    Summary

    Wei Ying licks his suddenly dry lips, and continues. “It’s all petty drama, really, and you’ll probably think it’s stupid, hah...” He scratches his head, feeling extremely self-conscious.

    “It must have meant a lot to you,” says Lan Zhan, firmly. “And to the people who followed you.”

    The people who followed him? More like that single person. His chest fills with warmth as he thinks abruptly of bunny130809 and his bunny icon and his earnest, awkward, achingly sweet words.

    “Well, anyway,” Wei Ying says, eager to move on from the subject. It’s making him dizzy, the way Lan Zhan’s voice keeps bleeding into his old follower’s typed words. He’s probably just projecting, and that must say something about him, right? Had there been only two persons in all this time who’d been patient enough to really listen to him, for them to mesh together so seamlessly in his head?

    Summary

    Alice leaned back into the chair, arms crossed, expression mulishly guilty.

    Now this felt familiar, too -- how many times had someone come to him, needing help to fix the world? Penny tried not to laugh, managed to keep it down to a vaguely mocking smile. But inside he felt like Alice’s voice: rough, jagged, a scream building momentum, eager to slip free. “And you need my help to handle it?” he asked. “Let me guess -- Coldwater’s at the heart of it somehow.”

    Alice’s eyes gleamed behind her glasses. “He will be, so long as we don’t fuck everything up along the way.”

    Screw being dead, that's so last season.

    Summary

    Everett's sea of magic contained power of all kinds, and when he died, so did he. This included a not-insignificant amount of time magic.

    And Quentin? Traces of the timeshare spell still lingered on him, and it was, after all, his spell that set off the blast.

    (And what is mending anyway, but a kind of physical magic with hints of time magic and healing to it?)

    The surges aren't the only side effect of the blast that accidentally returned magic to the world, and the already-unstable Timeline 40 splits along a fault line, leaving ripple effects in both the realities it creates. The only way to mend things is to work together.

    Meanwhile, the timeshare spell itself created Timeline 41, where it is 2016 and Brakebills first-year Quentin Coldwater has strange dreams...

    Timeline 41 now has a spinoff series listing!
