Subject: This place is about as dark as they come

The shocked palomino's enigmas are eroded into near-oblivion by this goddess's change. She has knocked him so far off balance by those three words that it cannot yet be said whether he shall recover.... and if that is a good thing. Formerly, no kind of assault could have broken through the passive-aggressive languor of this golden stallion's infamy, and now the only thing that has succeeded is this ghost from the past, one who has haunted both his nights and waking moments since, it seems to him, time immemorial. Thus it is that eyes of acid jade can no longer corrode with such little effort the defenses of any they meet, as they are locked helplessly into place by a pair he has seen in his dreams. Ears flicking forward, this breathless moment seems to last a lifetime, hanging on a thread of possibilities that will at any second....
SNAP.


And now it's over. A moment on a knife-edge has been sliced, and with it that terrifying instant of horrific exposure, weakness, vulnerability that a killer's soul simply cannot allow. The fierce defenses are returned to eyes, voice and demeanor, and the strange feeling that had been exposed in that evanescent moment he locks away again. Oh, what fools these mortals be; nothing's ever that easy.

"Really." The undertones forced away now, the word comes out rough, brutal and careless. "I'm glad." I missed you too. His thought rings dischordant with what is actually vocalised, because it cannot be said. Because it is the truth, plain and simple, and a murderer-cum-politician could never speak such truths. The changes she has wrought in him are already far-reaching, but it is beyond clear that she too has been transformed. Once, she was like him; a pair of truly deadly souls, rich in their unstoppable ambition and merciless brutality. But now that one has changed her stride, the other cannot quite yet bring himself up to speed. And thus they move out of synch, dancing to subtly different beats.
