d. osamu x reader ONE-SHOTS | The death drive, known as Todestrieb in German, is the drive towards death and destruction; such are aggression, compulsion, self-destructiveness. And you, the love of his life, the fragile sparrow bone in his calloused palm, stand before him as though he is not prepared to split his heart open with a knife, ensconce you within and slather honey on the wound; that you will live and not inhabit another. He enlivens all within you the ecstatic instinct for destruction. He, split and unravelling before you, crushes you in his grip, throws himself against your ribs, afraid that you are nothing but a cruel manifestation of his self-destructiveness.
