YAY, I'm so glad you like it! I'll tell you a secret: this ficlet really just a prequel to a bigger story, one that I'll finish after the luau and dedicate to you, since your prompt inspired it. I'm gonna tell more about the bruises/tattoos and the scars...so I'm really pleased that you liked this part. That inspires me to keep going! Thank you SOOO much! ♥
