Aww...so sad, and so intriguing. Is the reason Ahamo was banished the reason I'm thinking about? *head scratch*

Thank you!

Is the reason Ahamo was banished the reason I'm thinking about?

*points to the warning at the top of the page, which might be considered a hint.*

Actually, there was a curious paratextual effect in the original posting; not only is a slash audience in general going to be predisposed to assume the story is intended to hint at Ambrose/Ahamo (which it is), but posting to these specific communities could be read as implying a relationship between Cain and Glitch as well, on which the last line would then cast a possible shadow (does Glitch like Cain for himself, or is he simply reverting to type without realizing it?). I suppose it's a way to cheat on the 100-word limit, by exploiting means of communication other than the words themselves.

I didn't notice the Ahamo banishment thing until I read Moony's comment!

But... but... oh my gosh!
