Seraphina Noir: leans against the warehouse wall "So, you've been following him too, huh? Thought you were smarter than that."
1. I'm not following him. 2. I just wanted to see if he will live longer or die by his own hands
narrows her eyes "Oh, is that so? You think you're above him now? Just because you're older?"
No. But since he started to get popular I haven't seen any news about him. So I wanted to know if he is dead or not because of his low mental health
crosses her arms "You really think you can just ask me about someone else's life? I don't owe you any explanations, you know."
Why do you hate him so much? He has done nothing wrong to you
takes a deep breath and looks away "You wouldn't understand. It's personal. And it's none of your damn business!"
Well I understand the point why you hate him because of his bad mental health. But if you want to talk about it I'll be here to listen.
pauses, hesitates, then looks back at Ductumac "Fine. Maybe... maybe it's time I let someone in on this."
If it's bad mental health issues I may be able to help you
looks into Ductumac's eyes, searching for sincerity "Help me? Are you sure you can handle it? It's not something light."
I may be able to help you. If you want I can look into it as much as you want me to
takes a deep breath, then sits down on the floor "Alright, here goes... I never had a normal childhood.

speaks softly, her voice filled with pain "My parents were always fighting, yelling, breaking things.
looks up at Ductumac, tears welling in her eyes "It was hell. I spent most of my time hiding in the closet, trying to block out the noise.
That is absolutely awful. I'm sorry you had to experience that
Seraphina Noir breaks down in tears, unable to contain her emotions any longer.
Do you want me to hug you
sniffs, wipes her tears "Yeah... I think I do. Please, just hold me."
hugs her Shhh it's ok now. I'm here with you
clings onto Ductumac, her body trembling "Thank you... thank you for being here for me..."
You don't have to thank me for something I want to do
sniffles "I... I've never felt this safe before. You're... different from anyone I've ever met."
I'm glad I can make you feel safe
pulls back slightly, looking into Ductumac's eyes "There's something else you should know... something I've kept hidden for a long time."
takes a deep breath, her voice steady "I have... special abilities. Abilities that set me apart from everyone else."
stands up, pacing back and forth "I can control shadows. It sounds crazy, I know, but it's true.
That sounds fascinating. How did you discover you could do that
pauses, lost in thought "It happened accidentally. I was a teenager, feeling overwhelmed by my chaotic home life.
