Description:
Death is not an unfamiliar shape to him. He’s intimate with the curves and cutting lines it makes upon a body, a soul. Ayato has grown with death’s hand on his shoulder, sliding down his arm, twining their fingers together. He’s grown with it weaving itself into the shapes of his limbs, the curvature of his spine, the interwoven network of fibers that knit together over bone and vulnerable organ to craft muscle, skin — flesh.
