[ it gets easy to lose himself - and lose control - in this. especially being able to hear, clearly, the effect this is having. he used to think he'd never find an upside in the ability of some survivors to constantly run their fucking mouth, but time told him otherwise. david's never been the type to shut up, and that carries into this. funny how things work out.
that self-control is starting to give way now, though. he's pretty sure he can outlast david but one of these days that's not going to be true. the bites get harder, closer to breaking skin. his grip tightens, nails digging in where they can. he'd say something, but that would mean he'd have to let go briefly, focus, try to get words out ... and besides, at this point, anything he'd say would just break the intensity. he's sure it'd be enough to sabotage this. ]
