August and I have agreed not to speak of the last two days. Suffice it to say that Hellbunny developed a taste for sparrows and may have given a neighbor rabies. But Hellbunny is safely locked up now and Iām a new regular at the pet shop for feeder mice. I dread the day they ask me why I need so many. I may need to start rotating storesā¦.
Today though. Today I drew the Ace of Swords reversed for August. Itās clearly a warning for him, he needs to stop getting distracted and get to Hell to be with Evelyn. Itās his proper place in the world. Itās where he belongs. Also Iām losing my fucking mind.
āNo, Iām just a little burnt out I think,ā August said when I showed him the card. Heās gone back to wearing his jacket around the house, he chose black tweed today. He looked like a goth rockstar, lounging on the sofa in my office, staring wistfully at the ceiling.
āFrom what?ā
āI donāt know, unlife, I guess.ā
āHow extra.ā
āOh, just die.ā
āFine.ā
āFine.ā
This is unlife.
