Fics like Bad Blood

She’s letting herself think about it, carefully, like the memories are a stray dog that might bite her outstretched hand at any moment. She’s thinking about the pattern of the freckles across her nose and the shape of her dumb, easy grin, and the way her hair would flash red in the sunlight from the window, when it was unkempt and wild from being tangled in Dina’s hands and-- It’s too fucking much. It’s too far. It’s too good, and those stray dog memories do what stray dogs do best--it clamps down on her, sinks teeth down deep, sends her into breathless agony. So she's folding in on herself, as small as she can get, as if that might help-- it won't-- and she's giving in to the grief again.
