    Summary

    "So, Miranda, I want to know everything! Let's start with this; what do you think about Paris Fashion Week this year?"

    Miranda swallowed hard.

    The question itself wasn't out of place, in fact it was one that she knew would be asked often in upcoming interviews. Still, chocolate doe-eyes appeared in her mind for a split second, and a sharp twinge in her heart quickened her heart rate. The knowledge that she would never see them again weighed heavily on her, but she did her best to push those thoughts to the back of her mind. The last thing she needed now was another nervous breakdown and a wave of tears.

    "It couldn't have gone any better."

    Summary

    Re-post from LJ.

    Crossover with Pan's Labyrinth.

    A gothic fairy tale: this story is in the tradition of Pan’s Labyrinth although it lifts the fairytale out and sends it around on another cycle as Moanna is reborn not only as Ofelia, but also Analisa and later Andrea (DWP). In this fairytale, the princess has left the Underground Realm more than once and gone through a series of challenges to prove herself worthy of return. The faun and the lover are the only ones left to look for the lost princess as the portals have slowly closed over time and the King and citizens mourn their loss. Will the cycle be completed this time? Will the lover and the princess be reunited? Will the faun successfully help the princess to overcome the darkness that threatens them all? Moanna and Ofelia were young when they left the Underground Realm and failed to return home. As an older incarnation, Analisa appeared in a later life also trying to return home under the guidance of the faun and help of the lover. Now Andrea has grown into a young woman fresh from college but is she ready to prove herself at Runway? Is her essence intact? Can she return to the Underground Realm?

    Summary

    Had she been watching Andrea closely, she would have noticed the young woman’s breath hitch. Or the lightest bit of pink that suddenly colored her cheeks. Or the way the tips of her fingers shook just a little where she held the hot coffee in her hand.

    But no, Miranda wasn’t studying Andrea closely enough to notice any of those things.

    No. Not at all.

    -x-x-x-

    Two years after Andrea Sachs left without so much as a "goodbye", Miranda finds herself unexpectedly face-to-face with the one who got away.
