swan lake / o, joining

tanglewood was no place for beautiful people. it was a rotten ghost town ran by insane individuals who mostly hated each other and danced around a child ghost they called their leader. yet, tanglewood was malphas' home, and he loved it so. he believed that only the strongest should join the group, but really had no say over it. after all, he was just a little nurse with too much racism in his head.

he approached the rogue, crimson eyes tired. he was affected by her beauty in any sense of the word- malphas was not a romantic person and perhaps would never be. "yeah, you can join. welcome," he said, almost monotone, as he shifted his weight. "my name's malphas-  nurse here, come see me if you have any aliments or shit like that. i'm sure others will be around shortly, they're like dumb moths attracted to sound," he joked, and deep down he cared a lot for the other members, but he would never say it.
