    Summary

    In the beginning, they were the Dessendre family. No more. No less.

    There was a fire; Renoir knew that much. The specifics had never mattered. Like a nightmare, the finer points had since faded. Renoir concerned himself with one thing: he’d been there. Verso lived. His little one would carry her scars the remainder of her life, but she lived too. He could ask no more than that.

    Seven years after the fire, the nightmare began again. Only this time, Renoir could not wake. The Fracture shook the world apart. He stood powerless as the foundations of the earth crumbled.

    Summary

    “In case you’ve forgotten, Aline is not the only member of your family.”

    He thinks of Verso, buried in the cold earth. He thinks of Alicia, a ghost of herself. A better man would have at least considered leaving, compromise—so many things. There would have been a moment, a crisis of faith, where he stopped and saw the insanity of their situation.

    For Renoir, the moment never comes. Instead, he says, "Clea, this will all be over soon."

    Summary

    “And Papa knows I have vertigo.”

    Then why did it seem so simple for Maman’s creation and Maelle to soar?

    Or: Maelle wants to fly. Alicia is afraid. A conversation with her mirror-self at the top of the Reacher's tower may help her integrate the two girls.

    Summary

    Maelle enters near-soundlessly. When she’s done hanging up her coat, she takes short, measured steps as fast as one could reasonably call walking across the room, like she’s desperate to run, like she’s keeping herself back. She’s done this every day, whether Emma’s home or not, and so Gustave knows to put down the trinket he’s fiddling with and open his arms so the girl he’d die for a thousand times over can fall into them. She squeezes him close, cheek pressed against Gustave’s chest.

    He can’t blame Maelle for searching for his heartbeat. He made her watch him die, after all. It’s the one thing he’ll never be able to atone for.

    When she’s apparently satisfied, she lets go and brushes her vest off. She looks composed now, walled-off, but Gustave knows better, knows that her poise is a mask.

    Maelle saved the world, but she doesn’t seem happy. Gustave tries to find out why.

    Summary

    Once Maelle fixed the canvas world, once she brought everyone back and offered them all their happy ending, there was still one person she couldn't bring herself to give the same gift to. But this was a happy ending, it had to be, for everyone.
    And everyone included Renoir.
    She brought him back to but made sure he still paid for what he did, she took something from him.
    And when faced with the chance to have his faimly and his life back, the sacrifice of his eyesight seemed very small to him.

    ----

    Renoir centric fic where he's brought back in the Maelle ending. He's been blinded as vengeance by her but has a chance to fix old bridges and maybe build new ones.
    I just want him to have a chance at a happy ending in this whole mess.

    Summary

    Renoir places his hands on her shoulders, horrified to feel the prominence of bone beneath his touch, a far cry from the vital young woman she’s always been. He worries his thumb over her clavicle. “What would you have had me do?”

    "See to your family. You had duties here.”

    “Is your mother not family?”

    Post "A Life to Love" Ending, Renoir and Clea have a much-needed conversation.

    Summary

    Maelle lifts her hand slowly, trailing it up smooth leather and black fabric. Her fingers find twisted skin, running over the many bumps and contortions, until her palm comes to a stop on the white-haired woman's cheek.

    Alicia is staring at her - wide-eyed, more confused than anything. She thought Maelle would understand.

    or: At The Reacher, Maelle refuses to gommage Alicia.

    Summary

    Continues directly from Maelle ending. A rollercoaster of seriousness and humour as I try to steer everyone to a happy ending. More info in the notes. My length estimation has constantly stretched further, but I think there should now be only 3 chapters left.
