Vic & Luna

“You know that saying? Don’t judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, or whatever. Same goes for me, baby. Don’t judge a thief by his ability to follow rules.” Luna is going through her typical nightly routine; return home from work, contemplate her entire existence, masturbate in the shower, and head to bed. As she works through her mundane regimen, she hears a thump, and then another thump. Someone has broken into her apartment, and now he’s coming for her. Vic is on a job with his brothers, robbing an old apartment in a neglected part of town in search of money for the mysterious organization. He’s preparing to knock out the tenant in the shower when he pulls back the curtain and lays eyes on a creature so beautiful he falls to his knees. Surely she’s a gift from the universe, all for him. Over the course of the next week, Vic forces himself into Luna’s life in more ways than one, and Luna, quite disturbed with herself, realizes she doesn’t hate it as much as she should. As things start to unravel, questions of honesty, identity, and perspective come into play.
