As a writing experiment, I thought I'd try to distill November, that long Zeke fic I posted the other day, into a drabble.
Here's the result:
November
by Serai
Zeke’s apartment surprises everyone who walks into it.
His interest in photography has filled his place with images glowing in black and white. They enchant the girls he brings here, each of them a link in a melancholy, erotic chain. All of them leading back to one image, one moment, one buried memory, denied its depth and relegated to the cool confines of art, the source of his fascination stripped away, leaving only sad, beautiful echoes.
Now the photos that have only been photos take on their true meaning, and he finally sees how he is handcuffed to the past.
