#a possession

[hope-to-hell]

For story association for me it’s gotta be A Posession. You knocked me fucking six ways sideways with that one.

1. The Reaper is directly based off a friend (you know who you are).

2. The last thing in the box was hope. I’d originally envisioned the last little bit of the epilogue as August himself, but in the end decided ambiguity is better. It’s up to you whether it’s him, or whether it’s Henry healing at last.

A Possession

You once touched me

With sweet smiles

And sweeter words,

Held me close

When we shared a bed,

But now we’re banished

To different sides

And I’m afraid

You’ll put me

Back on the shelf

With your gilded books,

“Nice things,” you said,

“I like having nice things.”
