    Summary

    “I’m not paranoid! I’m... we’re from below. You know everyone is out to get us. Topsiders and the others from the undercity. They always have been. Every one of them!” Jinx shouts. She's trying to focus, but the whispers are getting louder and the shadows are creeping back in.

    “I had to be stronger to survive. I had to be strong enough to do it on my own. You weren’t there and I... had to be better. Better for Silco. Good enough to help him. He was the only one there and he didn’t have anyone else. He needed me and I had to be good enough not to get in the way,” Jinx tries to scream, but her throat croaks out the words instead. Vi’s eyes soften.

    “So let me be there for you now that he’s gone. Let me help you chase the monsters away just one more time,” Vi offers, holding her hand out. Jinx looks away. Chains are rattling around the room and she wants to scream at them to stop. She wants Vi to fight back.

    She needs so badly for her to fight back.

    -
    Jinx always thought she was in control, but lately it has been harder to figure out what's real. When everything breaks, she discovers the truth is far different then she expected, and the family she longs for isn't lost forever after all.

    Summary

    Janaya Week - Day 4: Family

    They’ve been together for so long, but nothing has really settled.
    They’re together, and they’re happy, but Janai wakes up one day, brings breakfast in bed to Amaya, and realizes she wants more.
    Not more as in something different.
    More as in exactly the same for the rest of her life.

    Summary

    Janaya Week - Day 3: Intimacy

    It shouldn’t come as a surprise when, in lieu of the first weekend off they both have in ages, Kazi asks her that question.
    “Are you going to be intimate?”
    Janai opens her mouth to answer, to tell Kazi that, although the word works well in their native language, it sounds way too formal for Common.
    And she stops.
    What does intimacy mean, anyway?
