Why This Must Be Read:
I only recently discovered this story myself, and I am oh so glad I did. Not only is the story constructed well, it sort of vibrates with the emotions of a torn up Lorne. It touches on just how messy this particular pairing could be and yet one still buys into it wholly.
It could take an eternity for his knuckles to hit the door. The strangeness he feels, the dissociation, only intensifies.
It would go half the distance, then half that distance, and half again, and again, and again, and he'd never quite touch the door. It would recede endlessly.
Paradox.
Of course his fist hits the door, shattering the halves. Of course sound reverberates. One knock, the start of something, because two knocks become a pattern, and with three, pattern becomes demand.
Half the distance, and half of the half. Halve that, and halve it again, let it diminish with motion, and his fist does it again.
