Summary
There are a million things John should be thinking about. Margaret’s growing power and the strange words she’d mumbled, the wonder of the Nautilus traveling through the sky, what on earth they were going to do about Samuel… But John can’t seem to focus on a single one. Instead, he spins the phrase We can't travel back in time over and over and over in his head.
Because that can’t be right. John knows that can’t be true, that Sia must have misspoke. Because, if that were true, that would mean…
“Sia,” he says, dread heavy as lead in his veins. “How did you check on Anna?”
~~~
In the wake of Samuel's death, John learns about time travel and has questions.

Summary
The grotto is enchanting.
Every time Samuel’s eyes move around while walking through it, he swears they catch on a new wonder. Each item seems to gleam with promise. Gears click, a slight buzz coming off others, both melding with the sound of Samuel's steps—it all creates a melody of its own, weaving its way through the grotto. Some he can decipher what the purpose may be, but there are plenty where he has absolutely no clue. How much of that is because of how much time has passed, and how much is because science has only ever been something he's listened to, never pursued on his own? He's unsure.
Still, there is a strange, undeniable beauty to them. They look carefully constructed—however they have been built, there is no doubt in Samuel's mind that it took time, love, and precision to make them whatever they are.
It can't be anything but.
He won't deny that they thrill him—masterpieces, all.
OR
Well, we all know Dakkar caught up on Margaret’s adventures, we all know exactly who told them to him--so what did that look like? I have ideas.

Summary
Kal can hear cannon-fire in the distance, echoing and loud, only making his smile grow wider. Dakkar’s hands spark with Radiance, their bones faintly aglow, as he clearly struggles to call on any magic at all. His determination really is impressive, Kal will admit. But it’s to no avail. The sparks are tiny, and sputter out in the very next second.
It’s as simple as can be to walk over to where he's fallen, and lean down.

Summary
Even when Margaret regains her memories, things are still hard for her and her companions. Dakkar cries because he mourns, Sia cries because she’s scared, and Margaret cries because it was possible.

Summary
"I think my magic is gone," she told Dakkar. Margaret was ashamed of herself. She had already messed things up. She was no where close to the powerful Traveler she must've been once. Margaret felt a strong urge to cry.
"Try again," Dakkar instructed. Margaret once again failed to produce any radiance. Dakkar's expression didn't change. All he said was, "Ah, it seems like you need to recharge."
"Recharge? Is that like resting?" Margaret wondered.
"It has the same effect," her brother replied.
Or: Dakkar teaches Margaret about recharging.

Summary
Samuel put down the journal and turned to Addison with a huge grin on his face. He had just seen the doodle she included on the bottom of the page. Three squiggly bears, one large one and two small ones, stared up at him with their dot shaped eyes. They reminded him of the little lunar buffalo that sat somewhere in the pages of his own notebook. He realized that he a lot in common with Addison. She was from another world, but unlike the rest of Lincoln Island's inhabitants, she seemed almost human, even if she wasn't. Reading her journal and hearing her commentary on it was fun.
Or: Samuel and Addison read each other’s journals.

Summary
John doesn't know what to say. The silence feels sacred, something far too important to break with useless platitudes or idle conversation. It's why he is so surprised when she finally speaks.
“Do you think Benjamin is dead too?” Rose asks, apropos of nothing, and John nearly chokes on air.
“What?”
~~~
John and Rose have a moment alone on the Nautilus. Rose considers the implications of time travel.

Summary
She hears the door behind her open, and she knows it has to be Sia, coming to check on her. She knows Margaret best, after all.
“I knew that I would find you here,” Sia says. “You always liked looking at the sky when you were upset.” The words are gentle, even slightly teasing. An olive branch. A foot in the door.
But they only make Margaret remember another conversation, back what feels like years ago on the roof of her apartment. The words are so vivid in her mind, she can almost imagine him beside her. She swallows the welling lump in her throat.
“Right.”
~~~
Margaret remembers everything. It's complicated.

Summary
Warning - SPOILERS FOR THE "Searcher in the Shadows" AHEAD. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
Author Notes - After listening to the searcher in the Shadows and crying my eyes out and realizing I had no idea when the next part of the story will come out or if a certain character would be making a comeback. I decided to create a semi prequel of sorts. I have many theories about how he could potentially return. However, I came up with a rather far fetched idea, trying my best to follow rules we already know about these characters. Any errors or discrepancy to the original work are entirely my own.
Summary - The Purple button is pressed. Leading to the heartbreaking death of one of our beloved characters. However what if that wasn't the end. Now that character finds themselves trapped on the blazing world where they have no way to get back home except to wait it out knowing the collapse of this world is inevitable.

Summary
It hasn’t been going according to plan for a long, long time, but this is so far beyond what she’s known. Her world is spinning, spinning, still dizzy from the shock of being thrown forward into this strange new world. She struggles to keep herself upright, to not collapse here and now.
I’m not dead, she reminds herself, as one hand dances along her necklace, the other clutching tight to the orrery. The orrery, gleaming gold with that design of the Solar System on its face, yet another thing she does not understand. If she tries, she can still hear Addison’s voice in her ears, telling her what it was as that other strange device buzzed in her hands, and who would be waiting to take it from her. It’s still warm in her hands, thrumming with the power it’s just used to throw her out of her own space and time, and she won’t—can’t let go of it.
Margaret will be waiting for you! See you on—
“This must be Lincoln Island,” she says aloud.

Laws Of Motion AU by FaeryPeopleOfTheFutureDay, MidnightNautilus, SnarkyWallflower
Fandom: Pulp Musicals Series - Dahan
13 Aug 2025
Summary
I write as a way for my brain to break the Laws of Motion! And here we are...
Kallum and Alessia Peregrine, twins in New York City! Kal, a cunning chemist-turned-writer, and Sia, a woman who knows a lot of things, who has a plan for her life she’ll see through. They use the name of one of the brightest minds of their time, Dame Anna Hanover, a charming woman who hides far too much behind a cheerful smile, to get their words and names out there. The words draw in Dakkar Cavendish, a brilliant inventor who feels like he’s made promises—but to who, he doesn’t know.
The editor, Charles, hates his job, and is reluctantly convinced into printing the twins’ words. John Herschel won’t be a pawn, his plan to launch his and his dearest friend’s invention drawing near. Benjamin, the governor, seethes with jealousy, watching the Satellite with growing bitterness.
And in the distance, a Traveller with far too much behind her waits, refusing to fail anyone else. A young man with a pencil grins far too brightly, as his pencil gleams with ink, ready to take down your words. Only your words, of course.
What are you waiting for? Don’t be scared of the dark. That’s where the dreaming starts.
