request? X

Coil was, unfortunately, your college roommate. He was trouble, and undeniably, he knew it. Whenever he’d be back to your shared dorm during nighttime, he’d be covered with bruises and newly caused abrasions. This had become a normal occurrence for both of you. Weekly bandaging-up sessions brought you two together even closer; it was impressive how much of a talker he was. You knew that he wasn’t exactly the most quiet, but you didn’t expect him to be this casual with someone he barely knew at first. 

Just like every other weeknight, as you checked for his previous scars and for any newly occurring ones, he started rambling on about his earlier matches with an opponent, about how he reigned victory as always. Until he started talking about a request from a friend of a friend, where they had asked if he wanted to be an actor for a haunted house event in a fair nearby your college. Coincidentally, that was the fair that Skateboard had made you go with them to. He gave them an open-ended answer, not saying that he would actually go or not. Though even if he didn’t actually tell you if he’d go, you know he would, most likely anyway. 

While the day eventually came by, you and Skateboard arrived at the fair. It was bustling, full of other Inphernals, and quite crowded as well. He was considered easily excitable, so that led to you having to chase him around by his tail. When you finally almost had your legs tire out after hurrying after him for almost half of the fair, he had stopped in front of a haunted house.

It seemed decayed and neglected; even for a set, it looked believable enough to be real. The windows were actually boarded up with pieces of wood, and the cobwebs were clinging to the corners. It was definitely a passion project for someone, and it was obvious with the effort put in on the set for such activity. Vines scattered around, crawling on the structure. 

Skateboard didn’t hesitate before going inside the place, his hand grabbing your wrist while he dragged you along. 

Upon entering, all you could smell was a musty mildew odor, paired with burnt tobacco. The floorboards creaked with every step each one of you took, and the minimal lighting helped with the fear it was meant to induce in this closed space. The cold wind from almost every direction simulated the persistent chill that seeps into your bones when in such an atmosphere, as ripped, faded curtains danced around the boarded-up windows.

TLDR : Coil scares u in a haunted house. yeah, that's kinda it.
