Why we recommend it

The third Buttons installment: after hate comes pain. Sky writes the captive romance with the pain as the next emotional layer — the buttons are still closing something, the pain is what's inside the closed thing, and the progression from lace to hate to pain is the captive romance in full emotional accumulation.
