This one was requested by mellot. Requests are still open.
Also, I was going for the whole extrapolation idea of 'Evey/Dominic together!' for #1 of the last chapt but obviously, I was the only one who got it. Woe.

Anyway, thanks for all feedback. :)

5 things V would like to do to Evey in bed

-

5. Interesting things involving blindfolds and silk cloths and velvet petals and certain gloves and— well, you get the picture.

4. To confess the love letters of the ages in the secret curves of her body: whisper Donne into her neck, murmur Browning in the aftermath, and against her salt of her skin, mouth Bronte, Coleridge, Keats, Byron, the Bard, cummings—in your most frail gesture are things which enclose me/ or which i cannot touch because they are too near…

Wordplay is the foreplay of the gods, after all.

3. Keep her in bed for a much longer time with the help of good champagne, because that always makes her ruthlessly and coquettishly wicked.

...Actually, make that a much, much longer time.

2. Kiss her: on her collarbone, along the delicate curve of her right shoulder, that weak underside of her wrists, in the slight hollow under her rib when she arches up, the soft spot above her hipbone beneath his thumb, right there. He will have to settle for brushing that fragile hollow under her left ankle or Evey will start to suspect, and V is not-- will not-- apologizing. Not for her faded bruises of an interrogation ago; he is fine.

1. It involves a paintbrush. And no canvas.
