TAKE TWO TABLETS ONCE DAILY BY MOUTH
NOT FOR RECREATIONAL USE
Thanks Doc, but it's my brain that's broken, not my eyes. I can't help but imagine some cloning-tech yelling at me as I read the all-caps font printed conspicuously on the side of the bottle. They're antidepressants - I know you're wondering - and yeah, they're mine. Funny thing, that I guy can spend 30 years wading through crap without shedding a tear, but when you give him immortality? Well... I guess eternal life isn't all it's cracked up to be.
I turn the bottle slowly in my hands while I muster up the nerve to pop the cap and do the deed for the first time; the damn thing is absolutely covered in warnings.
DO NOT TAKE WITH ALCOHOL
GÇ£F***in' hell...GÇ¥ I know whiskey isn't exactly medicine, but somewhere deep my body tells me that trading one bottle for another is the wrong move; I guess alcohol is every bit as convincing as they say it is. I shake a pair of silvery pills into my hand and stare at them hard for a few minutes before dropping them back into the bottle and twisting the cap on tight. Maybe tomorrow.
FOR: GHERIS,
HENRY JAMES
I take the black marker from the table in front of me and draw fat, blocky lines over my name, inviting back a flood of inked-over memories. It's certainly not the first time those words have been covered under layers of so much black.
When finished, I cap the marker and slip the pills into a vest pocket. It's already nineteen-hundred and my contact should be waiting for me. Business before antidepression, I guess. |

The only feedvack I can give you isn't very constructive, but it is encouraging. I don't really see anything wrong with this so far. Keep it up. |

Thanks for the positive feedback. I was going to post a part 3, but I think I'll start redrafting this and turn it into a sort of character blog or something instead. Will update soon. |
