tinhuvielartanisOkay, it's called 'Captive,' but I added that last bit because, to me, that's what this is. Jilldo has captured what can be true beauty in the realm of pure animal rage and sublime sociopathic calculation. I could watch this John Doe all day long, or until he decided to kill me. And, even then, I would be fascinated by his method and intention. I would perish as a student, in awe and in horror.

The doctor had a long wooden dowel in hand, which he used to rattle one of the chains. slowly, JD raised his head and stared not at the doctor but at me. I gasped slightly, forgetting myself for a moment. His eyes were startling, like a kaleidoscope. His stare was intense, like he was looking right through me. Suddenly, all I could hear was the sound of my heart beating as his eyes bore into mine. In an almost slow motion, the corners of his mouth turned up into a smile.
