    Complete at 89k.

    I wrote this for November's NaNoWriMo 2022. I'd hoped to finish it wholly within November, but it got a bit too long and took 2 months to write and edit. Major thanks to Piper, Chartic, and Rililith for helping with beta reading

    Summary

    My father stands at the doorway, his hands are laced together and they contract with each breath, pulsing like a heart. "Taylor," he says, forgetting my name, "There's someone here to see you."

    Summary

    You’re on your knees in front of him and he’s grinding a booted foot between your legs and this is sex. This is the kind of shit you’re into. You’re exploring, even, by not being the dom (to be fair you’re not sure how that would work with Clef’s whole thing).

    He says things of varying cruelty to you and you are hard and getting off and this is the kind of sex you two would have, if those social media posts Bright shares about how lots of asexuals are actually super okay with kink stuff and of course your general deal hold any water. You are having an awesome fucking time.

    [kondraki is having sex with clef, which is an astonishing kindness on clef's part, so why is all of it so unfullfilling?]

    Summary

    [ Danny looks over the surrounding buildings; in this part of town, at this time of night, most of them are either only half-there, or halfway more there than usual. A cat’s potential lays on a roof down the way, the suggestion of its tail swaying, its body the barest whisper of an animal, seen only by the witch-light backing its silhouette - a faint, ephemeral halo. ]

    ***

    …The human body does not, after all, account for its processes being done consciously - the brain is fully capable of controlling these things with little input from conscious, deliberate thoughts. This is simultaneously where the case of the haunted house differs from the body, and where it remains the same: it may have the unique ability to observe its insides, and may even have enough self-control to alter them, but it does not - cannot - control those living within. The human residents of a haunting are as vital to it as the walls, and as unknowable to a house as a human’s brain chemistry is to the waking mind…
