A/N - You win some, you lose some...
It's been about two weeks in this building and Mare is slowly beginning to think that maybe he was better off caught on his own in Mad's workshop.
Turns out everybody loves Bing which makes Mare public enemy number one. They're not even trying to be subtle with their angered glares whenever he's in the room. Then there was the time that Google caught him by surprise and threw the spirit against a wall, threatening to have him exorcised if he ever touches Bing again.
The only time they're even halfway nice to him is when Bing's around. It's like an unspoken rule. So most of the time Mare just hangs in the shadows around the cyborg. Out of sight, out of mind.
Even at the party, nobody notices him just sitting everything out. Nobody cares. Nobody invites him in. Then Jim's gone and Mare tries to tell them! He tries! He's seen that kind of thing before, but no one is listening. I mean why would they. They all just seem to look right through him and disperse leaving the spirit alone in the party room. Invisible, and ignored. Mare swears, it's like being at Fazbear's all over again, except nobody's ever happy to see him.
Everybody's losing their nut over the missing Jim and Mare just watches. If they don't want his help, then he doesn't give a shit. It's not like they can hate him any more, so he just follows Bing around as he usually does, the two of them eventually winding up on babysitting duty in the clinic.
Mare smirks as he watches Jim trying to break free from the handcuffs they slapped on him while he was still out of it. There's something kind of satisfying seeing the usually calm weirdo losing his shit and arguing and biting and scratching. Makes the world seem a little more balanced, y'know.
It's somewhere around the third round of arguments between Bing and Jim when the door is thrown open and Silver rushes through, a sickly Jim cradled in his arms. The little dude is out of it, his lips turning blue and his arm hanging limp as Silver carries him to the bed while Bing yells for that doctor dude and handcuffed Jim goes mad trying to break free.
The handcuffs somehow pop open and Jim's all but leaping to the other bed, throwing himself on his brother, clinging to him and begging his brother to wake up. It's a bit...much and Mare looks away. Emotional displays are really not his thing.
His eyes turn to Silver as Bing and the doc rush forward, Mare frowning as the hero steps back. Silver's fingers are twitching as he moves and then a tear begins to trickle down his cheek….a red tear.
"Bing." Mare can't reach to grab his attention and in frustration he shouts. "Bing!"
"Mare we're-!" The cyborg turns, angry, probably ready to tear the spirit a new one but when he sees it, he freezes as well. "Silver…? Are you okay?"
The hero looks at them and Mare knows, now he knows, what's going on here. He takes a step forward, carefully raising a hand in an attempt at reassurance and Silver takes a step back.
"It's o-!" Mare tries to reassure but is cut off when Silver opens his mouth, and let out a roar. Like an actual, feral, guttural, animalistic roar and they all jump back. The twitches are turning into glitches and the hero jerks, reaching his hands to clutch as his head before the air splits around him and he's gone.
"…..well that's not good."
