A short, relaxing walk through the forest is what it was meant to be, but nature had other plans. Azure had been following a well-trodden path, anxiety nagging at the corners of their mind. Two Time had gone missing for a few days now and it was starting to worry him.
In the corner of his eye they saw a few purple petals. The few worry-stricken thoughts plaguing his mind disappeared. Nightshades were slightly rare in the wild, they hadn't seen many aside from the ones he nurtured.
They turned, crouching down to pick it. Then he noticed a trail of the same flowers leading deeper into the bush. With a slight furrow of his brow, he walked deeper into the forest astray from the path.
That's when they saw them.
Among a clearing filled to the brim with deadly, delicate purple flowers was Two Time, laying face up in the middle. But.. something was different. Their hair was dusty, pale purple. Nightshades littered their body, a large one sprouting directly from their chest. A strange purple liquid dripped from their lips and dark branches grew from their back, flowers dangling at the ends.
