Title: A Fine and Private Place
Fandom: Original work
Characters: Necromancer/Zombie [f/f]
Rating: Explicit
Length: ~2.7k words
Summary: A roving ghoul with vengeance on her mind. A necromancer just a little too enchanted with her morbid trade. And maybe, just maybe, a chance to feel alive again.
Notes: An original f/f piece starring characters who are technically pre-existing OCs of mine, but which predictably I have done little with outside of this one story. Zombie POV! The unnamed narrator, incidentally, eventually becomes a medic of sorts and goes by the name Sawbones. In my head, anyway.
Contains some light cannibalism, danger kink, descriptions of gore and general grossness, and some threats of murder, but the tone is relatively light and despite the threat of magical compulsion it's all consensual.
I originally wrote this as a gift for someone in Smutswap 2017, for their prompt of a female necromancer x female undead. Unfortunately, I'm not sure who it was for. They ended up having to refuse the gift because someone was going through their gifted works and harrassing people who had written for them :/ I do appreciate them looking out for their gifters and I hope they're doing all right now.
Title from "To His Coy Mistress" by Andrew Marvell, one of my favorite lines: "The grave's a fine and private place/ But none, I think, do there embrace."
( Besides, I was far too busy trying to hack off my leg to notice her at first. )
