Day 2,110

When it first found her it wore her like a third sister's hand-me-downs - too loose in some places, too tight in others and overall entirely unflattering. Unfortunately flattery was the last thing on its mind, draining her spinal fluid to make way for its own developing body took priority.

Within a year it wore her like a sixteen year old wears a suit to prom - ill-fitting enough to notice but so bad that anyone would tell them to their face. Maybe they'll make snide remarks after the photos are printed in the school's monthly newspaper but they'll forget about it soon enough.

Within five years it wore her like well-loved slippers - frayed around the edges, truly past their prime but too comfortable t throw away for a fresh set. That would be its downfall. While the rest of its kind went through hosts like sunscreen in summer,it settled further inside, spreading out and draining her away to a bruised shell.

At ten years it had been with her for longer than any of its kind thought possible. Of course she was only skin at that point, not even her eyes or teeth remained and it couldn't possibly be seen by other humans but it no longer cared for the rest of humanity or even finding another host in order to survive.

It had been the-corpse-formerly-known-as-Deborah for ten years and it wanted to be nobody else.
