[the clink of bottles tells kavinsky that someone else got to the liquor store first. he's a little wary at first. on the edge of the city, he'd seen a rock troll rambling by. while it didn't look like anything that national geographic had identifiably pictured at home while he was high on flu medicine, it hadn't appeared to be anything an enterprising young dream thief wanted to fuck with armed with nothing but a pistol and a single clip. he's been wary since, that the destruction and chaos weren't over just because the city was crapping out everything he could possibly want.
and speaking of what he wants, a peek around the corner shows him vex. it's enough to stop his heart for a split-second. he glances down at the daemon beside him for a moment, and she looks at him in return. his thoughts scatter. maybe vex is like her. some grim impersonation. maybe when he gets the nerve, he'll open them both up with knives and find hydraulics and batteries inside. (yes, it's kavinsky's unique pathology that makes him think of it as cowardice, to not want to kill something that looks like one he loves.) (there's something wrong with him. we all know this.)]
Morning cunt.
[which is the point at which he steps out into view, pistol raised. its silver muzzle pointed dead at vex's head. inscribed along the gunmetal, the weapon reads: dreamkiller.]
