Just two days ago, MJ hadn’t even known the name Peter Parker. Just two days ago, MJ had thought her life had been enough. She had a degree from MIT and a generous boyfriend and multiple job offers. She had Ned, and her dad, and it had been enough. It had been more than enough.

Summary
“You’re a fool, Harry Potter. And you will lose.”
Six years ago, Harry had sat on a rickety stool with a hat toppled over her eyes and begged for Gryffindor. The hat had hummed in consideration, and Harry had scowled, but its response had seared itself into her brain: “It’s a shame. You’ve got a winning spirit.”
Now, she stared out paralyzed into the woods watching the sun crest over the horizon, as she watched where Ron and Hermione had disapparated hours ago.
The locket in her hands pulsed.
Here’s the thing: Harry Potter may be a fool, but she will not lose.

Summary
Here’s the thing: Ginny had always been a little lonely.
As a girl, she had dashed, barefoot and alone, through the fields behind the Burrow. She learned the breaststroke with the carp and flew on her training broom with the sparrows. She braided wildflowers into crowns that would never serve any purpose, and had begged Ron and the Twins to let her in on their games.
Even before Ron left for Hogwarts, Ginny was sure she’d never fit in anywhere. After all, she couldn’t carve a place for herself in her own home. Why would Hogwarts be any different?
So, when she flipped open her new diary and began sketching calla lilies in swirls of ink, when the ink sank into the page and reformed into words—when the diary said: ‘Hello. That’s a beautiful drawing. My name is Tom. What’s yours?’
Well, Ginny had always been a little lonely.
‘Hello. My name is Ginny.’

When Elara feels the cold sting of the needle, she thinks, inexplicably, of Zeke’s baseball: white leather, red stitching. Clutched in his hand as he sold them out.
It all ends. And it all begins again.

Summary
Erika is twelve when she gets her words. Twelve and suddenly, terrifyingly alone. Her stomach heaves as German soldiers drag her mother from the room. The skin of her mother’s legs scrape against the sharp edges of crushed file cabinets.
Charles is nine when he gets his words. Nine and sitting in a crowded hospital waiting room listening to thoughts he has yet to realize are not his own. He stares at the words on his wrist as if they did him personal wrongdoing.
