"You deserve this Sollux!" The twin sing songs over the sound of Feferi screaming at her. "Isn't this what you want? A way to relieve your guilt, you have so much of it! Now you can finally suffer for it the way you always deserved."

She leans in again, clamping Sollux's mouth shut as she whispers to him. "Do you think this is even close to what Aradia suffered? You know the week after my departure she heard Aradia's thoughts. It was just muffled sobbing, screaming, over and over."

The twin pulls back, grasping Sollux's jaw to keep him still once more. "Maybe I'll keep you alive, maybe you'll just have to live with this. You'll never be able to feel her touch again without thinking of me. Wouldn't that be exciting?"

And she starts on the other eye. Feferi stops screaming, stops begging, just sobs quietly and grits her teeth.
