Drabbles can be difficult to write--framing is always an issue, and the more one tries to capture, the harder it is to find a way to express it compactly while still showing the essential relationships. Aervir manages to put two characters into comparison here by finding a common theme that governs how the drabble unfolds, and she ends on a question, reflected in the title. Very tight writing to get all of that in such a small space in an effective manner.

In just a hundred words aervir hints at an extra-canonical relationship and how it might be viewed by the two peoples. Not an easy task.
