Fic: The Miserable and The Abandoned, Giles/Ethan, Prompt #2 Mens Rea

[strickens-girl.livejournal.com]

This is my answer to the tamingthemuse challenge of "Mens Rea" or guilty mind. I have a lot of thoughts about this fic, since it stired something inside me.

( Some thoughts about why I wrote this. )

Title: The Miserable and The Abandoned
Prompt: #2 - Mens Rea
Pairing: Giles/Ethan
Rating: Mature/Adults Only
Spoilers: Buffy Season Two The Dark Age and Buffy Season Four A New Man
Warnings: Slash, dark!fic, bloodplay.
Author's Note: The title of this fic comes from a quote from Frankenstein by Mary Shelly, tucked away under the cut because it's big. Ripper and Ethan inspired by a manip by wickedfox under the cut as well.

( Mens rea - literally guilty mind...the intention to commit a wrongful act, the element that establishes criminal responsibility; a criminal mind. )

Summary:     A confession from a "guilty" mind.

 I didn't think I'd get to submit anything because of my hand injury and all the work I've been doing to complete Burn.  But then I remembered this was about dragging muses back; so I dug out a story long abandoned and took a stab at it with fresh eyes. I thought it fit the prompt. Here ya go.
