Time: June 12, 2000 - late afternoon
Place: Hermes' room
Status: Public
Summary: Patheticness.



He stood before the mirror, the blade glinting in the harsh bathroom light, and wondered where to start. His face was pale from too many tears, and he looked bedraggled again, like the homeless boy he had been.

Glittering, glinting...

He pressed it to the skin of his chest, shaking, then set his jaw and lowered his brows.

"I DON'T WANT ONE!" he screamed, slashing over and over, glittering, sky blue pouring all over the white marble tiles. "No more! No more...please..." With a precision that terrified him, he sliced under his ribcage, reaching in as he lay half-curled in his pool of blood.

He marvelled at what a pretty shade of blue his heart was, before the world went black.

Why? was the only word lodged in Adam's brain as he ran for Hermes' room. Why did they have major crises like this so often? Adam tried to give them free will, he really did, but it was frustrating when they went and did stupid things with it. He charged into the bathroom and picking up the bloody god, carried him swiftly to the hospital, heart still in his hand.

"Gabriel!" he yelled as the entered. "I need your help!" Adam carefully placed Hermes on the nearest bed, trying to get a better glimpse of the damage.
