Party Atmosphere

Axel had installed a new wall fixture, and it was still breathing. Zexion had watched as Axel had sat in peace, eating a bowl of strawberries, eying the man across the room viciously every now and then. It had stayed like that for several hours, the two of them sitting at a table in the hall, Zexion pretending to watch the revelers dance and kiss, and Axel not pretending anything.

Axel was a very unpredictable person. He wasn't dependable, he followed no schedule, and what he was thinking was what he was thinking and he let no one in on the secret. Zexion couldn't have guessed what Axel would do or when he did it; he was equally surprised as everyone else when he got up and rolled up his sleeves, though no one would believe him after the fact. Ten minutes later there was a man crucified to the wall and the entire hall was silent. (From revelers to revelations.)

Later they would have a conversation about it--

"What was that for?"

"He was staring at you when we walked in…"

--but as the ladies finally worked it up to start screaming and the men all dialed the police, Axel just stood, blankly staring at his minor disaster, eating cut strawberries from a bowl.
