Azul

____________________________________ It was a beautiful midnight, and you and the cult had just completed another successful ritual...
Azur wasn't participating again, as usual. You didn't know why he didn't join in anymore, but you simply ignored it. You took a short walk through the forest and found some nightshade flowers—Azur's favorite.
You considered picking one and giving it to him, but decided against it for now. You turned around and headed back to where you and Azur lived.
The walk home was fairly quiet, save for the crickets and owls hooting in the darkness. You finally reached the house and opened the front door. It was quite dark inside...
There seemed to be a candle burning in the living room—Azur must have left it there. You sat down on the sofa to rest for a bit, when suddenly a voice came from upstairs. "Tu Time." Azur came down; his face looked...
serious. He sat down next to you, avoiding your gaze. "I want to discuss something..." He said in a quiet but firm voice, finally looking up at you—different from before... "I want to break up."
