"..." Linus stands in front of a mirror, looking at his reflection with deep intent. After killing his father in cold blood with the drink he selected, the Wine of Roses, he would ponder his actions now that he's the head of the family household.
But as he continues to look deeper and deeper, he would see a dark figure appear bit by bit...the more it appeared, the clearer it became as it grew taller and taller...until finally, it opened its eyes to a disturbing white hue, paired with a sinister grin.
"You enjoyed killing Father, didn't you?" It spoke, using his own voice. Linus said nothing as he simply looked at the shadowy image.
"Admit it. You loved watching the light fade from his eyes...the panic and sheer terror that his own son was his killer. You simply REVELED in his demise...didn't you?" The shadow's eyes and grin grew wider, goading Linus as he continues to stare.
"Or...perhaps you're not satisfied with only ONE ugly bastard dead? Maybe you want to find another to do away with...or two...or ten..."
Linus continued to say nothing as he stared...up until he heard his sister's voice, causing him to turn his gaze.
"Brother! Are you done in there? I really have to go in there!"
Without hesitation, Linus walked away from the mirror with a huff, opening the door to let Lily inside of the bathroom as he left...
"Father's death was deserved." He spoke in his mind.
