Work Text:
Cases live for you:
They breathe beneath your hands,
Whispering their secrets to you,
Baring you their souls.
You care for cases more than men.
Of puzzles to solve.
You risk life and limb for their sake.
But not I.
I care for people.
I care for you.
And if the death of one case,
The death of one girl,
A girl whom I met but an hour ago,
Her and others,
Any others,
Or many others,
Is the price to be paid for you,
So be it.
Cases live for you:
You live for me.
