I typed the entire fic on my typewriter, then obscured most of it by typing xxx over it.

Transcription:

"a hand along her back;
warm mouth against her;
breathless

mouth over her breast

murmurs
exhales
arches
breathes
smiles

shakes and shakes
ascends faster,
impatient"

And as for short stories!

Homecoming is Just Another Word for the Sublimation of the Self by Isabel J. Kim: a world where people can split into "instances" of themselves, an original and a copy. The main character moved from Korea to the US as a kid and travels back to Korea for her grandfather's funeral, where she meets her instance for the first time.

The House of Asterion by Jorge Luis Borges: a very short take on the minotaur of Greek myth.

The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman: perhaps you read this one in school, but if it's been a long time, may I recommend reading it again? I just read it again for Trick or Treat and loved the horror of Victorian era misogyny and the slow creep of the horrible wallpaper.

Enjoy!!
