Their skin is a sick shade of ivory, and their bodies so thin that you just know they can bend muscles that you don’t have. Skin to blame, their lips are permanently violet. Nails, too. Not eyes; those are pearly white.
They bleed blue, she once said…
… I now agree.
great description. spooky…maybe not the best word to describe it, but, I just like that word and it fits close enough. Especially the ‘not eyes; those are pearly white’. Cool cool.

Thanks! It’s actually from a piece that I wanted to make into a novel, but it’s years old now, and I won’t be picking that up ever again, but I did so enjoy the world that I had built, even if it was kinda sparse and never grew very big

Yeah I certainly know that feeling. It’s always good to sift back through forgotten material for the gems. I do it all the time.
