Two fab stories here by @nomad-sw18.bsky.social for @frazzledlit.bsky.social. Both so sumptuous, and both feel connected, with a theme of disposing of "inconvenient" parts

"Youโre here, Avi, in my home and my imagination gets unleashed. I imagine weโd fled, pursued music together. I imagine youโve placed your arm around me. I imagine holding your callused hands."
The amazing @sudhab.bsky.social @frazzledlit.bsky.social:

She Didn't Know

Two Poems by Jo Rigg
The reassurance machine

One of those stories that grabs you by the shoulder and then by the throat a little, not really letting you go. @eireneeleni.bsky.social writes a belter of a tale.
Take a look!
