Prompt - I'll fix you.


unfixable by perfection

He is so beautiful and perfect. He's distant - a far, far away fairy tale prince.

She slips into the room occasionally, getting a glimpse of him on television, poring over a magazine with him on the cover. He's so attractive it can't be real.

She could have had him, but now she hates herself for the thought. Besides, she's an Avox now - a smudge on the supposedly stainless city of flawless citizens. What a load of garbage. She feels clouds of resentment and jealousy well up in her whenever she sees him anywhere - anywhere at all.

You are nothing, everyone says. As if he'd ever care for you.

She clings onto her dreams, because he's just too perfect and sometimes, he might even fix her, her as the broken, lifeless Avox. She'll be able to talk again and have her brother back and get the life she wants.

That won't happen.

Sometimes, it feels like she's been broken too hard, and when her screams wake the night as those in the too-clean lab coats throw questions at her, she knows nothing can fix her.
