Machines

Shutting her out is almost more than he can bear: but there is a sickening throb, a beat like her heart running backwards and forwards together and he cannot let himself hear it. He cannot even tell her trust me, ask her to wait.

Don’t, he tells them. Don’t touch it.



No, touch me, she screams out silently to him, hardly embarrassed at how easy it has become to beg. Touch me please. It tears at her, blurs her edges: the pain and power and both are too terribly welcome.

I am afraid, she screams. I am becoming like him.

Been lurking all over your wonderful fic for a while, and thought I'd finally stop and say hi! (Also friending in the hopes of catching any new stuff that happens along ...)

Ta very much! I have to admit I haven't been writing in ages, but thanks for reading the old stuff!

(And I adore your icon - mind if I steal it? With credit, of course ... )
