Summary
“There are no open positions as far as I am aware, since most of them already had candidates waiting for them. However, I do have a rather odd opportunity for you, if you'd be willing to take it.”
Scully nodded and waited for the man to continue.
“There is an anthropology student giving me a headache lately. He is doing research on how magic works in patient treatment, and somehow he has gotten the ethics committee to allow him to search through patient files. His advisor had contacted me to have someone knowledgeable in medicine to help him.”

Summary
Now that Ellie’s alone, she just sits on her bed and looks at her book. She can’t call it reading anymore – by now she has read the thing front to back so many times that she could quote some paragraphs word for word.
That’s why it’s weird that it took her so long to notice the message written on the front page.
There, nestled just below the title, there’s one line of writing addressed to her. It doesn’t mention any names, but it is for her. It can’t be otherwise.
It’s not Tommy’s handwriting, nor Maria's, nor Riley's.But it’s somebody’s. Somebody who knew she’d like to read about Moon landing, spaceships, and astronauts. Somebody who cared enough to take this book, fix the hardcover with some scotch tape, and give it to her. Somebody who wrote those words on the front page knowing that they would make her smile.
Somebody who loved her.
It’s late spring 2024 when Ellie wakes up in Jackson. She has a backpack full of books, a burn on her arm, and no memory of how she went from Boston QZ to Wyoming.
