[nospaces] [attr="class","pie"] does he think he'll actually get a letter out of this? probably not. but he gambles on it anyway, because that is what he does: like he's trawling the ocean bed in search for treasure, like he's sifting sand through his fingers searching for gems or a shard of seaglass sharp enough to cut — what's the difference, anyway? [break][break] nonsense. you do this because you want to.[break][break] so when dmitri laughs, the first thing serafim thinks, is: i should be terrified. but that part of him, he thinks, is locked somewhere at the bottom of the ocean, lost among whale carcasses and bleached bones. then, he realises he isn't.[break][break] whatever has crawled out from selwyn hale's grave is something that is learning to unstring the grammar of the ocean, to wear the beads of its clauses like a necklace of tangled kelp, to live within the spaces of its verbs: crash, drown, rise.[break][break] so, no, he doesn't look scared, despite how this entire interaction had started; despite how he knows he should continue to feel a healthy dose of fear whenever he's in the presence of dmitri wisbane. instead, he only looks somewhat wry at the rejection, because look — isn't dmitri still handing him a card?[break][break] nevermind that the card may as well be an invitation to his own funeral. it's cold to the touch; serafim holds it firmly nonetheless.[break][break] and then maggie's returning with all the force of a miniature hurricane, saying something about how he's going to die, and serafim thinks, oh, of course.[break][break] he's not entirely an idiot, though. he steps through the portal as instructed. he's not entirely an idiot, so he's already saying an instinctive "thank you" and "see you around", knowing he's the only one who will cross through the portal.[break][break] still, he turns around and watches until it closes before he leaves.
