    Summary

    She thought he’d gone mad, and of course he had. Of course. But even starving, even coated in other people’s blood, even hallucinating and alone, he’d had a tether dragging him into the future.

    And now here was his anchor, sitting right in front of him, and it turned out that his tether (his reason for living) hadn’t existed at all. That tether had been nothing more than another cut rope, flapping loose in the breeze.

    What would Odysseus have done if he arrived home to find Penelope only politely interested in his return? Not anyone else’s, not yet, but no longer his, either?

    OR: Liv prompted me to write a story about "one braincell Five who truly doesn't think Vanya wants him. Pining. Yearning. Assumes everything is a pity date, and gets resolved with smut."
