    And here we are. The White Pipe story. I have been dreading this one. I didn’t really have a plan for this chapter, except that I needed to drop on a sword for a manager that didn’t respect me. I need to stab Mary’s eyes out. Needed to be scared to death by a blood-curdling…

    And I bow as I step onto the dance floor, and the strings strain, and the bodies around us move. Bodies of abusers and saviors. Rose dances with Olsen, Destiny with Tiger. The music plays, we all twirl, and I take each of the next stories out onto the floor. The waltz is the most…
