a painting, candlelit and rose-toned, of (musicalverse’s) Death Becomes Her characters Madeline Ashton (L) and Helen Sharp (R). The illustration is a fairly close-cropped shot of both of them, Madeline with prominent vampire teeth, satisfied and heavy-lidded as she nestles her chin against Helen’s shoulder, one hand curling around to gently pull Helen’s shrug-robe away from her shoulder, exposing bare skin. Helen, featuring a few bloody bite marks on the top of her breast, neck, and shoulder, is leaning back into Madeline’s embrace, their cheeks touching as Helen turns to look at Madeline, expression darkened and a bit slack. Behind them is a window, dark and blue, speckled with rain. No one will disturb them tonight
just you and me, both damned to be
