinning. She quickly waved bye before heading up to the roof.
When Autumn opened up the gate to the roof, they were greated by their boyfriend in all his glory.
“Ah, there you are my love.” He noticed.
She placed a giddy grin on her face and walked over. They quickly tucked a piece of hair behind their ear before leaning closer, hands behind their back.
“Hey, Micheal! What do you want to talk about-!” They started.
“Nari Jeong.” He cut them off.
The shorter blinked a few times, posture going a little stiff. The dark haired male raised an eyebrow.
“What’s wrong?? You don’t think I’m THAT dense, do you?” He questioned.
She glanced away for a second before furrowong her eyebrows.
“Micheal, what are you talking about? Nari and me are just friends.” She firmly asked.
He only rolled his eyes, scoffing. He leaned back and stuffed his hands into his pockets, looking away aswell.
“She doesn’t seem to think that.” He scoffed.
The younger quickly scowled and came a little closer. Micheal immedtially backed up some, whistling.
“You think I’m cheating?” She whispered.
The taller didn’t answer, eyes darting away. She scoffed out a laugh before running a hand softly through her hair.
“I’m not cheating, Micheal.” She hissed.
The dark eyed male seemed to have enough as he grabbed her shoulders.
“Just shut up, Autumn.” He groaned before kissing her.
The gesture was unwelcome, as they quickly moved back. They narrowed their green eyes at him.
“‘Just shut up, Autumn’?? Who do you think you are?” She angirly questioned.
“Uhm?? Your boyfriend?” He laughed.
She scowled again and took off her headband, undoing her hair. Her emerlad eyes flicked back and forth.
“Your not my boyfriend. Your not acting like the man I fell in love with.” She bit.
The brown eyed male blinked before bursting out in laughter. The ginger took a quick glance behind her before glancing back towards him.
“Uhm!- News flash, darling, men change. I’m not that sweetheart, sappy and somewhat flirty guy you fell in love with!” He sarcastically said before reaching towards her again.
She swiftly moved back again and frowned.
“What’s wrong with you?! Stay away from me!” Her voice cracked.
Why did this hurt? Why did it feel like her heart was breaking in two?? Why was he acting so lustful?!
“Please..stop..” She whispered.
He didn’t, he only came closer. Now both of them were practically on the edge of the roof. There was no gate protecting from one of them falling off.
“Autumn, I love you..you know that, right..?” Micheal asked.
The long haired girl glanced down before quickly back up.
“Do you?” She mummbled.
“Yes.” Air, whipping through her hair.
She was falling, why? She could feel her body lose control as her eyes stared up at the roof she had just been on.
She blinked before screaming. It was too late, her body had flipped around and she was facing the ground now. The ground had never seemed to threatening.
The ground was something to ground you, as it were. But when you crashed into it, it was scary.
They could faintly hear commotion going on, people stopping in place and then..
*CRUNCH, SPLAT*
It was sickening to hear, even to Autumn’s now fading hearing.
“AAAAAAAA-!!!” Multiple people screamed, some running away, some standing shocked.
Their body twitched in reflex, but they closed their eyes. Funnily enough, they didn’t really feel any pain. Rather more then confusion.
Didn’t..didn’t Micheal say..he loved them..?
Ha, shit..their brain was failing them now..
Damnit…
Well, whatever….people would probably mark..mark it as a..suicide or..or something..
And all went silent.
“Stop it, stop it, stop it!!” The now present time girl clutched her hair again.
Nari Jeong took this chance to quickly move her away from the edge. She flinched though when they practically fell over themself, on the ground.
“Get away..get away from me..” She whispered, laying her hands flat on the ground, hair blocking her vison.
“Autumn..hey..” The lighter eyed girl cooed.
The shorter flinched away and dug her nails harshly into the flooring.
“Stop it..” She repeated.
There was nothing Nari Jeong could say or do to bring them back. They were stuck in their own memories. Maybe for a couple minutes, maybe forever.
The blonde bit her lip and looked away. What was she suposed to do?? She could easily end all of this, turn them into the police.
But..
She glanced back towards the Candell sibling and bit harder.
Fucking hell..
She quickly took something out of her bag and wrote something down on a small piece of paper. She carefully slid it underneath the other female.
Through her haze of mind, and well, tears, Autumn’s breath hitched. A pale hand right out of the corner of her eye slid her something. It fell right under her chest and she looked down.
‘Hi, my name’s Nari Jeong! What’s your name?’
