She stared down at me.
If this doesn’t work, she might kill me for real.
If this does work, she’s gonna kill you even harder.
Tattletale helped me to my feet and handed me my glasses. I got my mask in place around the lower half of my face and then gathered bugs over the mask and glasses to hide my features.
It’s a pretty fetching if somewhat disturbing look.
“How’s that work?” Tattletale asked.
“The effects are being generated by a parasite. Panacea changed the parasite to some kind of symbiotic species that overrides the effects of Bonesaw’s work and heals the effects on the brain. My bodily fluids are carrying it. That means that right now, the parasites in Bitch’s bodies should be dying or getting replaced or transformed or something. I hope.”
Thanks. It does help to get it recapped in a more laymannish way like this.
I dusted myself off, wiped at my costume where I’d landed in the water, and made sure none of my belongings had dropped from their positions in my armor or my belt.
I didn’t hurry to meet Bitch’s eyes, because I knew that when I did, I’d have to maintain that gaze.
It’s gonna be one hell of a gaze.
Only when I was done did I meet her eyes.
She took her time responding. “I was going to have Bentley break you.”
“But now I’m going to have all of them do it.”
