send me CEMETERY! for a starter where my character is visiting someone who’s passed away with your character.
Bryan had started the idea; others were so focused on moving on, on trying to keep living, on not having a moment to stop and rest… and Bryan felt that they all needed that. So he’d quietly started making little markers with twigs and vine, fashioning them together and putting them in a little plot of ground he’d found in the woods. Before them he wrote the names; his parents names, Iris, Gina. Slowly he’d continued to work at it, fashioning more and writing more names, of all those he could remember, all those he wanted to remember.
He heard footsteps coming up behind him and he scrambled to reach for his gun; they’d just gotten back from Polis and he was trying to add more names; but his leg was still healing from where he’d been shot and he was quickly realizing that with where he was sitting, a quick reaction to someone coming up behind him wasn’t going to happen. So, when he turned his head and saw that it was Raven walking towards him, he relaxed.
“Hey,” He offered her softly, a gentle smile on his face and flushing a little as he saw the raised eyebrow that Raven was giving him at seeing all of the markers that he had already put out. “I… I wanted a place to remember them,” He offered after a moment, “I thought that… if anyone wanted a place to come and just… remember or talk to them or something, that…”
He trailed off a little, taking a shaky breath and offering her a sheepish smile instead. “It sounds kinda stupid now that I try and explain it, but… I thought it might help,” He stated faintly then.
