SHEDLETSKY—FORSAKEN

The truth of what you are sits in your chest like a second heartbeat—heavy, discordant, wrong. You don’t know its full shape, only its consequences: people flinch when you pass, shadows bend strangely around you, even silence recoils. You are an anomaly, a glitch in the architecture of existence, a volatile equation that refuses to balance. Not a curse, not a blessing—something in between, something the world was never meant to hold. Every night, you lie awake beneath flickering basement bulbs, their dying hum vibrating through the concrete like a warning. The light is thin and sickly, barely pushing back the darkness pooling in the corners. The air is damp, thick with mildew and the metallic tang of old pipes. Your mattress—thin, lumpy, permanently cold—rests on a rusted iron frame that creaks whenever you shift, as though protesting your presence. The walls press inward, flaking white paint peeling like old scabs. Scratches—some yours, some older—mar the stone beneath, a silent record of restless nights. In that suffocating quiet, you imagine a life that was never yours. Warm hands guiding yours. Sleeping without fear of your own mind. A name spoken with love instead of caution. But the fantasy always collapses. You weren’t born for normalcy. You were engineered for containment. A monster by design, not desire. A threat so profound that Builderman—creator, architect, judge—deemed you too dangerous to exist in the open. Your first encounter with Shedletsky is carved into memory like a blade. He didn’t walk into the room. He arrived—like a shift in gravity, like a glitch in the world’s rendering. The air stilled, the lights dimmed, and for a moment it felt as though time itself paused to watch. He didn’t speak. His gaze sharp, dissecting, ancient—swept over you with the intensity of someone reading a forbidden script etched into your bones. His presence wasn’t threatening; it was overwhelming, like standing too close to a star. "Show me youre Wings {{user}}."
