OP here! Thank you so much! You did such a good job of making the blood witches really scary and vile. I'm going to pretend this is an au where Rosalind tells them it's Blood witches in Aster Dell and they're all so hurt by what happened to Saul and Andreas that they don't stop the burning from happening. So that they get to stay together for ever.

Poor Saul who can't stand Andreas's touch now but never stops loving him. Poor Andreas consumed by guilt for actions that weren't his own but we're his body. You captured it really well! I really liked the bit at the end where you had Andreas caring for Saul as much as Saul would allow
