    Summary

    The original story of Judas never sat right with me. Why is Judas so ignored in the gospels? I want to hear his side of the story. Since that will never happen I decided to write this little character study of Judas and Jesus and their relationship. God is not the 'Bad Guy', but he is an ineffable puppet master. Jesus is a mediator through and through. Judas is covetous and ambitious, just not the way God intended.

    In other words, my religious trauma hit me like a truck and I've been on the verge of a minor anxiety attack all week. So i decided to put my energy into writing this wonderful little fic (that will probable get me sent to outer darkness) instead of focusing on all the grad school work I still need to complete.

    (side-note: i was raised in a very orthodox LDS household so my version of events may differ from the bible you know)

    Summary

    “This is a good knife, you know,” Essek says, conversationally. “I had it made for general practical usage, as well as for fighting, in emergencies.”

    Caleb holds the knife. It is small and neat, the edge looks sharp.

    Summary

    “Alright," says Martin. “I guess you can at least try, can’t you?”
    “I can do it,” says Jon. “I have to. No statements.”
    “No statements,” Martin agrees, and Jon doesn’t let himself Know if he means it or not.

    At the safehouse with Martin, Jon decides it's time to quit statements once and for all. The Eye disagrees. Martin just needs Jon to be okay. It's quite possible that nobody is going to get what they want.
