    Bookmarker's Notes

    “Aunt Marnie said that you’re sick.” He heard the door open wider, and then soft footsteps tip-toed into the room, coming to a halt at the side of his bed. Her hand rested on his cheek, blessedly cool. “I brought you Mr. Pickle. He always helps me when I’m sick.”

    Shane cracked open one bleary eye to see the green Junimo plush sitting on the pillow next to him, and this time it was guilt that needled him, roiling his guts. He tried to smile. “What do you know? I feel better already.”

    Summary

    And yet Shadowheart was her name, and she did not belong on another’s body. Her lips twisted into a frown at the insolent thought, the skin against her hip flaring angrily from where she had cut it, hoping the pain would cut through the cloying warmth that still lingered there. To bring her mind back to Shar.

    A soulmate AU.

    Jaheira doesn’t answer immediately. Her lips are drawn tight in an expression of deep concentration as she considers the drink. It’s bitter and hot and her tongue feels burnt, but in the pre-dawn chill, each mouthful sends a comforting swoop of warmth into her chest. “I think I like it,” she pronounces soberly. “Thank you, Lanya.”

    Bookmarker's Notes

    And the rain comes from the sky – which is such a strange word, so sibilant – which can’t be seen right now, in the dark, but which Yrre knows is supposed to be about as blue as blue can get, except sometimes, when it’s orange or purple or black with the white dots of stars. It sounds indecisive. They like it.
