Study after the Emperor’s Portrait of Captain Georgiou

[Image description: a red and blue painting of Emperor Georgiou with Philippa Georgiou’s head in her lap. The Emperor is in full imperial regalia, staring impassibly before her. A harsh cold light falls from above on her face, armour and hand, highlighting skull, ribcage and knuckles. Her hand is held over Philippa’s eyes. Philippa is screaming. End description]

When I love

I become liquid light

invisible to the eye

and the poems in my notebooks

become fields of mimosa and poppy.

[Image description: an illustration of Philippa Georgiou and Michael Burnham in Shenzhou’s quarters. Bathed in the orange light from the windows and the blue light from the ship, they are kissing with passion. In a plain strapless bra and uniform trousers, Philippa pulls Michael towards her, a hand on her neck. Michael only has her uniform jacket on, revealing plain white shorts and a strapless bra. She is tugging Philippa’s trousers open. End description]

[ID: a sketch of Michael Burnham and Emperor Georgiou facing each other, from the chest up. Teeth bared, Georgiou is leaning forward and pointing a dagger at Michael’s throat.

She is in uniform and her hair is worn short and curly at the top. End ID.]

[Image description: a drawing of Michael Burnham on the Shenzhou’s bridge. She is looking in the distance as Philippa Georgiou can be seen on the Captain’s chair holding a huge Samoyed dog in her arms. End description]

“Okay…” Michael whispers. “Okay.”

Her arms twitch at her sides, her fingers work. She leans forward on the balls of her feet, open yearning written on the soft planes of her beautiful face, and it’s clear to anyone with eyes what she wants.

It breaks Philippa’s heart to be the one to deny it to her, and further stomps on the pieces in that she must deny it to herself as well.

Soft quarters - still version

In the Crepusculan language, Assa taught her a word expressing the regret that a moment passing cannot be enjoyed to its full extent, its scope being too large. They used it to refer to the storm in the morning, and Michael pointed out the storm lasts forty-six revolutions, eighty-nine years, and that day rose every thirty-six hours. Assa did not understand Michael’s numbers and repeated the interlocked movement and accompanying purr.

She did not grasp their point then.
