ice has covered up my parents' hands

Date & Time: October 17th - 19th
Location: Stockholm, Sweden via the VR!
Characters: Lisbeth Salander and YOU
Summary: Lisbeth recreates Stockholm in the VR, a place she didn't think she'd miss.
Warnings: Cursing, spoilers for The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and I'll add others as the threads go on.

[When Lisbeth overheard others on the base talking about the VR and how they would re-create their homes, she almost scoffed. She wouldn't even dream of making Stockholm again. Sure, it was a city that she knew intimately like none other, but it was an open, festering wound on her psyche. She wouldn't wish what she experienced in Stockholm on any other girl or woman. However, the thought made itself at home in her head. With nothing to really do on the base other than despise the five minute ice showers and spar, Lisbeth had plenty of time to think about it.

She missed somewhere familiar. Even though she knew the scabbing underbelly of the city, Lisbeth missed the lights, the horizon at dusk, and the biting cold on her nose during winter. It takes days before Lisbeth breaks down; she recreates Stockholm just as she remembered it - sometimes it's Christmastime, sometimes it's the beginning of December, and sometimes it's the New Year.

Lisbeth could feel goosebumps breaking over her skin as the temperature begins to drop in the VR.]
