GREED AND CHARITY

\>You pull around back, hiding from the road. \>You're not sure it'll help, but at least passerbys won't get curious about the car full of bulletholes and clawmarks. \>Something bumps and knocks as the engine spins down. The electronics still...

GLUTTONY AND TEMPERANCE

\>Rebecca hugs you. \>You stiffen, but don't resist. \>She's warm. Soft. \>Overwhelmingly all-encompassing. \>"Anon --" she starts, but stops partway through. \>She pulls you closer instead. \>Her size means your head doesn't...
