and in the mirror, all midnight eyes [closed]
Who: Issei, Shadow!Waver
Where: The streets of Prospero.
When: The Dark Hour, November 26
Summary: In which Waver's Shadow teaches us all how to do the creep.
Rating: PG-13ish?
The Dark Hour was often a dangerous time, even without the threat of doppelgangers. Shadows were dangerous in their own right, and it was never wise to go out into it alone, or at least without someone knowing that you were leaving.
Those who knew Issei Ryudo might think him a cautious and sensible sort of person, and therefore might be terribly surprised to know that he made the mistake of going out during the Dark Hour alone. They might be less surprised to know that the reason he was doing something so foolish was to look for others who might have done the same as he was.
Everyone else in the town, though, had one particular advantage over him-they were not being followed by a Shadow that wasn’t their own. Issei, on the other hand, was very much being watched by the Shadow of a certain magus, whether he was aware of it or not.
This Shadow was not patient, but he was cautious, and even though he wanted to confront his quarry now-- that bastard, that bastard who was trying to take his Rider away, who the hell did he think he was, taking the attention of his King from him? - he would wait until he was far away from anyone who could come to help him. He didn’t want Issei calling for help before he had finished crushing the fucking life out of him, after all.
For the sin of stealing Rider from him, Issei Ryudo deserved death.
And that was exactly what he was going to get.
