title: in the dark i hear your voice author: alanabloom/ cormierdelphines fandom: orange is the new black pairing: alex/piper warnings: major character death summary: "I know you aren't real. I...I'm not crazy." "Methinks the lady doth protest too fuckin' much," Alex replies with a smirk. "But I hope you're right, Pipes. I love you, but I'm not moving this show to Psych."

(You must be in the anger stage of mourning, the one that's all talons and claws.  Or maybe it's bargaining: convincing yourself you'll feel better if you can only have something of hers to hold onto.  This is what they don't tell you about the so-called stages: they aren't a checklist, a step by step guide.  They bump into each other, overlap, until denial and anger and bargaining and depression are all tangled together in one huge fucked up knot.)

This is something you prepare for. I took a look at the first three paragraphs the first time I saw this posted and told myself, Not yet. Still, when I told myself I was ready enough, it still felt like the proverbial kick in the chest. It's like all the air leaves the room.

I like it when that happens whenever I read something. 

tl;dr Read if you haven't. Re-read if you have.
