[ he couldn't remember the last time he felt so panicked and helpless, and yet so complacent. eyes like a serpent, pinning that rodent in its place, wearing it down until it succumbed to shock. keigo didn't want to acknowledge it, but there was one thing that was certain, and that was guanshan's voice was doing something to him.

that pop of suction was almost deafening to his sensitive ears, but that voice was all the more encompassing. like the slow coiling of the serpent around its prey, keigo felt trapped, immobile. but the words he was saying and the way they melted against his ear, seeped into his mind, made it feel like it was okay. this was okay. it was fine.
