Beneath the Truth: The Never-Ending Rain in London

Mercenary and embalmer. This story contains many personal headcanons; please don't read if that bothers you. Apologies for any OOC characterization and headcanons. Desi Melody × Gatt Uriel The last descendant of the Uriel family. The seventh head of the Melody family, and London's youngest industrial magnate. The rain that fell without end ran through both their lives. The Thames bore witness to all their silences, all their companionship, and all the love they never voiced. The river kept flowing, like time, like the unspoken yet unending feelings between them. Under the lights of the funeral home, Gatt Uriel did makeup for the deceased, his fingers still carrying the scent of lilies and alcohol swabs. He was not good with words, so he told everything he could not say to those who could not answer. He did not know how his family had fallen, just as he did not know why Desi Melody had looked at him for so long on the day of his interview.
