(The administration would like to apologize for the fact that we are currently on lockdown, and will likely remain so for the foreseeable future. Explanations will come to those who ask, provided you have correctly filled out all your paperwork and proven to the guard at the security desk that you are not actually a ninja in disguise.)

(Lists, other people's poetry, and the majority of my own writing will be open to the public, but for personal reasons everything I'd written for the Hooker!Verse is now private and inaccessable. Everything personal will be going under a friend's lock after a week as public posts. Most of my fic is hosted here, but my work can also be found in the archives links listed in the sidebar.)

(Please comment if adding, and have a good day. :D)

Disclaimer: Luke and Moira are Margaret Atwood’s, I’m just borrowing them for a minute. No profit is being made, and no copyright infringement is intended.
Notes: The inspiration behind the Exodus comes from the original book, where it’s implied that Fred – or another Gileadean officer, Fred Judd, who was a “potential” possibility for Offred's commander – was involved in the “repatriation” of Jews after the takeover, which resulted in “more than one boatload of Jews” just being “dumped into the Atlantic to maximize profits.” There’s a lot of this book that has stuck with me over the years, but this especially.

I watched the finale and have not stopped bawling my eyes out over Rebecca and her dad, and I am always crying about Luke and Moira and their missing family, so here we are.
