Wow, that was disturbing and compelling. Another one I wouldn't have seen without your rec. Thanks!

I'm embarrassed to admit how much I enjoyed this. There is a link to a podfic. Listen. It's even more compelling/creepy/whatever it is when you listen to it being read.

It's the aftermath of the rape I found the most amazing.

Oh man, I can't believe this fic hasn't been recced here before; I assumed it was recced ages ago and never went to look. This is the fic that got me into fandom -- any fandom -- and I do *not* generally read non-con, either before this or after. It's just that mind-blowing.

I too can't believe this was never recced before. It's a classic -- the most spectacularly affecting kink fic in the fandom, for my money.
