the hardest thing to me is facing the fear i live
no one can help me now, it’s under my heart!
While Xanti listened to the fox’s reply, the cheetah stood up and stretched. Front paws outstretched. Spine arched—pop pop pop of the vertebrae—and a scrunched face before xe stood up. Xe shook out xyr rear paws one at a time as xe meandered around the surgical table and towards the cell bars. “You’re more considerate than I expected. I appreciate that.”
The remaining three eyes orbited xyr head in slow circles. Like a living diorama of Mars and its two moons. Especially after an eye passed in front of Xanti’s muzzle and xe chomped it, too, not unlike a snapping turtle.
Xe sat in front of the bars. Xyr golden gaze swept over the title of the discarded book before xe took in Kane’s facial expression and body language. Seemed like both of them were in the mood to talk, eh? Might as well utilize this rare window of shared introverted socialization.
“I think Vale will be by in the afternoon for your project. Not sure when. Has to do with… ugh, some inquisitor job?” Xanti shrugged. Then yawned. “But I think I’m done for today.”
Xe blinked slowly. Then glanced around the doctor’s caves. Obviously, the prisoner shouldn’t be given anything sharp or dangerous, but most surgical tools fell in that category. “You mentioned something to Vale about… science experiments?” By the confused gleam in Xanti’s eyes, clearly Vale hadn’t communicated word for word what Kane had done. “I suppose it must be frustrating, being so close and yet so far—” Xe tapped a paw on the metal bar. “—from restarting your research. Maybe you can tell me about that, and we can figure out how to keep you from going stir crazy in there.”
Then another eyeball passed close to xyr muzzle, and xe chomped that, too. One eyeball left in its lazy, lonely orbit.

UNEXPECTED YET EXPECTED —
— i wanted to hate / i wanted to die / i wanted to see you sacrificed / i had to deal with the fear you gave me / but you fucker never tried to help me / i was jealous and i was scared / nobody ever replaced my pain / to say i’m not evil, to tell I’m not bad / too late, i’m lost in human nature / leave me be / set me free / leave me be / set me free / the hardest thing to me is facing the fear i live / no one can help me now, it’s under my heart / i’ll come to know the living, my demons are inside / i’ll bring them all to light / ———— emerged from the dark I come to life!
