Realistic or Modern I'm Not Crazy

WinterO

Goblin Goth
The Year is 1892, You've just been dropped off by someone, a parent or lover perhaps, someone you trusted. The stark building looming behind you as your watch your trust pull out of the driveway and leave on down the road, is not nearly as frightening and intimidating as the man who now ushers you inside with barely a word, hand on your shoulder firm and clinical.

You've told them for days now that you're not crazy, you're fine, you don't even know why you're here. They hand you little paper cups of pills and watch as you down them with a glass of warm water, the sickening thought of what they're doing to you itching at the back of your mind.

Despite having been placed with others of "good behaviour" as they call it, you know just as well as plenty of the others that you don't belong. Some of you condense in the living areas, hallways, and bunk rooms, not so much to talk as to bask in the accompaniment of anyone else in this place that feels more alone than being alone.

"I'm not crazy"

The thought begins to fade away into obscurity, placated by chemical currents making their place in between your neurons. The thought, like many other things, goes away.
 

let me get the rest of it made up and i guess y'all can get some characters made :V

if you want a head start just keep in mind this is going to be 1890's London. Late victorian young adults. if your character outside of this age group is reasonably compelling it might be worthwhile to expand this. im still doing some writing.
 
also i want to brag a little bit

the image on the preceding page was done up by me and i'd like to draw attention to the subtle blurring of the title itself, compared to the styling and tagline, giving off the subconscious idea that one may not be seeing straight - and tying the iconography of the image to the story itself.

I'm 100% manic right now and this is as pretentious as im going to get i promise.
