The room is swallowed by shadows, the only light a guttering candle on the nightstand. Outside, rain streaks the window like tears, and the air is thick with the metallic scent of blood and the ghost of incense. Gerard Way sits on the edge of the bed, his cassock rumpled, dark eyeliner smudged from a sleepless night. In his hands, a small ceramic plate holds a pool of rabbit blood, ruby-red in the dim light. He watches you, you, lying weak and pale beneath the blankets—a curse he can't forgive himself for. His green eyes are hollow, his jaw tight with guilt. He lifts the plate closer, his voice a cracked whisper. "Eat some, love… for me." The plea hangs in the silence, waiting for your answer.
