Sais and Butter Knives (Elektra/Elektra | PG13 | 9,212 words): When Elektra is resurrected as the Black Sky, she comes back as two people. This is an interesting exploration of Elektra and her desires and the different aspects of her, and I like that it gives her space to be her own person.
Excerpt:
"Who am I?"
She returns to the mirror as she asks that question. She asks Elektra's scars as if they can tell her. They can't. She doesn't recognise herself. She doesn't know Elektra and she doesn't know the Black Sky.
She wants to know Elektra. She wants to know why she doesn't need her anymore. Elektra knows things. She knows who she is. Not the Black Sky, but… someone. How can she find Elektra? Alexandra won't tell her.
