    Summary

    “How far did he get?”

    “Almost touched the fence,” Carl says.

    “He was motivated,” Eva murmurs distantly. She is suddenly very tired.

    “Past tense already?”

    Eva flinches, feeling slapped in the face. No more coffees brought to her right as she starts to lag in the afternoon, no more bags of obnoxiously-colored candies hidden away in her pocket to slip to him, lest the vultures in the engineering department claim them all. No more staring at reports while he spins his chair around and talks about nothing, his voice soothing white noise to her after three years of hearing it practically nonstop. No more beers shared after a long day’s work, a brief respite before beginning another grueling day the next morning. It is all past tense now.

    (eva stratt has just kidnapped her second-in-command. eva stratt has just lost her closest friend.)

    Summary

    l'appel du vide
    lit. "Call of the void"; used to refer to intellectual suicidal thoughts, or the urge to engage in self-destructive (suicidal) behaviors during everyday life. Examples include thinking about swerving in to the opposite lane while driving, or feeling the urge to jump off a cliff edge while standing on it. These thoughts are not accompanied by emotional distress.


    "And you wanna save me again."

    "And I want..." a stutter, unused to the honestly of his own want, "You to live."

    If he's really honest with himself, so does Daniel. Survival is ingrained at a cellular level. Suicides changing their mind halfway down the building. But it's not too late for him yet.

    "Okay," he sighs out. Ceding the conversation, but still determined to have the last word. "Fine, sure, let's go. Let's make me a vampire."
