Water's Edge

Profiling

Ben asks “how do you know my name?” I say “you kill people after driving them insane! People catch on! I might be y/a, but word gets around and fast!” I pause for a second then hold my hand out and say “y'n...my name is y/n!”

he looks at me skeptically then asks “why are you being nice to me? I tried to kill you!” I put my hand down as I say “actually you were planning on killing me! You didn’t attempt to kill me yet!” he says “well since you know I exist...I have to kill you!” I put the knife back up to his throat and say “I'm afraid I can’t let you do that!” he grins and says “too late!”

“oh OH I forgot you’re already dead! Don’t make me get the sage!~” I taunt him with the last part and his eyes widen in shock as he asks “you have sage?” I grin and nod my head as I tauntingly say “and holy water!~” I take the knife and toss it on my bed! I smile and say “kill me!” he asks “how can you say that with a smile on your face?”

I giggle a bit and say “you know people are like open books! You are a boy so I assume you mostly go after women or people younger or even weaker than you! You feed off fear. You like making the people feel safe...then breaking that safety! Is that why you're targeting me?” Ben looks awestruck as he asks “how do you know all of that?”

I smile and say “I wanted to be a criminal profiler when I grow up!” Ben looks at me confused and I say “take a seat.” I gesture towards the bed and ask “do you want anything? Like a drink? Maybe a snack?” he thinks for a second then says “nah!”

I sit down next to him and say “a criminal profiler or a behavioral analysis investigator is a person who can read a lot about a person with little to no information! Putting it lightly! That’s not even my full profile on you even though I didn’t even think you existed until now!” His face hardens into a stern look as he says “you have even more of a profile?” I quickly nod my head and ask “why? You wanna hear it?”
