Title: Cold Comfort
Author: Deslea R Judd
Character/Pairing: Sarah/Derek
Rating: A strong PG for adult concepts, but nothing explicit.
Warnings: Trigger warning: Discussion of rape. Spoilers to To The Lighthouse, alt-universe after that.
Summary: It took resuscitation paddles, impromptu surgery, and a head full of drugs, but Sarah finally came clean with a few hard truths. Derek didn't bargain on facing a few of his own.
Disclaimer: Characters not mine. Interpretation mine.
Author Notes: 1. More fic:
http://fiction.deslea.com. 2. Thanks to
roxybisquaint, whose
view of Sarah's transformation is woven through this fic. I don't know if it's her kind of story, necessarily, because her Sarah is uber-strong and this Sarah is still on the way, but I think they're the same person underneath it all. 3. This fic is a little bit experimental in some ways. I don't want to create pre-conceived ideas so I'll say more at the end.
