Summary
Surrounded by mounds of cloth, Evgenia sorts through outfit after outfit before pulling out one that gives her pause. She doesn't immediately recognise it. Purple and black, with a high collar and bow. Black tights to match.
"Make a wish."
Evgenia looks over her shoulder, startled by the unexpected voice. She is the only person home at the moment. The room is empty. "One day, you'll also be my enemy. It's fine… I'll keep wishing for… can be happy."
Evgenia turns back and finds herself face-to-face with the Khrustalny lockers. Instead of the strange costume, Luna is in her hands, along with the familiar jacket of the Russian national team.
Or, twenty-six-year-old Evgenia Medvedeva wakes up in 2018. What could possibly go wrong?

Summary
Kara stares at the National City skyline, eyes blank. Her mind is somewhere far away. The Phantom Zone, maybe.
"I said that last time, didn't I?"
"You say that every time." Kara chokes out, throat tight with desperate grief. "Let's just stop talking for a little bit. I will break the loop, I promise. Just…"
"Okay, we don't have to deal with it now." Lena says, "Just rest a while. You can save us all tomorrow."

Summary
Being with Byulyi is easy in its familiarity. They work together, commute home, and eat the leftovers from Yongsun's fridge. It's easy to fall into another meaningless argument, and just as easy to lapse into silence once the bickering has run its course. What's harder is meeting Byulyi's eyes once there is nothing to pad out the silence.
Byulyi is off limits. Not a possibility. Yongsun almost tried, once, but she pre-emptively shut things down before either of them could cross the line. But maybe now that their glory days were passed... who would care if a couple of washed-up third gen idols moved in together? Adopted a cat? These days, it felt like most people already knew. Or suspected, at least. They could-

Summary
Two minutes until they go live. Jeremy watches her with tired, hopeful eyes and she hates it. She loves him and she hates what he's about to do.
This moment of indecision feels impossibly charged, like a die is being tossed up in the air and reality is shattering in six. She knows that they have been here before. A hundred, a thousand times. Jeremy, staring down the barrel of his own destruction. Jenny, trying desperately to talk him down.
In every timeline, every universe, he does not stop. Jenny comes to a decision in an instant, and the timeline settles around them in their one-sixth of the lot.
"I'm with you. What do you need?"
Or, more vignettes of the broadcast trio in every timeline

Summary
The echoes were a little intimidating and incredibly powerful; but IV had them figured out. Deep down, he knew they cared. Quieter and more reserved in their affection, sure, but just as sweet. They were indispensable now, in this little fucked-up family they'd made. So if they needed help, he'd be there - come hell or high water.

Summary
"Guys, come look! I found Anne and Jane!" Kat's exclamation breaks the eerie silence of the gallery. The six of them congregate around the sketches, which are hung side by side.
The Anne of yesteryear is dressed impeccably. Her collar was high and her hood neatly covered her ears, as was the style of the time. The monarch's expression was distant and blank.
It was a far cry from the Anne of now, jacket wrinkled and thrown over her shoulders. "Holbein totally got my eyes wrong."
"Yeah you didn't look anything like that." Kat says. "You were way uglier."
"Hey!"

Summary
Lily folds in on herself, quick to deflect and quick to laugh. "Look, whether you come back or not, it's your choice. But you've got something special, Nina. It'd be a shame if you never danced again."
Nina exhales. It's shaky, but there. Lily's pretty, pretty mouth immediately widens in a smile. Not her usual knowing smirk but something softer, almost innocent.
"Just think about it, okay?"
"Okay." Nina agrees, easy as that. As if anything could happen, if only Lily asked for it.

Summary
Queen Susan of Narnia is half a world away when the letter arrives.
An outlandish tale of mice and dragons, a sea of lilies at the end of the world. She believes it, because Aslan's betrayal hasn't sunk its fangs into her yet. She is still too small to comprehend how He licked her bones clean and discarded them with the rest.

Summary
"I think you might be it for me," Jenny whispers. "I know we've only been dating a few weeks, and it's too early to start thinking like that. But I've looked everywhere else, I tried all the others."
"And I always come back to you."
Jeremy can't find the words. They’re not enough, anyway, to convey the warmth in his chest. He pulls her into a hug instead. This may be the epilogue to someone else's story, but to him it feels like everything is only just beginning.
Or, vignettes of the broadcast trio in every epilogue.

Summary
Kate didn't care if Megan was drooled over or propositioned, being one of the most recognisable faces in the country. Because no matter who wanted Megan, be it sports stars or foreign dignitaries, none of them had her.
None of them had her pressed into their sheets, panting and desperate.
