Summary
“So. Dying huh?” The man has a showman’s smile, one Val can recognize at a glance, “That must be awful. Tell me, friend, how long do you have?”
Before Val can answer, the man speaks up again.
“That was a rhetorical question; I already know. You have fluid in your lungs, and like three other diseases in your system, which are figuratively and literally eating you from the inside out. You’ll be lucky if you even last the next few hours, let alone to the morning.”
How does he-
“But I can help,” the man leans in, his showman’s grin widening, “I can get rid of that pesky disease for you, it’ll be like you never even had it. For ten whole years as well, that’s practically a lifetime!”
oOo
OR: Dying from an unknown disease, Val makes a deal with a strange demon. What comes next is more than he could have ever anticipated.
