Summary
The truce was established fifteen years ago, and Borogravia has changed almost beyond recognition since then. Now, for the first time, an Ankh Morpork journalist has been invited in for an extended interview with the famous Captain Polly Perks. Sometimes, change is a trickle of water down a mountainside. Sometimes, it's an avalanche.

Bookmarker's Notes
$9 slips the postcard back underneath some papers on his desk and tries to regain focus. The minute or so he spent reading it at all was stolen; he certainly doesn't have time to write back. He's been behind on work since approximately two seconds after being assigned this job. He doesn't know why his chest suddenly hurts so much more than the usual amount attributable to Smog, but it probably isn't important. Plenty of things hurt. He's getting good at ignoring them.

“Ah. Where is he now?”
The look on Bendie’s face made Chorby wish they could have taken that question back.
“Oh…sorry, I know incineration is—“
“It wasn’t incineration,” Bendie said, shaking their head. “Incineration would have been a mercy, if you can believe it.”
They took a step back and started pacing, their arms crossed tightly. Chorby looked on, feeling a sense of guilt eating at them as they watched.
“I’m so sorry, Bendie...”
“No, it’s—you’re fine, don’t worry about it. I’ll be fine. This happened a few years ago. It’s just…I miss them, y’know? I wish I could tell you what actually happened to them, but the best I got for you is ‘they went missing.’”

Bendie sips their coffee. Glabe’s tea takes a little longer, and they’re down to the dregs by the time she joins them at the table. The beanbag crowd stirs awake one by one. Glabe watches them extract themselves from tangled limbs and quilts. Patty kisses Bendie on the forehead and steals the coffee pot while they’re distracted. Fynn turns the TV on, sparking protests from Sandie and whatever poor soul is half-buried under his tail.

INTERVIEWER
Alright. Let’s start this off with something simple, just to get it on the record. What’s your name?GOODIE
I’m Goodie. Goodie McSriff, technically, but everyone knows me as Goodie from Bloodpool, or just Goodie Bloodpool. (She pauses.) Which is legally my name now, which I’m sure makes searching me specifically on the internet really fun. Sorry about that, everyone.INTERVIEWER
And is there anything people might recognize you from?GOODIE
I was the only survivor of the Bloodpool murders. Because I killed the serial killer with a blaseball bat. And then it turned out he wasn’t dead, and I had to kill him again after he broke into my apartment to get revenge six months later, and then I was really the only survivor of the Bloodpool murders.- Language:

GOODIE
My teammates made an effort to actually get to know me as a person. It helps. When I brought up I was thinking about an interview, they actually suggested it should be someone like you, mostly because you'd give a shit if you thought you were hurting my feelings. It also helps that at the end of the last season we all thought we might explode. -

Bookmarker's Notes
“That was optimistic of you,” she said cheerfully. “It’s okay. If I need any more words, I’ll start yelling. I need to practice, anyway, so I can fit in around here.” Not just the team, but New York in general, tended to be loud.
“...I liked what you said, though. Sounded like you actually got something out of the weird… cheesy abstract theme our team got assigned. Youth will save us and all.”
“Well, that’s because I’m a weird, cheesy, abstract person,” she said very seriously. “And also, I really wanted to explain how wrong you all were.”

Bookmarker's Notes
Too many times being the only one who looks like you in the room, too many times having the hum of a song under your skin in a language no one else knows. You’re always moving; half in some desperate attempt to keep pace with your own brain, and half to stop the feeling that you might combust and take half the block with it.
line that kills me. fic that strangles me in general but line in particular that makes every single feeling inside of me get louderand there were no warm feelings between the Firefighters and Tigers where you came from. But once again you’re confronted by the kindness, the warmth this world holds in comparison to the one you grew up in, and it’s enough to make you want nothing more than to shy away. There’s a reason, you think, that you haven’t called back to Chicago, because there’s a part of you, all these years on, that still doesn’t know how to accept the breadth of people caring for you.
breaking tradition because this line also hits me in a different set of favorite emotions -

Summary
Four people died on the Garages in Season 3. The end of it found Raúl and Randy on the roof of the Big Garage, Tot joining them late and tucking hir legs through the holes in the railing. Randy rolled an unlit blunt between his fingers, and Raúl hummed staticky party music, and none of them said a word until the sun was dipped in the horizon and it was only a little lighter than the eclipses get.
“People aren’t supposed to die while I’m alive.” Raúl’s voice was matter-of-fact, with no guilt or grief hidden in the folds of its echoing tones. It was mimicking Tot, that day, all flat affect and subtle twists. Sometimes it didn’t manage the twists. “When do we get to stop it?”

In another world, the San Francisco Lovers were cursed by the Mic. Ripped apart time after time, scattered to the winds, shippers of Theseus holding hands with the Fridays. Don Mitchell ‘blessed’ with Reverberating, the king of basetheft made just that bit better in anticipation for the pressure cooker of Ego. In this world, the Unlimited Lovers are cursed by the Mic. One kid was in the wrong place at the wrong time, holding the wrong ball, and ripped the sky over San Francisco into shreds. And now the only thing left to show for it is Wyatts, Masons, and some of them who are neither one nor the other.

Summary
Sutton is up past her bedtime, and the world feels full of possibilities and happiness. Like if she reached out and grabbed the light from the pavement and the song from the air, she could become them, and they could become her, and together they’d be beautiful.
Sutton presses her tiny hands against the cool glass of her window and breathes in deep, and she thinks to herself: I always want to feel like this.
And the city replies, What sweet dreams you have.
The neon lights flicker. Sutton flickers back.
(An alternate reality, where Sutton Dreamy is on the New York Millennials. Written for the Blaseball Zine Jam's "Salmon and Snakes.")

New York City is full of people with dreams. Some of them manage to find their way to making it reality; plenty of others don’t. But the dreams themselves stick around, on street corners and between the cushions of taxi cabs. Wherever they were left behind and whenever they were lost, they eventually find their way to Sutton.
Every wish and hope and desperate last attempt clings to her like dandelion seeds. She sees it in the faces of everyone she walks past: this one came here to be a Broadway star, this one to earn enough money to bring a family. This one wanted to be an architect, this one a painter.
Sutton gets used to the changes. She shifts through neon lights and elaborate costumes, denim overalls and pressed suits. Her hair is suspension cables, or fishing nets, or elaborate opera wigs. She is whatever the people want her to be, and they are happy to give her more to work with.
You have such sweet dreams, she says, to the bodega owner on her street and to the pianist who lives above her. You have such sweet dreams, all of you.
THE CITY THAT NEVER SLEEPS AND THE GIRL OF ITS DREAMS. IM SO NORMAL ABOUT THIS FIC (LYING). CANT BELIEVE IM FEELING SO MANY MILLS EMOTIONS ABOUT A PLAYER WHO WAS NEVER TECHNICALLY ON THE MILLS

You wake up in Seattle. This is the first thing that's wrong.
Gone is every blessing-curse you’d finally accepted as part of you. No tentacles to show your team’s love and the Monitor’s favour. No fourth-dimensional hands to dig yourself out of this mess. Nothing but half-hazy memories, which turns out to be more than what most players have.

Enid, young and bright and just learning about science experiments, only watered half the garden to see what would happen to the other half. She watched the petals dry up, used colored pencils to try and capture the exact shade of every leaf as they slowly withered.
Eventually she stopped watering the rest of the flowers and watched them all die, watched the bugs arrive, watched the flowers become dirt. She told her papa about all the decay and he flinched, then settled, then helped her pick out new flowers and a new notebook and some better colored pencils.
