Variation No.1 on Obedience Suite (in A minor)

Summary:

“I heard a rumour, that Vanya will always be obedient.”

But not anymore. No more doing as commanded, no more acting as expected.

It’s enough to make one begin to realise who they are.

Notes:

Look, I have to believe that the curse of obedience gets broken. I have too.

….and without it? Well, Viktor has got the headspace to come to some realisations.

edit post masked author: I am revealed! It is I, remixing my own fic 🙈 Look, this is sort of a head canon for me that reconciles Obedience with the canon Viktor storyline. It isn’t something I plan to write into the main story (….when I get round to finishing that) so this was a fun way of letting that idea out into the world and sharing it with others. Hope you enjoy!

Work Text:

It was a day like any other when Vanya stopped outside the barbers on the way back from an orchestra rehearsal. Just another day like the many days since she had broken her curse and regained control over her powers, her choices, and ultimately, her life.

Except…

On this day she found herself stopping outside as if compelled, and her feet felt glued to the sidewalk as sure as any cursed command. She peered in through the window.

“Be a good girl now, Vanya,” Mom’s voice echoed.

Be a good girl now, Vanya.

With a deep breath, he stepped inside.
