Ink: Stitches

Evie and Una sew.

Evie stitches thread into fabric

holding together dresses and jackets and pieces of pants that are falling apart.

Una stitches ink into skin

holding together enemies and allies and grips on reality that are falling apart.

Evie stitches fabric and flesh

holding in blood and bone and wrapping it in new clothes to keep warm.

Una stitches skin and sorrow

holding out pain and death and showing the world the marks it leaves.
