Summary
He wishes she wasn't brave, like that. In the way that keeps her here, even when she's pretty sure they're all going to die, even when she had plans too big for small Indiana towns. And he's grateful that she is, because it means she's next to him. He should probably tell her, morning of the apocalypse and all that, but they've never been any good at saying these things out loud.
A moment on the rooftop, before the world ends.

Summary
The train pulls into Union Square, and she can almost hear it - a thud, a shudder as the driver pumps the brakes. Bile rises in her throat. Across the aisle, a couple lean into each other lazily. Schoolgirls in crisp blue uniforms stifle laughter. The platform, lit in flickering fluorescents, looks the same as it ever has. She wonders who buried Fox, and under what name, and the thrumming in her ears grows louder.
In which Ajax gets out of jail, goes looking for Swan, and finds someone else.

You are raised by a ruddy-haired father and the sea itself.
For Roddacember Day 1: Character, and Day 2: Place. Of course it had to be Verity, and the Bone Point Light.

Summary
But this time is different, because she is staring at the screen and waiting for the illusion to disappear, and it stays. It is the shift from greyscale to technicolour, silence to deafening sound. It is something that had stilled and deadened fizzling to life in her chest, it is Eve Park crying on the floor of a motel in America’s fourth shittiest state. It is the neat cut between a before and an after. It is everything.
the inevitable Alice Isn't Dead AU

“I thought I might make this clear, since you seem bent on misunderstanding.” Delilah flexes her fingers and steps forward; the tip of her shoe sinks into the puddle of Imogen’s hair. “You are going to lose her.”
-

(or, Imogen gets a turn being the vampire)

Summary
The dagger is heavy in her hand.
She turns it over, inspecting the newly sharp blade, the weight of the hilt.
This dagger has been with her through everything, right at her side when her magic fails. A constant presence, a reminder that she is not completely dependent on the storm, the storm she’s learned to harness and channel as she grows ever more powerful.
“It doesn’t have to be you.”
Orym has been sat with her through most of the silence as she regards her weapon.
“I know,” she replies softly. “But it will be.”
