   Summary

   Bakura wanted to take him apart, to make Ryou his own, to dominate and ruin and cannibalize his consciousness until they were one. One as in Ryou’s destruction or one as in symbiosis, he didn’t know.

   Bookmarker's Notes

   Brilliant character study, especially for Ryou. The horror here is subtle and extremely well-written. Perfect snapshot of the tendershipping dynamic. I must've read it three times.
