    Summary

    Evie and Gale seem to have failed in their mission to get along. If they’re not ignoring each other, they’re arguing. The journey to Baldur’s Gate has made them uneasy allies but hardly good friends.

    Then a mysterious portal opens up in the Elfsong Tavern. Gale is pulled through and a different Gale emerges in his place.

    Evie isn’t surprised to hear that this new Gale has been experimenting with a teleportation spell, one that he mangled so horribly it sent him to a parallel universe. However, she’s very surprised to hear that in this Gale’s home world, he and Evie are very close.

    In fact - they’re in love.

    Summary

    “Mel.” Frank sounds tense and serious. She doesn’t like when he’s tense and serious, especially not when she thinks that it might be because of her - why else would he not reply to her picture? “What are we doing?”

    “We’re - we’re trading pictures, Frank, like we said we would -”

    “Yeah, I know, but… are you seriously gonna tell me that you’re not sending ones where you look hot on purpose?”

    The air leaves her lungs in a large, violent breath. She feels like she’s been caught with her hand in the cookie jar. Or like she’s been caught leaving secret, encoded messages on a post-it note inside the lid of the cookie jar without telling anyone the post-it note or even the cookie jar itself is there. She wanted to take cute pictures to send to him this week in the hopes that he would like them, but she didn’t know that he noticed how hard she was working for it, didn’t realize that he realized - oh, God, is her new push-up bra that obvious?

    “I’m not - I didn’t - um -”

    “Are you alone right now?”

    “Yeah, I’m alone.”

    Frank sighs on the other end of the line, and she waits patiently for it all to come crashing down.

    “What are you wearing?”

    Summary

    The car pooling, she thought, represented this blurring of boundaries: not quite work but not quite personal life, either. If somebody asked her if she ever saw Langdon outside of the hospital, what should she say?

    Mel and Langdon car pool to work.
