  Oh look one of those times i drew Black Heart here without his mask on but its gonna be a recurring "gag" until i do some sort of official face reveal. Anyways i went with the defination of chicken to also mean being a coward. As a child BH is quite timid and since being kidnapped into a crime syndicate at a young age did not help with his self esteem/anxiety. In fact he was picked on a lot and he was so easily scared the other members of the Brotherhood would sometimes refer to him as "Chicken Heart" as a joke. Well he eventually learnt to cope with the bullying and such but his self esteem still kinda crumbly. So BH here is probably 8-10 before the mask was semi-permanently grafted to his face. I wonder why he is cowering in fear? Day 6 will explain it.
