Summary
At first, Iris thinks the most disorienting thing is the water. And then it’s whatever those… things… those people… are. Hollow shells of life, unfinished. Forgotten. It’s already a lot to wrap his head around by the time Iris discovers that Walters and the rest of the valley residents are actively worried about his wellbeing. But Lillium…
Lillium is the final straw.
In which Iris finds himself in the wrong version of his story and tries to make his way back home.

Summary
“C’mere, dummy-“
His body sags against the side of Lillium’s, tucked between his side and his arm.
Lillium was going to have to pay him to return his shoulder, because it was Iris’ pillow now, fully equipped with the rhythms of Lillium’s heartbeat and the gentle rise and fall of his chest.
It would have been a feat to have forgotten the nightmare that had gotten him here, but it had faded into the back of his consciousness. It was replaced instead by a reassurance—living breathing proof that he was cared for and that his powers weren’t an omen. That Iris wasn’t predestined to tragedy.
Wrapping his arm around Lillium’s torso, Iris falls into a dreamless sleep.

Or where our trauma ridden boys have nightmares, but are there to help each other through the worst of it.

Summary
"Do you think this is the end of the world?"
The question came out of nowhere, breaking the silence the two had been in since they climbed into Wilbur's car. Tommy's voice was soft, no brashness, no laughter hiding behind his words. He was tired. Wilbur was too.
"It might be," Wilbur admitted, voice just as soft. "Certainly seems biblical enough."
There have always been a few constants in Wilbur Soot's life. The fact that his father can't make bacon without burning it, the squeaky floorboard right outside his bedroom door that he's never been able to keep from stepping on, and the ever watchful Eye.
The Eye has sat in the sky for as long as Wilbur can remember. No one else can see the Eye, so he learned to stop talking about it long ago. He didn't need everyone in town thinking he was crazy for seeing a giant Eye in the sky.
Until one day, a teenager with a loud mouth moves to town. And with the way he keeps looking up at the sky, Wilbur starts to wonder if maybe, just maybe, he can see it too.

Summary
Tommy sucked in a shaky breath, his eyes unfocused as he stared at the table. “I- I think I get it now,” he said, his voice small. “That’s why you left. Because of me.”
“Tommy, that’s not-”
Before Wilbur could continue, there was a flash of movement outside the window behind Tommy’s head, and he froze. The corn was rustling again. Despite the sun sitting high in the sky, the shadows that twisted between the corn were rustling in that jarring way Wilbur knew wasn’t natural.
Mouth snapping shut, Wilbur got to his feet and made his way over to the window. His vision began to spin again as he made out the faint outline of a man standing between the golden stalks. A man so familiar to him, he could practically feel the phantom hands around his throat once again.
or, Wilbur has come back home after eight years. As he tries to pick up the pieces of his relationship with his family, his past comes back to haunt him.
