    Summary

    Pippa gets a little drunk and asks Hecate out. Hecate doesn't exactly realize they've been dating.

    ***

    "It really is you," Pippa sighed contentedly. "Do you know, you're just the thing to make this night perfect?" She looked up at Hecate with a goofy grin on her face. Before Hecate could respond, Pippa grabbed her hand and turned back to the group.

    "Everyone, this is Hecate Hardbroom, the deputy head at Cackle's and potions mistress extraordinaire. She doesn't much go in for modern magic, so she'll probably scowl at you lot, but she's my very favorite person, so don't you dare scowl back."

    Summary

    Hecate turns on a heel and clenches a fist, spins and spins across the miles between Cackle’s and Pentangle’s. She doesn't know how she knows the path, only thrusts out her magic and focuses on Pippa. Pinpoints the place she can sense Pippa must exist in the material world, the mortal world, and pushes magic through the place Pippa has within her own heart. Forces the spell until she simply knows where to direct it.

    She lands hard on the stone right outside what must be Pippa’s chambers, shaking as her lungs fight to expand and her cells busy to reacquaint themselves with matter. With fear. Swaying slightly, she rests a palm against the stone casing around the door, collecting her bearings until the floor stops tilting under her feet and she is able to raise a trembling fist and knock.

    ****

    A mysterious and dangerous illness, hardly worse that the flu for children but deadly in the rare case it infects an adult, sweeps through Pentangle's. When Hecate learns that Pippa's been struck down by the malady she rushes to her side to keep a vigil, and she fears, say goodbye.

    Summary

    "Hecate, what's the matter? You're acting very strange." Pippa's brows are drawn together in concern.

    "I believe I've accidentally inhaled some of the exi veritas during the very last of the brewing process," Hecate admits slowly. "I should- I should go before I say anything I regret."

    "What could you possibly-" The rest of Pippa's question is cut off when Hecate abruptly ends the call.

    There are approximately two brief, blissful seconds of silence before Hecate begins to cry.

    Summary

    “So is Y/N your girlfriend?” Enoch asked disinterest seeping into his voice.

    Abe choked on his food, and you would've laughed if it wasn’t for the fact that his question made you sputter into your drink. You recovered first. “No, Abe and I are simply good friends.” You tried not to laugh, really tried, and you think you succeeded.

    “Do you have any kind of significant other?” Millard asked, and you weren’t sure who it was directed at. Until Abe looked at you expectantly, giving you an amused smile. He caught someone else’s eyes and suddenly was intently eating food.

    “Not currently.” And you glanced at Miss Peregrine you knew she had glared at Abe. He wouldn’t have looked like a child being fussed at, unless it was her.

    OR

    It’s 1943 and in the height of World War 2, needing a reprieve before being sent on your next assignment, Abe invites you to his home in Cairnholm. The one thing you didn’t anticipate was Alma Peregrine.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    One of the best stories I've read. So soft. If I don't download this for offline re-reading then I'm an idiot.
