Summary
“Even if we make it through all of that—even if we get fucking married—that number only goes up to fifty. Think about that, man. All that time and effort, and it’s a coin flip whether we end up like your parents.”
“Divorced?” Chris sputters. “Josh, we’ve been together less than two months!”
--
It’s Josh’s first official dinner with Chris’s parents, and he can’t help but imagine the worst.

Summary
“I know I said sorry at the time, but it was obviously way too soon. Now that it’s been a little while, I wanted to…try again, you know? Apologize for real.”
Ashley risks a glance up, timidly gauging Emily’s reaction.

Summary
As the track clicks into its new position, their captor speaks. “Ah,” he says, as though he’s a waiter and Chris has ordered an especially good dish. “I see. You have chosen to save…” He pauses. Flowers could bloom and die and bloom again, in the length of that silence. “Ashley.”
The saw swerves to the right, and Ashley exhales in a rush. Josh is stunned silent. It lasts only a second before he’s screaming again. His fear bleeds into Ashley, and she screams, too.
Chris joins their horrifying harmony, shouting protests as he throws his weight against the door that separates them. Amongst all of it—dull thuds and piercing cries and screeching machinery—Ashley hears a single word, clear as crystal.
Mistake.
--
Ashley Brown is nobody's second choice.

Summary
“How’d you get us onto this super exclusive waitlist then—money or a blowjob?” Jess teased.
“Did you see the sommelier? Never insinuate that I’d do anything even remotely sexual with someone that can’t confidently tell me what they’ve got stocked in their winecellar. It gave me the ick.”

Summary
Regina’s fingers curl around the fluttering heart, still buried deep within the woman in front of her. She hesitates at the steady ba-bump ba-bump ba-bump rhythm it carries out. Unchanging even when Regina flexes. Her eyes lock with this new, incomprehensible foe: a bizarre creature who dares meet Regina’s gaze with steely determination even in the face of imminent death.
“Okay,” the woman says. Soft, but resolute. She staggers forward into Regina, features pained but open in something like tenderness.
And when their foreheads fall together, Regina marvels at the realization that for the first time in her life, she’s holding a heart devoid of fear.
“Maybe it’s time for a new tactic, huh?”
--
The Evil Queen awakens one evening to find her castle under siege. She takes to the battlefield, intent on putting an end to Snow White’s rebellion at last.
Regina dies. Then she wakes up to fight her war all over again, and the cycle continues.
Until one night, a strange woman meets her on the battlefield.

Summary
“How much do you want the part, McKinley?”
The whole situation had come from an unexpected place, leaving Chris unprepared for the change of pace. An afternoon catching up with assignments was all he'd had in mind, but thoughts of deadlines and term papers were quickly falling by the wayside. He didn't know what exactly had set Josh off - the joking around, the camera still unwaveringly trained on him, or simply that they were alone and the opportunity was there - but whatever made Josh look at him like that and brought this mood to the surface, whatever was prompting Josh's fingers to slowly tease his fly open, click by click… Well, that was just fine.
