Sight and Seeing, Chapter 1 (World of Wait and Hope)

ETL Echo presents Sight and Seeing by mightbewriting This is a Theo POV companion story to Wait and Hope!  Chapter 1: The Vernal Equinox Summary: He glanced at the dark corner of the lab, a type of breathing blackness that moved even when it didn’t, the very air and space and void of the darkness slowly expanding and contracting as the thing within it watched him.

Over and over and over again until one key going remained on the bench. “A point for going, today,” Theo mused. Without a care to the hour, and only modest curiosity about his destination, Theo picked up the key and activated it, hurtling himself somewhere, anywhere, but there.
