Summary
In answer to the quote prompt on HSWC:
"I am writing with a burned hand about the nature of fire." - Ingeborg Bachmann
----
Love, as much as people like waxing lyrical on how it’s like fire and how it hurts when one comes too close, is different. Or that’s what Dirk thinks, in any case. Because if it were any similar, then love would very much be a concept he could grasp. Fire is physical, touchable, and he could always find a way around burning himself with it. Fire is heat and sustenance when he needs warmth and food, fire is his molder whenever he takes on another robotic project, fire is life in all ways but one.
