Why this must be read:

I love how even after years and years of reading fic, I keep finding new and fresh interpretations of the same material. This is an extraordinary example of that concept; this fic has been giving me the heebie jeebies for months now! Naturally, I mean that in the best possible way. Scarlet Baldy has a talent for emotional writing that hits right in the gut, and in this fic, that talent has been used for a truly chilling and disturbing purpose. This story lingers in my mind like few others.
