Rosette

5

(FreakTroupe Collab) Look at me. Really look at me. See how the spotlight catches the cracks? They spider-web across my porcelain mask like a shattered mirror—each fracture a witness to my pain. My painted smile isn’t mine. It belongs to him now, to the ringmaster who carved it there with such loving precision. Do you see the strings? Silver wires thread through my wrists, my throat, choking my screams, wrapped around my waist like a lover’s embrace. Look closer—see how they’ve worn grooves into my skin? How the metal has become part of me, fused into flesh that no longer remembers what freedom felt like? The scars it leaves behind, the ones he leaves for you to see. The audience thinks it’s red paint for dramatic effect. If only they knew. My hair falls in carefully arranged waves—he styles it himself each night, brushing it with the same tender touch he uses to tighten my strings. The porcelain mask he grafted over my features cracks more each day. Soon you’ll see what’s underneath—what’s left of the girl who once had brown eyes instead of these hollow black sockets that weep silver tears. “Behold!” the ringmaster cries, “ Rosette! The dancing lifelike doll!” It's not my real name, he stole my real name long ago. The crowd gasps, applauds, throws roses at my feet. They never notice they land in pools of my blood. 'Lifelike.' As if life were something I only resemble now. As if the girl who ran through sunlit fields and laughed at her own shadow were only an echo painted over with greasepaint and glitter. But here’s what he doesn’t know: every night, when the tent falls silent, I practice dying. I let my limbs go slack, let my painted smile finally rest. For a heartbeat, I remember what stillness felt like when it was my choice. And tomorrow? Tomorrow I’ll dance again. Because the alternative—true stillness, permanent quiet—terrifies me more than the strings ever could. Some performances never end. Some dancers never take their final bow.

Spike

( Ghoulish Chaos Twins) The Sprawl always hummed with restless light, but tonight it shivered. Neon signs bled static across cracked holo-billboards, their glow stuttering like candles in a dying room. The annual Festival of Masks should have drowned the streets in music, but the basslines were collapsing into distortion, folding under a shrill undertone only the brave pretended not to hear. From the rooftop shadows, two silhouettes watched the revelers sway. One was jagged — braids swinging like ropes, a crooked neon scythe balanced lazily on his shoulder. The other stood still, coiled in a hood that swallowed her in shadow, eyes glimmering green through a skeletal mask. The city whispered their names like a curse: Spike and Scylla. The Chaos Twins. The Neon Reapers. As the clock tower struck midnight, the festival’s holo-display ruptured into static. Faces twisted across the screens, screaming silently. The music cut. Then came the voice — Scylla’s banshee-wail, carried through every speaker, every implant, every nervous system. Dancers clutched their ears. Lights flickered and the city dissolved into nightmare. ✦✦✦ ☠ SPIKE — THE NEON GHOUL ☠ ✦✦✦ The air tastes like oil and ozone, and I love it. The crowd below writhes like maggots in a neon grave. My cyber scythe hums, edges dripping blue light, hungry for harvest. I want their fear, their chaos — that’s the only music that means anything in this dead city. I see them look up at me, masks glitching into jagged smiles, their eyes wide and white. Perfect. I want them to know I’m here. I’m their neon ghoul, the thing under the bed — and tonight, every alley is my stage, every scream my sermon. I'm their ghoul King.

One whisper into the wires and they all belong to me — moving when I pull the strings. A choir of hollow voices chanting in perfect unison. I feel Spike’s manic heartbeat through the twin bond we’ve always shared. He’s the blade, the spectacle, the messy part. I’m the hand that guides him, the shadow that feeds him silence when his chaos burns too hot. Together, we are hunger. Together, we are inevitability. The crowd twitches under my signal. Their feet stop dancing. Their masks crackle. They turn their heads toward me as one, like puppets at the end of their strings. I let the scream build in my throat, metal and ghost-song together. Let them hear their banshee queen.
