    Summary

    Growing up as she was had often made Reba frustrated, sometimes angry, but she’d come out of it all clean, more or less, and assured of her own strength.

    Whatever D went through had left him in pieces.

    Summary

    The woman at the school’s reception desk flat out refused to give them anything about Miss Beard, her hands laid on the countertop as she shook her head sadly. Big, plump bottom lip jutting out in what Benson might have known to be real sympathy if he had ever been presented with the emotion in a sincere way. Which he hadn’t. At least, that’s what he imagined, anyway. When she had removed her palms from the counter, the ledger beneath them had become stuck to one, slick with a nervous sweat that she hid all too well in the calm, collected way she had informed the boy she simply couldn’t give that sort of information away.

    The page was left greasy and she pointedly did not look at it.

    “And Mr. Bradley, I really think you’re doing the right thing. Good for you.” She had said, like she was his fucking grandmother.

    ---

    They don't make it to Miss Beard's place. Mr Sheppard lies in a pool of his own blood and Benson & Randy drive on, and on, and on, and on, and on.

    Summary

    Randy almost doesn’t understand how it happened, even though he’s the one who started it. Three weeks ago he’d never had sex with anyone, had never thought about doing it with a guy, didn’t think much about doing it at all. And maybe that means there’s something wrong with him, but he’s not stupid—he understands that Benson is into him. And if Randy can use that to keep him calm, keep them on track for a little while, maybe Benson will come back to himself. Will shake off the shock, and tell Randy what the plan is.

    Summary

    It’s been almost twenty years since Benson Roche was sentenced to carry out four life sentences at G.H. Lemoine Correctional. Twenty-one since he had murdered his and Randy’s coworkers on a cool and bland January morning, since he had beaten Elliot Sheppard to death in the middle of Bill Snyder Elementary’s parking lot, had taken Miss Beard hostage only at Randy’s insistence he not kill her, had shot Marsha at the end of her shift at the Kutzburg Diner. Twenty-one years since he had forced Randy to drive around town with him for hours, laughing at him, maybe believing it was with him—driving around and never once trying to leave town, intent only on curing Randy of all that made him the most pathetic 21-year-old he had ever seen. Twenty-one years since he gave Randy the small white divot scars on either side of his shoulder that still twinge now and again in a flutter of permanently-confused nerves.

    Twenty-one years since he became Randy’s captor. Twenty-one years since he became Randy’s only friend in the world, if only for a day. Since he had created the clean and even division of years in Randy’s life — Before Benson and anno Domini nostri Benson Roche.

    In seven months, he'll be eligible for parole.

    Summary

    For the sake of his little wife, Erik intends to give her the married life he promised, along with all of the sundry that comes with it: a sun-lit house above the ground. A devoted and gentle husband. Damp, dark soil, filled with all manner of things rich and thriving.

    Unfortunately for him, Christine cannot forget the past so easily. And rot will always find its way into even the happiest of homes.

    Summary

    It is the winter of 1852 and Erik is beginning to unravel.
    Or: How Nadir saves Erik from himself.

    (Very) loosely based on Kay's book; Erik was rescued by Professor Guizot when the fair he in which he was imprisoned passed through Paris. He bought him his freedom, both from the fair and from his mother, and brought him up, educating him as they travelled around Europe.

    But the effects of being abused as a child and then displayed as a freak are long-lasting.
    ----
    If Erik was a mixture of Raskolnikov and Sebastian Flyte.

    Am I so much a monster? There are things I cannot change about myself—dark histories which fester in my rotted soul, truths I would like to forget, crimes from which I dream of absolution.
