And she can see a future where she’ll never get back home, because home died with Ed and Harry and Maggie-that-was. Where she’ll ride in the black car and have Sam ride her in cheap motel rooms; where he teaches her how to take all those shadows down, because she’s just like him now; where she turns like bitter earth and all she feels is darkness and shit and blood under her skin; where all that binds her to this life is memory and the need for redemption.
Just a perfect paragraph that takes us from the Maggie we met to the Maggie that could be...how an ADULT gets lost and wound up in the hunter's world. Nicely done.
And YAY for the prompt fitting in like that. Worked very wonderfully, indeed.
