This is a companion-fic to "Each Our Own Devil". I was actually planning a direct sequel to that story, but the more I thought it through, the more I realised I wasn't going to make it through a proper multi-chapter continuation. I'm already struggling with two other WIPs; to take on another and to lose focus is a disservice both to the ideas in my head, and the people who read it. But I wanted to write more of this: so I decided to make it a 'verse, where I keep adding new stories. 'Sides, the colouring-in-the-blank-spaces method might actually help me tell a richer, more complex story, who knows.

This particular story is set a few years after the events of EOOD (and yes, it'd be better to read that first). It's an excuse to dip into Sam's (really, really screwed-up) mindspace. I know I've used the 'it's weird' excuse a lot before, but this time I'm actually trying to be weird, so. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
