RE: 16 days of literature: Awkward Tension
UwU ~ Thanks for reading and thanks for the compliments! Indeed, I wanted to poise a scenario that indeed Master Grower (Kal) was a killer (which I hint at some impulse-reaction behaviour with Kal looking at the knife). But I had to tie it in with Musashi’s concerns, and with the fact we have SciFi topic of two people that (used to) care for each other in a SciFi. So making the Colonel a women fit rather neatly here (and the fact that no gender was specified in relation to the Colonel, so took it for a wild trip) which allowed me to tie in relationship strife with Kal’s muderous feelings. Of which, I finally tied it back with that loose Heitor thread and showcased the final obscenity that made the Colonel snap but never enough to fully let her suffer a fate worse than being shot at. Withal, the realm of Love still managed to get Musashi to collapse, but finally redeemed in the eyes of a ghost husband in their polyamorphic relationship. And so, she finally could put Kal to sleep and say goodnight.
