Then Everything Was Worth It by AmethystUnarmed

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
“I never imagined this,” he murmurs, barely above a whisper. His voice is muffled against her skin—but she feels it all the same, a gentle rumble deep inside.
She tilts her head, curious and smiling still. “This?”
“You. Us.” His gaze lifts again, and she’s nearly undone by it—so open, and sofull.
“I thought I’d spend my life looking at stars I’d never touch.”
Her heart twists, no in pain, but in something heavier—something full. Rose drags her hands higher, carding her fingers through his hair, lips twitching at the way he leans into it. “You’re touching one now.”
~~~
Or: I think Rose and John should fuck, and so I wrote this.

Summary
“Where is Samuel? I haven’t seen him around the deck for a while.”
“Resting,” Margaret answers, sighing. “Thank God. I think he could do with a break. People have been…rather unreceptive to him when he talks about that strange man he met, and I think it rattled him badly, even before that–” she hesitates. She’s only just calmed John down, perhaps she should not mention this now.
“-that fog, yes,” He finishes. His voice only slightly wavers. “He’s been working non-stop once again, hasn’t he? Samuel always does throw himself into ways to help where he can.”
She can’t see the Brick Satellite that well in the daylight, but her gaze rises to where it would rest in the sky. How many bricks had Samuel laid for it, working well into the night? “Sometimes, I believe he may be the strongest of all of us,” she says. “No matter what, he stays by the sides of those he cares for, working himself to the bone to see it through. But even he needs to rest eventually.”
OR
A missing scene - what was it like, when AJ went to go find Margaret? Perhaps she was talking with a dear friend.

Summary
Dear Samuel,
I never thought I’d be able to pick up a notebook again—not after you. Nothing feels the same without you. Do you know that? Did you realize, when you made that choice, that you didn’t just end your own life but took part of mine with you?

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
“It’s a star,” John declared. He and Rose had been looking through their telescopes for hours. She stood beside him as he stared at what, in his opinion, was clearly just an ordinary star.
“Look again at it again. It isn’t a star,” Rose insisted. She was sure of what she saw. Rose had been studying the stars for as long as she could remember. This was something different. "It's a planet."
Or: Rose Stratford discovers the next planet after Uranus.

The Harrowing Disappearances of Herschel and Hanover by SnarkyWallflower
Fandoms: Pulp Musicals Series - Dahan
06 Aug 2024
Tags
Summary
This week on Buzzfeed Unsolved, we’re going to be covering a particularly old case. Nearly two centuries old, actually!
We’re dragging it out of its old, withered grave, making its corpse dance for all of your amusement! Disrespect the dead!
…Not the way I would have put it, but fair enough. We’ll be talking about the disappearances of the Brick Satellite’s founders, Sir John Herschel and Anna Hanover, all the way back in 1835. But for a case so old, it’s got a surprising amount of evidence still laying around. And a lot of theories. Let’s get into it.
OR
Buzzfeed Unsolved would have a field day with EVERYTHING that happened with the Family in Brick, and I'll die on this hill.
