Summary
There is a world in which people's souls are made manifest, taking the form of a creature who walks the world beside them—these creatures are called dæmon.
Imogen has lived half her life with a dæmon that shows the world her soul is a wild and frightening thing and ever since she started seeing the strange-true images in other’s heads, she’s been thinking they might be right. Laudna’s cursed or evil, if rumours are to be believed. Her dæmon is unsettled, and as unsettling as she is. Maybe he always will be. But maybe the way souls appear is not how they are, Imogen thinks, because she’s never met anyone better than that strange pair.
A chance encounter at the start of the school year takes them across the country and years as they figure out who they are, to themselves and to one another.

Summary
In venturing into the world with Imogen, Laudna had flourished. She was a natural when she was appreciated properly. She’d made friends for them in a way Imogen never would have by herself, had found a group of weirdos who were better off together. She had rejoined the world and made it better with her presence.
Their life together had very quickly progressed from friends to best friends/platonic soulmates. Although she struggled relentlessly with the platonic part.
Imogen was desperately, achingly in love with her. She had fallen from that very first smile and had concussed herself on every single branch on the way down. And the only person who didn’t know about it was Laudna.

In which Imogen and Laudna get their cottage, and it’s a house in the Windowed Wall, a found family who love them, and a repurposed cast of characters. Or: Imogen loves Laudna, a Modern AU.

Summary
“And just, you know—I don’t think—I haven’t accessed that part of my brain in like fifty years, so.”
“It would be strange, I know, to access that,” Imogen says softly.
-
Five times Laudna didn’t access that part of her brain, and one time she did.

Summary
GOOD, echoes her Lady’s voice in the unfurnished home of her head, and so it must be good – all of it, the confusing tapestry coming into bleary focus before her – the Nightsong, skewered at the end of her spear – the blood dripping from her hands, still warm – it must be – it must be –
IT IS, Shar says. YOU’VE DONE WELL, CHILD. GAZE UPON YOUR SPOILS.
