She’s watching you, with eyes big and gentle and full of so much care that would be far better spent elsewhere for all that she feels she ought to share it with the whole entire world, and yet…

And yet…

You hate how every fiber of your being wants her to keep them on you.

Because you’re selfish. And terrible. And vile. Disgusting and rotten down to the core of whatever makes up the chemistry of you.

The Housemaiden shouldn’t be holding your hand. Shouldn’t get anywhere near the blood that stains just below the surface.

But you can’t will yourself to pull away.

“Loop?” the Housemaiden asks, quiet, gentle, everything you do not deserve. “You don’t have to talk about it, but...but do you want a hug?”
