This is so amazing. I read it again after I saw the note at the end, and the depth to this is incredible. I love how War comes to help Bobby, how she's playing both sides. After all, if evil won, she'd be out of a job... ;)
The scene is suddenly, startlingly familiar.
...Oooh. I like the suggestion that Bobby maybe is Arjuna, reincarnated before the new battle. I could be totally off-base here, but I like the idea of it.
As her tongue finds his, he closes his eyes, and thinks of the smooth lines of a gun and the perfect hilt of a sword.
Mmm. That is a lovely bit of imagery there, sex and violence all mixed together.
I love that Bobby recognized the sound of the engine. It's so perfect that I think I am adopting it into my personal fanon for him. Annnd now I realize how well thought-out her arrival was, how she was easing Bobby into the discussion. So she showed up in the Mustang that would remind Bobby of the freedom and invincibility of youth--and of course it reminds him of how that time ended, because it was the last car he drove before he shipped off to Vietnam. Which is where War comes in, just as she's doing now...
And my babbling has now been reduced to incoherency, so I'll just say--thank you so much, secret author!!
