As it turned out it wouldn't have done him any good anyway--a few steps down on the worn stone and suddenly the ground gave way beneath him. Where Taym had been there was now nothing.
After a moment he realized he wasn't dead, but that he was still falling. Very Alice in Wonderland, except he would presumably go splat instead of landing gently among shelves of marmalade in a rabbit's burrow. He overcame the initial panic to realize he had what was effectively a Get Out of Jail Free Card.
He gave the techs a withering stare and this time, from them, accepted help. Out of necessity, of course.

Oh.
"On vay," Kostya said, staring at the glass that had embedded itself into his skin, slicing clean through his coat. Slowly, he pulled it out, marvelling at the lack of blood.
Fear shields.
Syntax chirped in response.

He approached America with a steadfast nod, the front of his shirt sliced into not-quite ribbons, revealing pale flesh beneath.
For right now, he lacked the energy to be self conscious.

The trudge back through the snow was honestly the worst part of this. This time he was alone with no one to keep him company and to b***h at.
He swiftly regretted this thought when he made his way into the bunker and realized that no. He wasn't alone after all.

Caught off his guard, he fumbled and attempted to get his back off the wall, barely knicking the thing with his abruptly-summoned blade. The uneasy thought occurred to him as he stared at its strange surface that perhaps a knife would do good to it at all.

Don't be ridiculous, said Fiona calmly, as his next lunge went true. He isn't made of glass or iron or anything else. He's made of FEAR.

Bolstered by this reminder, he launched himself in with a vengeance, and between every swing of his arm he cursed Kostya, because this was his idea and because Kostya was easier to curse than America.

It was now emitting a skin-crawling grinding noise every time it clumsily attempted to claw at him. <******** you," he informed it, adding it to his growing list of cursing targets.

It collapsed, and Taym waited, panting and out of breath, and without thinking he pressed his hand to his side where the wound no longer was, where the stitch from panting ought to be and wasn't.

He found himself in the hall of mirrors, and whereas before he'd sailed through frankly baffled by America and Kostya's hesitation, he now found himself sucked in against his will.
He'd spent the past couple of years hating the idea of looking at his own reflection, avoiding it through any means possible, averting his eyes, even, when passing plate glass windows in the street.
A normal reflection was bad enough. These were worse.
He tried not to listen to the growing whispering chorus of derision.

He nearly fell into a sudden opening beneath his feet, riveted as he was on the horrific image of himself, the abrupt realization of how far gone he'd really let himself get.
A pause, and he descended.

There was no relief at the bottom. He nearly wept to realize that there were just more mirrors, more perpetual reflections, more silent whisperings.
The mirrors showed him the blood on his side that should not have been there. He pressed his hand to the imaginary wound and soldiered onwards, his eyes sliding from one horrible image to the next, while the voices in his head told him everything he already spent so much time telling himself.

You could leave, suggested the voices pleasantly. You could magic yourself right back out and call it quits.
He told himself they meant the pendant, meant the hallway.
