Reborn...

So... Pain hurts... Like a lot...

I've never really understood people rating their pain from 1-10. In my experience, either something hurts or it doesn't... I mean yeah a punch on the arm doesn't really hurt as much as say a knife through your arm, but...

Wait... Everything makes sense now...

Okay right... So... I've been... Er in a state of agony and in between consciousness and unconsciousness for a bit...

I'm fine now... Well fine is relative in this scenario I guess...

I mean I'm not in horrible agony anymore, but there are undoubtedly people who want me dead now...

Betraying the fears generally has that effect.

Now I hear you asking... How do you betray the birds inhabiting your body and not immediately get torn apart, well that's what all the pain is about.

Let me tell this from the beginning. So, after that last post...

Er I mean the last post that wasn't horrible pained rambling...

Anyway after that post everything froze. The birds voices inside me, everything. I became blind suddenly. The birds were cut off. Not being able to see again was a... frightening sensation. I thought the birds had abandoned me for a bit, but that turned out to be wrong. A hand suddenly grabbed my arm to steady me and a commanding voice told me to sit. I sat. Last I checked there was not a chair there, but there was now. The man told me he was aware I was in a bit of a pickle... His words not mine.

He said he could help me out.

I couldn't continue as I was. Even if I remained loyal the birds would eventually decide I wasn't worth the risk.

He was right of course. He said he could fix things... I probably should have asked more questions.

However, I knew this guy was what was suppressing the birds and if he left and they came back they'd know about this interaction and they'd definitely kill me... I think he knew as well. He told me if I wanted his help I just needed to hold out my hand. I did and I felt him grab my hand with his. It felt like it was wearing a glove and then everything went black. When I woke up I was somewhere else. I could see again, though my vision was blurry. I couldn't hear the birds. The man was nowhere to be seen. My laptop was nearby and then the pain hit. It was excruciating. Just like... the worst pain. I suppose I shouldn't have expected the feeling of having my body unhollowed to have felt nice though.

Also yes that is what happened. I don't know the exact amount of time it took...but I made that post at some point during it and it only stopped an hour or so before this post. So, what was it. Reversing the process. Unnesting me. The birds are gone and apparently I have eyes now... and a face... Kind of unfortunate... I liked being faceless, but I guess if I'm not a nest not having a face would be pretty detrimental.

I guess I'm human now and even the burns are gone. I'm back to before the fire. Which is... good I guess...

Of course very likely the birds are now going to try and kill me as are all the others who just hated me anyway... Luckily being human doesn't suddenly make me some pansy. I'm still The Faceless... Er Faced... Fuck it no I'm still The Faceless Bastard...

Oh and I'm still gonna come after you 3 and 4. You are not getting a pass on this, just because I'm not a servant anymore.
