    Summary

    “You need somewhere under the radar, far out of town. Somewhere quiet, and safe, and free that you can go to wait out this whole…” she gestures vaguely “…media circus.”

    Mark nods and looks down to where he is tracing circles on the back of Helena’s hand with his thumb. When he lifts his head again, there's a flicker of decision behind his eyes.

    “I know a place we can go.”

    -

    Helena and Mark take refuge with Fern and Devon while their world falls apart around them.

    Summary

    Only fools travel in winter. Roads heave, cold kills, bandits lurk at empty inns. He knows, he knows - he’s heard it all before. If he doesn’t leave now, he never will. A month on foot feels easier to survive than one spent at home, sandy path covered in snow, the waves crashing onto the rocks more welcoming than his cold, empty bed.

    Devon wants to know why. Asks in every letter, concern dripping like unblotted ink.

    My wife left me,’ he writes, ‘I’m going to ask the Enchantress for a spell to help me forget.’

    Summary

    What he had with Helena was something else entirely. It felt like a dangerous, unknowable ocean, and yet he still wanted to dive in - deeper and deeper. To lose himself in her again and again without ever coming up for air.
    Because she would dive with him.
    And she was the only breath in the depths where he’d drown.

    Summary

    Helly wouldn’t want it any other way. That’s what she tells herself, at least. Because this way, there are no more scary or happy or sad numbers to sort through. No more break room mantras and mysterious goat departments. No more sad melon parties and vending machine tokens. Mark is with her, always. They have a life together, even if it is only in 46-hour increments. They have a bed to sleep and make love in, plenty of food to eat, and a decent supply of entertainment.

    Yeah, this was a good decision.

    Summary

    As soon as Helena pushes the door closed behind them, she’s hit by the gentle weight of Mark's body as he presses her into the adjacent wall, a gasp suspended in the back of her throat as his lips cover hers. She responds without really meaning to, just muscle memory, her head leaning back into his cupped hand as he protects her from knocking against the hard surface. The act of it is so tender that she can’t take it anymore, can’t take this—something she didn’t earn and doesn’t deserve.

    She wedges her hand between them, palm to his chest, and pushes back. The look of hurt that flashes in his eyes is almost enough to pull him back to her.

    “I’m—I’m sorry, Helly. Before the OTC… I should’ve kissed you back then; I wanted to. I—I thought—”

    “I’m Helena Eagan,” she says, the confession tumbling out as an exhale.

    Three times Mark asked Helly to reintegrate, and one time he didn’t

    Mark may have gotten the reintegration surgery, but that doesn't mean Helly wants to. She's more than happy to not have Helena Eagan plaguing her mind.

    Summary

    The man covered in blood is watching her.

    Another gust of icy wind blows across her, burning at her skin and bare feet, halfway out the door. Something makes her stop, where she stands. His head tilts, eyes wary.

    “Well?” She asks. Her breath still comes out in pants, unwilling to stay in this fucking building a second longer. “Are you coming? Or not?”

    Summary

    “It’ll take them less than five minutes for them to get suspicious,” Mark says between gasps, hoisting up Helena’s dress. “I’d say three. Maybe even two.”

    Helena pulls him over to the sink by his collar and she jumps onto the edge, wrapping her legs around his middle. Her long fingers quickly unloop the hook on his belt, grinning as his trousers fall to the floor.

    “We better be quick, then.”

    -

    As the new CEO and First Gentleman of Lumon, Helena and Mark have to schmooze their way through a PR circus. They may as well have some fun while doing it.

    Warmth at her lips, softer than the breath she drew in, the clench of her fingers in damp fabric before she felt the swipe of his thumb over her cheek, the motion she’d relived every night since the tent, brushing the pad of her pinky on the tracks of heat he’d seared beneath her skin.

    Mark thinks about a mirror, a cubicle, about Helly’s smart mouth. The axis of the world, slipped, some time ago, and the depth of some unknown horizontal. Yesterday he had remembered the words: prime meridian, but had not known who or where it was.

    Summary

    Mark runs his thumb up the line of her jaw, and takes a long look at her, in a way that she knows he’s about to say something stupid. “What?” She almost laughs, her voice breathy and quiet.

    “Your boyfriend’s gonna kill me.” He jokes, and god he’s so fucking stupid, her face splits into a grin, then a barely restrained laugh. She leans back in, brushes her lips against his.

    "Better make it count, then, Scout."

    Summary

    Mark Scout wakes up alone in the stairwell. The panic is immediate: all the breath pressed from his lungs, his heart knocking wildly in his chest, something like electricity slithering under his skin. When last he’d been conscious, he had Gemma in his arms, her face pressed to his. Her voice still lingers in his mind: I’m sorry, she keeps repeating, again and again.

    And now she’s gone.

    --

    A week after the events of the S2 finale, Mark Scout attempts to put together the pieces of his life. An added complication? He's still reintegrating, dreaming in Mark S.'s memories, and attempting to ignore the fact that his innie is trying to tell him something.
