“What?”

Summary
"Don't cry," a voice called out from behind her. "Here, take my handkerchief." Someone outstretched a hand and offered a silk handkerchief to her. Rose wasn't sure if she could trust this stranger, but his voice was gentle and she really wanted to dry her eyes. She was rather embarrassed to be crying in front of a total stranger. He didn't know that her brother had recently died. He probably assumed that she was being ridiculous.
She turned around to face him. It seemed fair that she thanked this man for his kindness before running away from the paper stand. When she finally caught sight of him, her jaw dropped in shock. She blinked again and again and again to make sure her eyes were still working properly. Rose wasn't convinced they were. She must've been hallucinating (hell, she could've been hallucinating the whole time). The man standing in front of her appeared to be a carbon copy of her brother.Or: Rose reunites with her brother Samuel after days apart.

Chapter One - Lost Time _ A Pulp Musical Fanfiction by Softballjelly

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
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
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
Rose Stratford, the final branch of the Stratford family tree, clings to her little brother. His skin grows cold, his eyes grow empty, and still she hugs him. Just like when they were young, sharing beds and stories in sleepless nights in a home not quite home. In triumph at their success, in relief of their survival, in awe of the space hanging around them, in reunion after many days passed, and yet only hours at the same time. Only now Samuel cannot hug her back, and still she clings like he might go.
