Summary
The gas revved. Her hands shook on the wheel. She couldn't look forward without seeing Sarah's face, the hope in her eyes, the way she'd looked with her skull bashed in, the blood and gore of the brick, her hand doing it—
Fuck. She wanted to puke.
If this worked, Nikki still might kill herself.
An exploration of how Nikki might be able to move on with her life, and what it might take to do so.

Summary
After the gathering with friends at Ian's house, Bear finally realizes the truth: Nikki is spiraling, people are in danger, and he is no longer dealing with love, but obsession corrupted by something far darker. Forced to confront the consequences of his selfish wish, Bear seeks help and attempts the one thing he could never fully do in the original film: let Nikki go before the damage becomes irreversible.
But will it be too late?
An alternate psychological continuation of Obsession exploring obsession, accountability, dependency, and whether redemption was still possible before Sarah’s death.

Summary
Sarah always hated green beans.
Even when all of her food was pulverized baby mush, her little nose would wrinkle the moment the tip of the spoon made it into her mouth, and she would throw her pudgy hands into the air and baby-shrill at him for the audacity of the attempt. When he tried to trick her into eating them with some idea of expanding her palate by slipping in a bit between spoonfuls of yogurt, he’d spent a week having to pry tiny fingers off of spoons when she insisted on checking each bite for further betrayal.
More than one supper had ended with a plastic cartoon character plate flung across the kitchen, green bean shrapnel spread across the floor. He’d usually made her go to bed early those nights, whether she ate anything else or not. It had felt like the right thing at the time, a life lesson about hard choices and consequences.
How he regrets those nights now.
(Sarah and Ellie both hate green beans) (Joel's approach to both is different)

Summary
Dustin sucks in a sharp breath, claps his hands together in his lap, and says as straightforwardly as possible, “I’m going back in time.”
Steve doesn’t say anything. His mouth opens and closes like a goldfish. Then, he says, “What, like, right now?”
Dustin wakes up in Max’s trailer the day of Eddie’s death. Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence, but three times? Three times is a pattern.
Or: Dustin Henderson is unstuck in time.
