That was cute as hell.

Cute but I was hoping for more negotiations than just reading about the two singing.

I hadn't remembered just how much I loved Claudie's writing. This online short was a piece that could very easily be a scene out of a longer story. It tells a moment in time between Lemon and Salt, two performers who are also lovers in a not-disclosed cyberpunk styled world.
When the tabloids talk about how they are each nothing without the other, the two of them decide to put on a show in which Lemon does the first half and Salt does the second. And it turns out that this even excites their audience more thoroughly than they have when they've performed together.
It was a delightful story about subverting expectations and included the lovely non-binary Lemon and they're lady lover Salt. It is available here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/lemon-s...

My opinion
This was a last-minute read for Diversity Bingo 2017 for me and I'm so, so glad I chose this. "Lemon & Salt" was a quick read, and a lovely one indeed. Super cute with great puns. Even though it was just a short story, I loved the characters and their relationship, and I loved reading about a queerplatonic relationship like this. Highly recommended!

P.S. 4 instead of 5 stars only because i’m a picky, petty former musician.
