Challenge/Prompt: #21 - boundaries
Things used to be easier. Before. But, then, everything was different, before.
Elle's life was ordered, divided. Home, work, wrong, right, good, bad. No shades of grey, no slippery areas where nothing, not one thing, is ever what it seems to be. You can't trust your eyes, can't trust what you see, what's right in front of you. Mirrors and shadows and the monster in the dark just might be you.
Elle's crossing lines, now, she's taking risks, making her own code, her own rules. Her old life has drained away like blood, like her blood, edges blurred and uncertain and fading fast.
Elle has her gun ready, always, now, and she doesn't hesitate.
