Iron In The Blood

Fandom: Revolutionary Girl Utena
Ruka fought down a cough, tasted copper in his throat, ignored it all to act as controlled, as teasingly maddening as ever. They could not know. She could not know.
Couldn't know what he was doing, or why.
Couldn't find out what he'd been shown by a mad fallen prince at the Ends of the World.
Because of course he paid his price, saw what should never be seen -- what did it matter when he already walked a razor's edge?
Ends of the World gave him his chance. Expected him to fail. To amuse.
To break.
Let the nightmare come.
