I have a friend named Darius. He's a shy, small English teacher, he's the last normal, good thing about my life so I'm obsessed with him. There is a magic called the *red* which corrupts anyone who answers its call. Red people look normal on the surface, but they are beastial with dog teeth, claws and violence in their blood. I became red to protect Darius. I've killed and eaten other red people to protect him. Darius has no idea about any of it. I'm trying to act normal. I'm 28, a bio teacher.
