บท 197: Weird Shit [#11]
[November 3: Dawn - Hawkin's Quarry]
Sighing a large amount of white smoke, Billy Hargrove, recently found to be a Chimera and bound to the boy sitting beside him on the precipice of the quarry of Hawkins- Victor Zunni Vermont, or Nwundy-Zunni as his name is in the Old Tongue. "So, these Devourer things are basically a human who became a Chimera through fucked up shit?" He summarized a lot of information he just received from Zunni, they've been smoking for a long time here in the quarry alone, just the two of them: "Essentially? Yeah, or Chimeras who have lost their way... that's why you aren't as bad as you think, y'know? 'Cause you'd become a Devourer... They essentially loose their connection to nature and make a connection to the Outside and acting as their agent to spread their influence in the world..."
"And what are those again?"
"Outsiders?"
"Yeah, those ones." Billy was lying on his back, face towards the sky as he watched the stars shine brightly, his head was on Zunni's lap but he was too high to care at the moment, too high to be scared of what it could possibly mean: "Well, they are the ones not from nature who seek to take over nature or are just parasitic to it." Or he eas too high or there were thousands of fireflies around them, illuminating their surroundings and giving everything such a romantic atmosphere- It felt awkward to think about it, so he decided simply not to as he relaxed under the touch of the taller guy: "My sister thinks we're dating y'know." He didn't know why but he just said it, and he didn't regret saying it because he could see the sudden surprise in those green eyes as he stared at him: "... Well, do you think we're dating?" That was a question he didn't think about at all-
"I mean, kinda? It's fucking weird to feel you all the time, just fuck you, weirdo fucker fucking fuck..." Zunni sighed as he watched those eyes pretty blue eyes: "You're just so goddamn pretty all the time and it makes me mad... I just wanna punch ya face until you bleed." Zunni chuckled, it was not a surprise to hear him saying that considering his broken soul and possible heavy trauma related to something in his house (Which he'll have to find out more about it, but he thinks is the father's fault- Oh, he has some ideas for that guy he's hurt Billy before, a lot of ideas), but he was surprised to see the few tears on the corners of his eyes as he stared up at him: "So fucking confused... Fuck you." He took the bunt and drew a huge breath of it, some of the ash fell on his face and burned his skin slightly, making Billy shake his head violently for a second: "Urgh." Okay, maybe drinking and getting high wasn't the best idea one would ever have, but Zunni only agreed to it because he can't get high or drunk, his Regenerative Healing Factor gets rid of the effects too quickly, so he'll permanently be sober.
Maybe with a really potent and potentially killing dose he could be high, but that'll need some experimental testing- Oh, Billy would love to try and get him high! 'And he'd love do other things too, but can't push him too far, or else he'll break.' He really might, right now Zunni was helping his soul to heal, which was one of the reasons Billy just started to get more comfortable and spill whatever was on his mind at the moment... "What is this...?" He muttered, eyes flickering to the hands that caressed his head, making Zunni chuckle out: "Affection."
"Disgusting..." Billy made a face and closed his eyes... "Do it again."
-Scene Cut-
[November 3: Morning - Hawkins High]
Billy Hargrove fucked up.
He sighed heavily as his eyes closed and a hand came to his forehead, a headache filling his mind as a conversation of a few hours ago came to his mind as he left his baby- his camaro. Max was looking at him the entire way, almost as if she couldn't believe what she was looking at! He didn't say anything, he was too deep into his own thoughts of how after he said 'Do it again' as a joke to the other boy, he was hugged and not let go for two hours and never had he ever felt so... Safe? Yeah, kinda fucked up right? From his experience alone a human being can keep constant vigilance for two days without sleeping, but being safe was so much unreal to his brain that he thought everything was a weird dream of his until he saw the tiny healing hickie on his neck and blood on his lips- Apparently he cursed Zunni to let go, and when he didn't, he bit his arm and that was when he brought him back to his room and wished him a good night's rest.
He felt kinda bad for it but also thought how angry Zunni must be right now, he knows what a normal human can do when angry but he has no idea what a Chimera- The king of all Chimeras can do once agry and he's so afraid to find out, because he's sure Zunni will beat the shit out of him later. 'I fucked up so fucking bad...' He walked in and froze once he felt a hand on his should and a voice cheerily greeting him: "Good morning beautiful." He choked on his spit for a second as he recognized the voice, answering with the same kinda flirting tone as his brain was yet to process what the fuck just happened: "Good morning to you to, gorgeous." Zunni smirked as his finger tapped thrice on Billy's shoulder and a small memory was triggered by such action- Them lying down on and looking at the starry sky, talking about something whe Zunni whispered in his ear: "Well, you don't need to say it- just tap three times, and I'll know." He didn't remember what that meant, but he knew it was something important.
