Skyrim’s new freaks

Cress immediately calmed when he was grabbed and peered up at Marnenyen with his eyes nice and tender, he had nothing against her and so he gave a soft smile, yet….the moment she called him a moment his eyes widened then tears started to form, he whimpered and immediately lowered his head like a beaten dog and hastily fled down one of the many tunnels winding deeper into the mountain, he sniffles and effortless weaves in and out of the crowd, he had been called many things but it also hurt for he himself was insecure, he fought every day with his inner demons and traumas.

He neared an empty room and was quick to curl up on the cave floor and soft whimpered, shaking as his mind kept swirling, 'YOuuu aRe A FeeAakkkkll A MoNsssTEr~' a deep, gravely voice spoke from the depths of his being.
"C-Cress knows, please stop….please stop…..don't want to feel pain…."
Cress whimpered to himself and started to cry, 'Kehewhh So WeaK……So BRoKen~ lEt Me tAke OvEr~ LET ME TAKE OVER!!!!!', the voice kept crying out in his mind.

Watching the little jester dart off down the dank tunnels, Marnenyen exhaled coolly. She doubted she was going to make it very long in such a bizarre place, the inhabitants equally so. She still felt bad, and it was a nasty, foreign feeling: one that tore at her insides and made her throat feel tight. Her subjugation included scoffs and cross looks, judgement but never spite.

  Tossing one last glower towards the brutish Nord, she strode after Cress. Her posture was still elegant, although her gait held an unnatural weight as she pondered her outlash. She had difficulty making her way past hordes of people, shooting glares at anyone who dared to meet her eyes. When she finally stumbled upon the man, her expression darkened, leaning against the smooth slate wall to watch him, "Cress, come on, fool. I didn't mean it, you're just as normal as anyone else here."

Cress was still curled up on the cold cave floor then heard Marnenyen speak, he shook in place and was a completely wreak with his face soaked in tears and sniffled often, he kept hearing the voice and tried to his best to hear his own thoughts but atlas, it wasn't easy sharing a body with something so otherworldly.
"B-but Cress is a monster!"
He squeaked in a shaky voice then deeply exhaled, smoke emerged as he did so.
"Should…have let the other beat Cress…oh wait, Master must want to best Cress now!"
His eyes widened and he slowly sat up with covered his face.

It seemed no matter where he went, the one he works for takes advantage of his timid nature and will beat him for their own sick game, he slowly stood up and tried to calm his breathing but the tears kept rolling down his cheek, he stared at the wall in front of him in remembrance of what may soon come.

"Who's 'master'?" She queried with an embowed eyebrow, back to her usual grimace. "And you aren't a monster, you're just a fool."

  She wended her way over, crouching on her haunches and awkwardly putting a nimble-fingered hand on his shoulder in an attempt of comfort. Marnenyen avoided his gaze for the most part, feeling her chest tighten into knots at the situation. She hated comforting anyone but herself and the guilt added to the mix made her stomach bubble a nasty potion of a feeling.

"Oh Master is the owner here"
Cress answers then winced when touched, yet he relaxed when noticed he wasn't being beaten and peers up at Marnenyen and gave a little cute, demonic chirp.
"You're the nicest to Cress!"
Sadly this was true, everyone else tosses him around like a used toy and it shows, the way he seemed to brighten with joy at the little actions.

"Ohhhh want a sweet roll???"
He asked with gleaming eyes, he really did love those pastries, and to think he was such a small man.

She rose to her full stature and felt her frown deepening at his compliment. Certainly, she wasn't typically a very kind individual. In a way, she felt for this poor, deluded little stranger. Clearly he wasn't having the best time at the freak show, despite fitting in among the crowd she had expected.

  Marnenyen didn't reply to the question he asked, only reaching out to take one of the sugary little pastries and eyeing it crossly like it was poison. As she raised it to her tentatively open lips, she almost gagged at the sickly-sweet smell and crumbly texture and she had hardly put even a fourth of it in her mouth. She quickly dropped it to the ground, watching it fall with abhorrence before treading over it. "How do you eat those things?" She remarked with scorn.

If Marnenyen had taken a moment to pause, she would notice that Cress didn't have any sweet rolls on him, in fact he pulled his hat off then showed her the inside, it was in fact empty and with a chuckle he reached inside and pulled out a sweet roll, how he managed to do so was a grand mystery in itself.

He watched with a smile and curious eyes as Marnenyen peered the sweet roll over and giggled cutely as he placed his hat back on and watched the pastry fall in the ground, though he was surprised she had even accepted the item in the first place.
"Thheheheh~"
He blushed a little and made a cute little squeal as he peered up at  Marnenyen.
"Oh Cress likes sweets and can cook as well! Cress likes sweets because is something Cress lacks in life"
He spoke happily, however his words had hidden meaning, when he said sweets were what he lacked in life, it was a sign he had always been mistreated….

She leaned forward, arms still crossed, and her pointed ears twitched a little at the ebullient way he stated such a tragedy. She mused at him for a while, gnawing at the inside of her cheek in thought. Suddenly, she spoke out loud, "Why do you stay here, then?"

  Marnenyen faltered, letting the words leave her tongue before clarifying, "I mean, if you're treated so badly, why not just leave? You don't have to owe this place much loyalty," she scoffed, "...it's a pile of heeping dung." She put her arms out around her in a broad shrug, fingers outspread.

Cress exhaled a little then rubbed the back of his neck, this place has what he needs to stay "sane", and without it he may go on his rampages, that and the owner knows of some of his darkest secrets…either he stays and does the other's bidding or he will be executed. Yet the real question is how will he explain? What will he tell Marnenyen? 'We NoT nEed To ExplAin!!! ignOrrre HerRrrrrrrRrrRrrrrr', the voice spoke in his mind yet Cress doesn't want to be rude.

"Well it's a long story…"
Cress gazed up upon Marnenyen with somber eyes, his cries eyes seemed to sparkle a little.

She had to admit, she was intrigued by the way he wavered at the topic, the way he looked at her when he spoke. She tilted her head, intertwining her forearms again and rubbing at her lithe biceps idly.

  "We've got until the next act," she postulated with a hopeful twinkle. "I'm sure we have enough time."
