Fic: Cold Comfort
Title: Cold Comfort
Fandom: The Locked Tomb
Major Characters/Pairings: Ianthe/Harrow, Ianthe/Coronabeth
Wordcount: 100
Rating: Teen
POV: Third person
Summary: Ianthe wants what she cannot have. She’s not alone in that.
Notes: Originally written as giftfic for Marenke on AO3
Content notes: Implied incest
Harrow isn’t inviting like Corona was. It makes her less dangerous, not more: a bone shard, not a carnivorous flower.
(Corona kept one as a pet, loved it dearly, fed it Ianthe’s scraps. Ianthe wonders when maudlin if she’d ever claw her way back for it, somehow. If she might ever return, a revenant for her sister.)
“You need me,” she says, because she needs it to be true. Sweet Harry says nothing. She’s cold, forbidding. If she could survive on pure thanergy, she would – but nobody can, and she doesn’t flinch from Ianthe’s skeletal fingers tracing her rigid mouth.
