Creator: phantomlistener
Rating: Teen
Word Count/Length/Size: 1788 words
Creator's Summary: “Hi,” Tegan says, mock-formal. “My name’s Tegan Jovanka and I was possessed by a god from beyond the dawn of time. Twice.” Mel laughs, the tension suddenly gone. “Melanie Bush,” she returns, “and I was possessed by the god of death. Just once, mind you.” ~ Mel, after Empire of Death
Characters/Pairings: Melanie Bush, Tegan Jovanka
Warnings/Notes: Spoilers for s1/14/whatever; emotional trauma from possession.

Reasons for reccing: I came across this tonight and it filled a need I hadn't realised I had for some sort of fic dealing with Mel, post "The Empire of Death". It's well-drawn, beautifully written, and a lovely look at these two opposites bonding over unwanted shared experiences.
