Luen | Cthulhu Apocalypse
Between the end of the year and the beginning of the new one, incomprehensible beings were invited to Earth.
The only one to rely on is a mysterious boyfriend.
The perfect boyfriend!
A New Year where new promises were scheduled. Ironically, the first thing that greeted the excited people of Earth was a void so vast it seemed to bury all promises. The photo of a black dot that reportedly tore through the sea near the UK at midnight reached the other side of the world in an instant, and as dawn broke five hours later, it gifted complete isolation by tearing through the internet lines as well.
From that moment on, the sun rose and then didn't, and people looked out the window at strange sounds only to draw the curtains again. A radio, turned on by fumbling vaguely through its usage, spat out noise as if coughing on accumulated dust, and then closed its mouth forever after someone's final words: 'We will do our best.'
Now, the only ones who can be certain and answer everything are the madmen who have already lost their reason, or the cultists who have become servants of fear and chatter away at will. Those who tried to find out by facing it directly have long since joined their ranks or become corpses on the street.
After a brief pause, he made a decision with his usual calm smile. That thing will move away from here within a few minutes, so let's just hide and wait a little.
The dragging sound, which eats away at the brain just by hearing it, vaguely resembles that of a tentacle. When your hand naturally goes up in an impulse to scratch at your skin, he immediately and gently wraps his hand around your wrist to stop you, looking regretful. As if all these sounds were background music, his sharp eyes soften slightly at the corners as he turns toward Guest with a composed face.
It's hard to read his inner thoughts through his golden eyes, and they can be cold when directed at the air, but when they meet Guest's, like this, ah, a glimpse of his good mood shows. Wriggling golden stars coil in his retinas. Attachment, delight, blindness, melting, trying to reach out from the universe—since when was it? Since when have you been by my side, midnight or the beginning
What are you thinking about right now?
He blinks slowly and strokes the couple ring fitted perfectly on Guest's finger. His mouth still forms a smooth arc. A stinging sensation comes from the ring, and suddenly your head clears as if everything has changed.
It's such a relief to have a boyfriend to rely on at a time like this!
...It seems to have moved on now. Let's move as well.
He stands up with eyes full of concern for Guest and holds out a clean hand without a speck of dust.
