    Summary

    The frustrated ranting trails off, and in a slightly weaker, more hesitant voice, he asks, “…could you… project yourself? For a bit?”

    “Wh-what?”

    John doesn’t quite mean for it to come out that audibly startled, almost hurt, but he can’t quite manage to catch himself before it slips out. He just can’t understand the request, unless—is Arthur trying to kick him out of their body? Does he want space that desperately, that he—

    “It’s, ah… well, you know how it drains me,” Arthur continues, probably oblivious to John’s thoughts. “I think I could… use that, right now. To—burn off some of this restless energy.”

    Summary

    In this moment, John could feel the electric sting like ants beneath his skin. It spasmed up his vertebrae and pierced gray matter to twist, contort, and crawl down again, latching to muscle fibers that folded in on themselves and turned to the blink of his eye.

    That was where the yellow could not hide. It was the rot in the vitreous humor.

    -

    Separate bodies won't grant them a normal life.

    The strange behavior of Mrs. Nellie Parrish introduces a new case for John and Arthur. They search for her truth while desperate to tell their own lies: those to themselves, and those to each other.

    Summary

    The delay is... more strange than the presence of the house itself. Raising a brow, Arthur prompts; "It's?"

    I don't know, John murmurs, almost mystified. It's not quite a cabin. It isn't...rustic, exactly, but it's-- simple. Straightforward. It has a... purpose.

    "What?"

    What? Oh. He huffs. I don't know, Arthur. It's a house.

    (Or; bad weather delays them from reaching Albany and continuing their trek downstate. There's something off about the house they stumble across. It wants to give them what they want, which is unfortunate, considering Arthur is less and less certain about knowing what that is.)
