Notes: This was written partly for thamiris's Porn-o-Thon and partly for the ongoing Geologyfic party in my head. It is also weird and rifty and may not actually make a lot of sense.

Warnings for pretension and Classical Mythology, I guess.

I was in the shower last night, around midnight, and a number of things came together in my head: a Clex drabble I wrote at Wiscon and never did anything with, an icon Molly had the other day that referenced Theseus and Pirithous and made me think about them again, the thunderstorm outside, the fact that Invention of Love has been on the top of my reference book pile for weeks, the pattern of question-and-answer in the Cupid and Psyche part of Mary Zimmerman's Metamorphoses, Catullus. I got out of the shower and jotted down a few paragraphs before I went to sleep, woke up this morning with more words, and wrote the rest on the plane. It's more than a drabble, less than a story, and entirely unbetaed. This is for Molly, even though she didn't ask for it.
