Work Text:

There was no time for same.

Even if there was, how could it be? Velvette managed everything and Valentino presented it. Her nerves drew thin while Val took out his stress on Angel Dust. It wasn’t that they couldn’t do this by themselves.

It was that they shouldn’t have. Vox was supposed to be there. Between them. Putting everything together and presenting it for an audience of all.

Velvette would have liked to be a goddess. Not like Vox wanted to be god. Just… on top. With him.

Nothing was with him. Vox wasn’t the same. And neither was she.

Long Live Comment Project

This story is part of the LLF Comment Project, which was created to improve communication between readers and authors. I appreciate all feedback, including:

  • Short comments
  • Long comments
  • Questions
  • Critiques (NOT criticism)
  • “<3” as extra kudos
  • Reader-reader interaction
  • On all works, old and new
  • Any SPAG issues (spelling, punctuation, and grammar), as I would prefer it corrected before more people see them

I love replying to comments! If you would rather not have a reply (for any reason, you don't need to explain why), feel free to end your comment with /whisper and know I appreciate your comment while not bothering you!

Come talk to me on Bluesky or Tumblr!
Most fics will be posted to my Dreamwidth first, so check it out~
