    Summary

    “Hey, hey,” Luz said softly, “it’s okay Amity. Are you having trouble talking right now? Sometimes I have trouble talking too,” she explained. “It’s okay to not talk. Here–do you wanna borrow the paper I use for glyphs?”

    Amity, still shaking, uncurled herself enough to grab the pen and paper. She couldn’t look at Luz, not directly–she looked at Luz’s arms, at her chest, examined her multi-colored leggings and sleeves, looked for stray hairs on her head, anywhere but her eyes.

    Luz tried to prompt Amity to use the pen and paper she’d handed off. “You can just write down what you need to say, okay? I can wait as long as you need.”

    Amity placed the paper in front of her, then. No one had ever given her the chance to communicate without having to talk before. She played with the pen for a moment, trying to think of what to “say,” anything at all. And then, a quick scribble later, she had a note to pass off to the girl in front of her.

    How did you know I can’t talk?

    Summary

    She had found Dave through facebook, just before Christmas break of her freshman year.

    Two years and three months since Connor died, and she was still trying to figure him out. She had started seeing a therapist at school, trying to deal with all of the adjusting she was trying to do, and the therapist said that maybe reaching out to people close to her brother might help Zoe find closure.

    Zoe didn’t want closure.

    She wanted some goddamn answers.

    The problem was…

    Connor didn’t have any friends.

    Summary

    "Okay, Jaykit, I believe in you." Leafpool stretched forwards and licked the top of his head. "I know you can do it. I just..." she sighed. "It will be hard. You will face obstacles in every direction if you take this path."
    "Because I'm blind?"
    "No, because others will know that you are different, and try to discourage you." Jaykit swallowed at her words, nodding.
    "I know. But nothing will stop me from being a warrior."
    "Oh Jaykit," Leafpool purred. "Someday, you'll wow us all."
