developed a real fondness lately for characters who experience a horrific act of violence and come out the other side saying "ah. I don't think I get to be me anymore. they took out the part that was me, killed it, and put something else back in its place, and now I'm whoever the hell that is." love it when someone becomes a corpse and replaces themself <3

“IF NOT FRIEND, THEN WHY FRIEND SHAPED!?” the human cries out after you denied to let them pet your homeworld’s most dangerous predator.

“He had a scar on his hip from a dog bite in his childhood. Our first night together I kissed it and he breathed the most profound sigh and asked how did I know exactly where he wanted to be touched, that no one had ever touched him there. Our romance was like that, healing every old wound with magic disappearing powers until they were all tended. We lived out of time, nursed all injuries, shared all the stories and then were fortified and ready to go on with our life together.”

— Elizabeth Alexander, The Light of the World: A Memoir

A story where someone is brought back from the dead, and at first it seems like it's all Came Back Wrong: This is no longer the person that the people around her knew - she has the same memories as she did in life, knows the same people and has the same skills and habits, but she says things that she never would have in her life. Harsh, cruel, and frightening things. There is no more peace in the house because of the things she tells people, picking at wounds in the household with surgical presicion.

When asked why she must be like this, and why she cannot just be the kind and gentle person she was before - the one they loved and wanted back so badly that they broke the laws of nature to return her to life - she tells them that they should not have done that. This household will never know peace again until either she dies again or someone else in the family does.

She is still the same person, with the same thoughts and feelings. Only one thing has changed: The dead cannot lie.

How dare you show me kindness, old friend? Here, when my hands are still wet with your blood. Now, when there is still air in your dying lungs.

How can you stand it? I knew this day was coming. I didn't understand back then, when I made my plans. I wrote the end of your story before it even began. What was I supposed to tell you? That one day you would die, and it would be my fault? I doubt you would have believed me. Even now, as I plunge my knife into your chest, I don't think you blame me.

This wasn't supposed to hurt. Yet, I'm not sure which one of us this hurts more. It was meant to be just another step in the plan, another meaningless casualty. And yet, you show me gentleness I don't deserve. You see the fear in my eyes, and you show me what to do. You guide my blade into your own heart so that I don't have to do this alone. Your voice is broken, like this strange thing we've built between us. "Let me make this easier for you, my love."

I will never forgive you for loving me.

I will never forgive myself for loving you.
