My prompt, obviously, and it's wonderful and creepy and gaaah. Agreed with Mith about the distance and how effective it is here, how the very ideas of normalcy and routine and courtesies like getting dressed to receive an important visitor are utterly perverted by the characters and the setting. And his distance from Rosa, too. That hurts, how only the pain Golbez gives him seems to get through now. Is a fabulous take on him, and on her, and on their relationship. *rolls around in the wrong*
