    Summary

    “No,” Caitlyn whispers, shoulders slipping. Oh, she’s not strong enough for this. “No, no- you- why you? Why you?”

    She still smells the way she did two years ago— standing at their doorstep, packing her bags, saying we shouldn’t have done this. I shouldn’t have done this.

    “Why me,” Vi repeats. “Isn’t that the fucking question.”

    or: they're exes, they're still in love, and they're pretty sure fate just fucking hates them

    Summary

    Enid could not, for the life of her, look away.

    Bianca spoke. It didn’t matter. Enid couldn’t bring herself to hear a thing. Everything other than Wednesday Addams was irrelevant, it dissipated into the void, ceasing to exist.

     

    [ Or, in Paris 1979, Wednesday Addams, now an internationally acclaimed cellist, and Enid Sinclair, now the face of avant-garde fashion, reunite unexpectedly after an unresolved romance and years without contact due to a rupture in letter correspondence. ]

    Summary

    "But you won’t kiss her.

    It might get to be a habit, and you can’t get rid of habits.

    (And where is the line, you think, between habit and addiction? Habit, routine, ritual, addiction: it does not matter ...)”

    Until you do

    Summary

    He sees it now clear as day. Narda looks at Regina like it hurts her to look away. And Regina looks at Narda like it's the one thing that keeps her alive, like it's the one thing that brings her pain.

    Or: what starts out as Regina’s simple ploy to separate Narda and Brian from each other by spending time with Narda herself becomes infinitely more complex when their lives are interwoven into an otherworldly scheme rooted in two dire secrets. And when Regina discovers the meaning of home in Narda’s sunlit smile instead, the warmth they find in each other is one they cannot allow to be lost in tragedy.
