Fics like To Find Abstinence at the Dinner Table

From the first day Harrow could form words with her small lips, Harrow was quick to learn how to beg for atonement. Beg to be forgiven for the circumstances of her birth, beg to be forgiven for breathing air with lungs that hadn't been grown under the eye of God. Her father had taught her Hail Mary's on the very hands he told her were coated in the sins of her fathers and how to pray with the very lips he swore took air undeservingly. As if Harrow hadn't been baptized like every child of God, because she would always be marked— by the sins of her parents. There were very few ways of penance a child of God could find the beginnings of atonement from the hand of God. They could pray; on their knees and confess to a pastor with conviction. They could do good works, focus on the Bible and drill its teachings into their brains— or, they could fast. or; The five times Harrow suffered because of food, and the one time it didn't matter.
