    Summary

    “I would like you to know me,” Caleb says.

    It feels like a secret. Like the darkest part of him cracked open; all his months and years of hiding, of wrapping his arms and scratching the bindings, of not loving, not loving anything but an unkillable cat — it’s unraveling around him. He feels naked. He feels the way he did the first time Pumat Sol spelled him clean.

    “I find that — I would like you to know me,” he says, again.

    Summary

    The empire slaves have been given to Essek, because obviously he doesn't have enough to do. He doesn't particularly want them, doesn't need the extra hands in his household, but he doesn't have a polite way to refuse them that won't land them somewhere worse. He shall simply have to make the most of it.
