OOM: But will it ever be enough?

[sunbaked_baker]

(OOM: Quite often, when a long night out with Con had gone from bad to worse, when Rae's humanity felt scraped raw from the things she had seen and done, she found herself fervently wishing that somehow there could be some sort of human comfort at the end of it all. Kind words, a soft blanket, a hot cup of tea, human kindness and reassurances to bring her back to her daylight self and remind her that who she is in the dark isn't all of who she is.

Now she was finding that she could hardly stand it when she did have that comfort pressed upon her.)

{ooc: poor Rae, hope she gets back to Milliways where there are people who can help her heal faster.}

(OOC: Oh, Sunshine. Poor thing. I'm glad the ordeal is over--well, the main one, anyway, the new ordeal is just beginning. But at least the hard part is over, and the healing can begin.)

[OOC: As in all your works recently, the tension in this is beautifully done.]
