(Dayum! That was a lot to read. Sorry about being MIA for the night)
Bill wandered around the orphanage, making sure to hide around corners when he happened to hear a voice approaching. He wondered how long he could keep it up... Eventually he would slip, and someone would find him. If it was Skorn he'd be in a world of hurt. Figuring the last place anyone would look was the most obvious, he went back to his now empty room.

"Open your blessed wings
And wrap them around all your things
Keep yourself in the company of kings
Cause it's their hands that bleed from the strings"
My first thought was, he lied in every word
That hoary cripple, with malicious eye
Askance to watch the working of his lie
On mine, and mouth scarce able to afford
Suppression of the glee that pursed and scored
Its edge at one more victim gained thereby.
