Son of Celluloid - Daaamn!

“She took one step back down the stairs but it reached for her suddenly, and caught her before she toppled, silencing her quickly, intimately.

This one might not have much passion to steal, but it sensed another use here. The nder body was still budding: the orifices unused to invasions. It took Lindi up the few remaining stairs and sealed her away for future investigation.”

chapitre 3 : surveillance ciblée

"New Murders in the Rue Morgue" a bit silly / end of book 2

- Chapitre 6 : « Reprendre corps »

💖 « L’écoute ne cherche donc ni à absorber en soi (empathie) ni à expliquer (introspection), mais à accueillir cette irréductible altérité. (…) Écouter, c'est créer un espace, non pas de fusion, mais d’accueil de la parole qu’autrui formule en son nom. C’est “recevoir l’altérité de l’autre et la laisser résonner”, sans chercher à la traduire ou à la réduire à ses propres expériences. »

Chapitre 5 - Éthique et politique de la réparation
