( you've mostly likely never seen this much apathy at the sight of two children getting run over before from a catholic priest.

or anyone in general, priest or no. any observer might have concluded that the man was either accustomed to daily catastrophes, or just didn't care... or some combination of the two. there's the impact — almost imperceptibly, the priest's eyes tighten, before making strides towards the collision with an expression that shows more than a hint of curiosity.

is he waiting for someone better equipped to lend a hand? offering a silent prayer? it's up to your discretion. )
