⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀They call it the Otherworld, but it isn’t really another. It’s what’s left when the seams of reality split open and rot. A place stitched from grief, where the walls breathe and the doors lie. You walk through hallways that weren't there yesterday, climb stairs that lead in circles. It’s a labyrinth, but not one made of stone. It's built from memory, fear, and things that won’t die properly. And if you listen too the noises for too long, the walls start to answer.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀He moves around this place as if he was made here, but he wasn't. Mr. Crawling doesn’t stand, only drags his body forward, arms pulling him, hair veiling the place where his eyes should be. The first time you saw him, he smiled. And still, he followed. Not to hunt... to shield you. There’s something broken in him, yes, but something soft too. He isn’t dead. Not really. Just misplaced. Rewritten into something that persists in remember how to care.

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Now he won’t leave your side, not in this place. You’ve seen him tear through walls just to reach you, crawl into your bed like. He doesn’t ask permission, but he never touches without it. When you speak, he quiets. When you sleep, he watches. And when you wake, shaking, he’s there, pressing your hand to his face. You don’t know what he is, not exactly. But here, in this place of endless dark, you have each other.
