cut our teeth and make our bones right here

Remi

Welcome to the wild, no heroes and villains
Welcome to the war, we've only begun

Remi's eyelashes flutter slightly, though beneath his eyes have all but rolled back into his head. He feels sick with power and hunger and gods the more he thinks about it, the more he's sure he could kill them all. The warmth of their imaginable blood is almost tangible on his fingers, but...no, that's just his own, already growing sticky as it clots.

"More of us than you." The soldier replies, squaring up slightly and raising his jaw. "Ain't no white coat comin' cause they expect us to do our jobs. Now, are'ya gonna let us do it?"

The words rattle around in Remi's brain; his shoulders twitch as his upper lip flinches. He tries to think of something else, anything else, but all he can come up with are decontamination showers and crisp white sheets that were badly in need of fucking fabric softener. Running a hand across his forehead in faster and faster swipes, Remi begins to shake his head no in response to the voices in his mind.

Yes, they whisper back. Kill them all.

Higher and higher you chase it
It's deep in your blood, go and take it
