Summary
My father watched every move I ever made from the moment I was born, until I found a way to set myself free...Tying a noose with an extension cord in a lifeless silver elevator. Hoisting myself up on a bin and draining my life away as it rose towards his office. It took 15 minutes for someone to find me and 2 weeks in the ICU for me to wake up. My father never visited, opting instead to send me away somewhere I would have no control. Lumon. My prison.

Summary
Burt can’t look away. He doesn’t want this to end. He wants to keep sitting here in this garden, chatting with a charming stranger whose name he doesn’t even know. He wants to make him laugh again, wants to see those eyes light up, wants —
He really should say something before this gets out of hand.
‘I should probably tell you —’ The words stick in his throat. Burt forces them out. ‘Nothing’s going to happen here. I’m married.’ The admission feels like a betrayal, though he’s not sure of whom.

Summary
This piece is an ongoing exploration of Helena's inner world, inspired by the Zufu dinner scene in Season 2. It begins pre-OTC.
I pretend that Helena never had sex with Mark's innie at the ORTBO (not because I am trying to make her more palatable, but because as of now I just don't care for that scene...).
Somehow Kate Middleton, or a Kate lookalike, has also entered the universe because she is interested in the severance procedure.

Summary
A character study of Irving from the television show Severance, as he falls in love with Burt. Other characters are briefly featured in the story, but it is mostly focused on the two of them. This is VERY self-indulgent and full of internal monologues. It is NOT canon-compliant, but involves a happy(yet angsty) ending for ALL characters!
I hope you enjoy it. I wanted to make a contribution to this ship's fan fictions because there are so few of them! Thank you for reading, and please let me know what you think!
Title is from Ocean Vuong's On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous. Fantastic book, truly. I recommend it.
NOW PART OF A SERIES---Decided to add more!
