    Summary

    The woman opened her mouth, about to say something—but then Agatha swept past, hitting her in the back with the hem of her coat. “Well, this seems fun. But stop flirting with the sullen one and get on with it, Jen. I don’t pay you to strike out with the customers.”

    The woman—Jen’s—face immediately twisted with such murderous annoyance that Alice had to stifle a laugh. She pushed herself off the counter and spun to shout after Agatha: “I was not striking out! Just because Rio won’t make out with you in the storage closet—”

    --

    Alice wants coffee. Jen wants to prove Agatha wrong. It turns into a bigger thing than either of them signed up for.

    (or, the Jen/Alice coffee shop au no one asked for)

    Summary

    After Halloween, she doesn’t think about that night too often. It was fun; now it’s over. They didn’t exchange phone numbers or anything of the sort.

    As a matter of fact, she doesn’t remember saying goodbye to Rio at all, or how she got home. She woke up in her own bed the next morning, and that was it.

    She doesn’t dwell on it. She doesn’t particularly like to dwell on anything.

    Until eight weeks later, when she’s sitting in her bathroom, clutching a pregnancy test.

    A positive pregnancy test.

    ------------------------------------------------------

    Rio is Death. Agatha is a regular human who finds herself unexpectedly pregnant after a one-night stand with a mysterious woman she meets in an eerie bar on Halloween.

    Summary

    Jen returns home and opens the school with a celebratory, no-fucks-given Instagram post. What—it’s the modern day. Kids like Billy are Googling shit.

    (The first person to make a Hogwarts joke wakes up to a reply scathing enough to take the skin off a cat; Jen blocks the rest and sets up a recurring donation to trans relief funds.)

    There are the trolls, and the upset suburban moms, and the conspiracy theorists, of course. But Jen has set the course, and within a week, young witches begin to seek it. They begin to find her.

    After the Road, Jennifer Kale opens a magic school.
