[ID: photograph of some words in all caps from the book Harrow the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir,
"I will remember the first time you kissed me -- you apologized-- you said, I am sorry, destroy me as I am, but I want to kiss you before I am killed, and I said to you why, and you said, because I have only once met someone so utterly willing to burn for what they believe in, and I loved him on sight, and the first time i died i asked of him what I now ask of you
I kissed you and later I would kiss him too before I understood what you were, and all three of us lived to regret it -- but when I am in heaven, I will remember your mouth, and when you roast down in hell I think you will remember mine"]
