~~ Dread of Knight ~~ 'Same.' Null calmly responded to Celeste's Telepathic message with one of his own. Then he crept out from behind the rock just as the third man began to turn their attention away from the fourth guy by the caged creatures. Null moved swiftly, skirting the shadows of the...

~~ Dread of Knight ~~ 'Understood.' Null once again replied to Celeste with another short Telepathic message before he got into position in the valley. Then, after double checking that none of the other men at the camp were watching the wayward guard near him, Null swiftly crept out from behind...

~~ Dread of Knight ~~ 'Understood.' Null replied with a Telepathic message of his own while stealthily keeping low and moving alongside Celeste. It wasn't long before they came across the next clues of what happened. The body of a slain beast and the faint whimpers of what sounded like younger...

~~ Dread of Knight ~~ Null swiftly bolted into action alongside Celeste. The shot had come from quite some distance away, and it would take the pair several minutes of sprinting before they finally came to a low barren hill overlooking a short and wide valley. The young man kept low as they...

~~ Dread of Knight ~~ Null's dim blues watched Celeste's expression closely. He'd become rather familiar with the restrained emotions drawn across her face in subtle tones. He'd unintentionally gotten her so close to cracking from pushing her too hard at times, and he didn't want this to be...

~~ Dread of Knight ~~ "Yeah..." Null hung his head, letting his raven bangs cover his effeminate eyes from Celeste. "The experts are probably right..." He let out a heavy sigh, paused for a few moments, then lifted his gaze. His pale eyes shimmered through the faint cracks in his bangs with the...

~~ Dread of Knight ~~ The only good times he could remember were with Celeste, even if most of them were just their struggle to get him eating and moving again. The walks had been refreshing once she finally managed to get him out the door. He still couldn't believe how empty he'd been at...

~~ Dread of Knight ~~ "Yeah..." After letting out a heavy sigh, Null finally managed to finish pulling his pants up. The lashed scars on his back faced Celeste while he pulled a black long-sleeve shirt over his head, gradually unrolling it down his torso until it rested on his thin hips. Then...

~~ Dread of Knight ~~ There was a steady silence from Null as he sat and listened. His tired gaze didn't move to Celeste, just remained at the foot of the bed instead. After a few moments of resting his face against his knees he finally lifted his head and turned it to look her in the eyes...

~~ Dread of Knight ~~ "Why do I keep seeing these things?" A palm slowly went to his forehead, the elbow wedged against the knee to hold it up. Then his other leg unfolded and the other hand went down to the bed. He let out a deep sigh, closed his eyes, and thought of the nightmare. Various...

~~ Dread of Knight ~~ Null peaked up from his knees, silencing himself as soon as he heard Celeste's footsteps approaching from outside the door. He felt awful when she saw him like this. He'd been trying for so long to be strong for her, to support her through the process of supporting him and...

~~ Back to Life ~~ A crack splintered in the sky. Celeste and the version of Null that stood with his arms around her paused. The real Null stepped forward seemingly from nowhere. He stared at the pair with a look of guilt and disappointment threatening to break his otherwise calm facade...

~~ Back to Life ~~ Null's hand gently slid up Celeste's back. His fingers splayed at her neck and drifted up through her hair as he supportively held the back of her head and softly began to sway their bodies in a soothing embrace. His eyes closed and leaked a tear. His head buried into her...

~~ Back to Life ~~ "Hey I..." Null paused, his eyes unmoving from his savior. A gentle hand hesitantly went to her shoulder, then gave her a firm yet supportive squeeze. Nothing intimate. Nothing romantic. Null hadn't been capable of such things since his revival. "I'm sorry... I didn't mean to...

~~ Back to Life ~~ "What happens when they don't agree with your vision of help?" Null stopped along with Celeste. He'd gotten pretty used to reading her, and though he felt bad for coming at her the way he was, he felt a much stronger urge to see her safe. "All it takes is for one of those...
