Fics like dramatic irony

"It named me victim," they whisper. "Lowercase v." And Chosen knows names, she can figure it out. The vitriol, the fury, the pain. The way every visible inch of their skin is scarred, layers upon layers upon layers of slices and burns and bruises that went bone-deep. She doesn't need them to say anything more. They do anyway. "A year," they say. Five years. "A year of torture and murder, over and over and over and over again." Five years of burned palms, nothing but letters to eat, a weight that kept her from walking, let alone flying. "And every time I tried to escape, to destroy it instead—well, I was just a victim, wasn't I? Completely powerless and helpless and pathetic victim." The thing about The Chosen One is something Chosen doesn't discover until Avast's chest closes over her for the first time. The thing about The Chosen One is The Chosen One loses. In the Box, somewhere between The Chosen One's fall and victim's ascension, they have something that could almost be called a conversation.
