My mother raised me just right.

[ She hooks her bloody teeth over her bottom lip when she smiles, little rabbit teeth. A rabbit, a hare, what's the difference really? They both kick when they're grabbed. They both bite hard and squeal strange jackrabbit sounds, eerie and alarming. They're both prey.

She's mocked him plenty. She mocks him right now, her hand, bloody from her stomach, gestures toward... all of her. She doesn't have anything to lose. She tried bargaining, and though she'll come back again, and again and again, for a moment her hindbrain is aflutter with the approaching death. No matter how much it happens, it always brings: fear. Regardless of what logic says, the brain never wants to die. ]


And I know. Aren't you going to finish it? That's the part you jerk it to afterwards, right?
