   Summary

   “What would’ve happened if Jack was romantically interested in Ralph?”

   We’ve all (probably) had this question. Whether we dwelled on it or not, we probably wondered what would’ve happened if they acted on it. This is a rewrite of the last few chapters of LoTF. Well, okay, not an entire rewrite, just one with romantic elements. I still want to keep it as true to the OG novel as possible.

   So yes, this is doomed yaoi.

   Buckle up, clutch your pearls and keep your tissues nearby.

   This is gonna be one big deep dive into a book literally written over 70 years ago.

   I had nothing else better to do.

   Enjoy.
