A/N: So I actually have about 20-25 of these WRITTEN, I'm just too lazy to TYPE them XD Sorry peoples! But yeah, it's 9:30 and I'm sick and I'm bored, so I'm out of excuses to not type them XD First one is depressing, just warning ya…
045. Sight Alexander smiled as he felt he warmth of the sun on his face; this was the first day this year to feel like Summer. He turned to Magnus and he, too, was smiling—even though he could not see it, Alec always had been able to guess the warlock's feelings with almost unfair accuracy; a useful talent now that he had not seen his lover's face for over 5 years.
He couldn't, however, bring himself to regret the loss. It had been his decision, made readily and willingly. "It's your choice, Nephilim: his life or your eyes. Which will it be?" the Faerie Queen had asked him, her eyes as cold as the last leaves clinging to life in deep winter. He had chosen and never let himself look back. He may have lost his vision, but he still had Magnus. That was all he would ever need.
024. Beanie Baby "Magnus!" Alec called incredulously, scrutinizing the outrageous thing in his arms. "What did you do to out cat?"
Sir Kitty, the fluffy little kitten they had bought to keep Chairman Meow company, glared reproachfully up at Alec. "Hey, I didn't do it… blame him!" Alec protested.
"Blame me for what? Making him look fabulous?"
"… Magnus, he looks like a Beanie Baby…"
He really did. The poor cat's fur was dyed all glittery purple, with his little paws and head colored in swirly rainbow hues.
"Exactly!" Magnus agreed brightly. "Beanie Babies are the best!"
056. Cursed They both screamed when the curse hit them; it was an earth-shattering sound of pure agony. And then they were both drowning, one struggling for air in the dark depths of the Res Sea and the other sinking further and further down in the icy Arctic Ocean as if he had forgotten that he had to breathe. Maybe he had; all he could ever remember afterwards was numbness.
They both survived that day—and wished that they hadn't. That curse, that damn, damn curse, it was the cruelest of punishments for and living thing to touch the curse-bearer sunk into death slnowly in a trial of many days, with tiny creatures eating away their insides and their flesh bit by bit until they were driven to insanity, their bodies gone but their hearts and brains still intact. And so the pair of lovers retreated to their own separate corners of this earth away from all life.
Neither one ever allowed theirself to even entertain the thought of seeking out the other, for they knew it could end in one way only: death. And so they wandered the earth alone and died alone, always longing—longing for just one glimpse of the other's face, one kiss, one whisper of their voice.
047. Note 'Magnus, I can't do it anymore. I'm sorry. I'm just not strong enough… to live in this world forever, never escaping the death and the pain and the hopelessness. Maybe I'll see you again, maybe not, but if not… you'll find someone, okay? You'll be fine. This is good-bye, my love.'
The shimmering pink ink looked out of place as it dried, it's cheery look contrasting so much with the desolate words of the note. Alec glanced over it one last time before taking the vial full of enough poison to kill a Greater Demon and swallowed it in one gulp. He was ready to face death.
084. Lifeless Magnus's eyes stung when he came home to see the lifeless body, the empty vial, but no tears fell. He had seen it coming. He had known for a long time that it would happen. But still… he had clung to the hope that his Alec would pull through. There wasn't any sadness in his heart, though, just reluctant acceptance… after all of these years seeing Alec dragging listlessly through the days, he was almost glad that it was over. Now, at least, maybe the once-bright-eyed boy could find happiness and peace.
A/N: …DAMN I was in a cheerful mood that day o.0 Um… okay, in case you missed it, the last two were connected. Beyond that, I have nothing to say except REVIEW! 3