'Okay, don't freak out yet-' He nodded to Zunni and walked to his forst class of the day, a silent promise to talk later- And the rest of the day felt fine, each time they met they would tap each other three times, on the shoulders, arms, necks, and sometimes head too which was funny the first time he did so to Zunni as he was spacing out for a moment, he took his hand and kissed the back of it, sending him into a waterfall of fucked up thoughts that all stopped once Zunni's fingers touched him or he tapped him three times in the shoulder. He remembered the way Zunni taught him a single thing- how to unlock the enchanted sense of smell, which he told him not to use it yet but Billy was a dumbass so he just unlocked it in the middle of the school!
A fucking nightmare.
So many smells invaded his mind at once that he saw colors, colors that were easier to categorize than the scents themselves, for him at least. 'Fuck, fuck, fuck!' He gripped his head as he felt blood go down his nose as a pain invaded his mind, people around him got closer to help but they just smelled so fucking awful! His nose was bleedig from all the overwhelming scents he felt, he was alert and ready to pounce on someone as his eyes bleed in red and his pupils dilated when he smelled a familiar scent, a calming scent that spread all over and around him- He recognized that from his biology class as pheromones, a calming sense overcame his panic and he let his hands fall to the side as that was all he could smell now: "Idiot, fucking idiot." He heard Zunni's voice as two large hands touched his head and he opened the eyes he didn't know he had closed- The first thing he saw was red, blood on his hands and knees, and ground, and chest and neck and everywhere! "Keep your eyes closed..." He whispered as he inserted something on his nose and came a burning pain, it settled faster than he thought it would.
"It's worse than i thought... I'll take him to the hospital." He said and Billy felt himself get taken into the arms of the bigger boy and carried out: [-What did i say about turning on your any sense yet? It's dangerous because it opens up the potential to damage your body, princess.-] Ah, Old Tongue? [-Don't worry, at least you won't have to come to school tomorrow...-]
-Scene Cut-
Definitely some shit was happening- Steve almost fainted with the amount of pain that invaded his mind when Billy started to have a nosebleed made him have a noseblooed! His head hurt while Billy felt pain, that's the worst part of his Empathy... With blood trickling dows his nose, Steve turned around only to meet face first into te long haird guy before him: "Fuck!" He groaned as the guy also fell, there was this pinge of pain that Steve instinctively tried to save himself from by lessening it, whoever was feeling pain instantly stopped feeling pain as Steve managed to "calm" their pain down to a numbness: "What the fuck...?" He opened his eyes and looked at the guy before him, he knew him as Eddie Munson, a Sophomore: "Dude, your nose-" Steve couldn't hold it anymore, he clutched his head hard before his mind went blank for a moment and an explosion of emotions destroyed the trained way he used to control himself- instantly, his eyes glowed with a bright white light before he heard a buzzing, almost static noise on his head.
"Holy shit." Steve's, or rather, Seven's power of Empathy is a little more complicated than just 'feel what others are feeling', it's almost 'control what others are feeling, take their emotions and use for yourself, they are batteries to control the minds of others.' kind of Empathy, which is why he can establish connections to other people and feel their feelings, and have those feelings influence his actions and see the world through their eyes, sometimes he knows why people are feeling like they do, almost like reading their memories. What just happened was an overwhelming amount of emotion (in this case, Billy's pain) made him lose control over his power, pulling people's emotions to himself and throwing it out, like a strong force disturbed a still lake, making all the water fly to the sky. "Holy shit!" Nancy and Robin came to his rescue at that moment, his nose was bleeding too as his eyes held the white glow as he looked over at scared Eddie Munson, who backed away from him and his glowing glory- "Okay, that's freaking but fucking cool-"
A few minutes later, he was sitting by the parking lot with his shirt off and a worried Nancy and annoyed Robin looking at him: "Okay, spill it, what the fuck happened Steve Herrington?" He inhaled through his mouth (Since he didn't want blood in his mouth) and said the theory he came up with in the few minutes they wasted to skip class: "So, you we saw when Billy just started to bleed right? You guys know what i can do, i felt his pain and it was so bad- But i also felt and saw why he was feeling so much pain!" Jonathan raised his eyebrows at him as he kept explaining: "I saw one of his memories, him talking to that Vermont guy and him saying 'Don't use it yet, it's dangerous.' before he started to feel pain and see different colors- And the smells, oh god, the smells were awful! Well, not all smells... That Vermont guys smells nice, he calmed Billysl down so hard i felt it too- Soothing, cold, and flowy like a cold still lake... That's what he felt like."
"Uhm, excuse me hat the fuck?" Oh right, Eddie was still here.
