  2. Summary

    This alternate universe diverges during the "Be My Valentine" flashbacks with Janette bringing Fleur across. It then parallels canon, different by Fleur's presence. Stories in this series are not sequential; each may be read alone.

    (Fireweed, epilobium angustifolium, is a flower that thrives in the aftermath of wildfires in northern climates.)

  3. Summary

    Things changed when Lacroix returned in second season.  "Be My Valentine:"
          Nick: "What feeble excuse can you have for backing down on our agreement?"
          Lacroix: "I have not 'backed down' on our agreement!"
          Nick: "You gave your word, Lacroix, never to invade my life with your mindless killing!"

    These stories are sequential. However, they were posted in different venues at different times, so each also stands fully on its own.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    From three flashes of Purah's life leading up to the start of Breath of the Wild, this character study delivers a rich, nuanced reading of her motivations, with emphasis on her as a mechanic and as someone who shouldered guilt beyond her due. It touches on bittersweet and fierce second chances, grabbing at life, and the value of living compared to being alive. It brought tears to my eyes and made itself my Purah headcanon.
