Like a hole in the head

[Private to Riddick]

I want to try something.

[He sounds a bit - strained.]


[Public, video]

[It's never comfortable, being stuck full of spikes. But it is even more uncomfortable to be full of spikes and simultaneous feel full of holes. He plucks one of his own eye spikes out just to ease the discrepancy, his hands clenching around the heavy length of steel.

Marsh can't see anything on the screens, but he turns it to video anyway, dark red blood trickling down his cheek from the dark black hole of his empty socket. Whatever keeps the wounds neat and bloodless in the normal course of events is void with the spike removed. He gestures toward the camera with the sharp tapered end of it. Despite the grotesquerie, his posture isn't threatening - it's a little bit schoolmarm-ish, a fussy librarian with a razor pointer. His jaw is clenched taut.]


Whoever is pulling pins out of their doll. Should stop.

It is disconcerting.

So whoever has a hold of these dolls, the person they look like feels whatever torments they inflict.

And considering how creative some of the people in this place seem to be when it comes to violence...

Small favors. Very, very small mercies. But now I know why I can't shake the feeling like my arm's dislocated.

For once I guess I can't complain too hard, when it's that painfully obvious someone's got it worse. [Because, seriously. Eye spikes.] Thus far anyway.

Things might get...interesting, once people actually realize what they're doing.

No. It is, in this case, a euphemism for "violent and extra destructive".

It's not the sort of thing to which I generally aspire. More incidental, really.
