Summary
The closest sensation Louise could compare it to was the feeling of being on a really fast roller coaster, right after the first big drop—the higher, the better—when your stomach does somersaults and fills up with air. Your whole body seems to fill up with air, making you all lightheaded, and you only want to laugh or scream. Or both.
But chasing down some brat with smelly shampoo and breaking her best friend’s heart and immediately trying to mend it again (not even understanding why kissing him of all things was part of her approach but stumbling into it all the same)? None of that was anything like a good, rickety old ride at the Wonder Wharf—something that lacks the regular maintenance to make it just actually dangerous enough for the sense of thrill to be real.
Why did kissing Rudy make her feel like that? And why did she kiss him in the first place?
Snapshots of Louise and Rudy's friendship over the years, starting with that fateful Valentine's Day when she realizes she may or may not have a regular-sized crush on her regular-sized best friend.

Summary
Stepping over the snow-covered stones lining the spring, she sighs immediately upon contact with the hot water. Her feet, aching from travel, lead her deeper into the inviting warmth, allowing it to spread up her body as she sinks in, exhaling through a hazy grin.
“You should do yourself a favor and come try it!” Aloy hollers at Erend, her eyes trailing down his backside.
She barely manages to keep herself from biting her lip at the sight. And he was still clothed.

Summary
"The girl can take down a Tremortusk in minutes but she can't pour a beer to save her life.”
Aloy leaned back to look up at him skeptically. “Okay, in what instance would pouring a beer save my life?”
“I don't know,” Erend admitted, laughing, “but if it happens, you better hope I'm there with you.”

Summary
Aloy’s peering at him over the rim of her mug, watching him stumble silently through his own thoughts. It’s almost as though she can sense his walls trying to come back up, and she’s waiting to see how much of him will still be visible once the work is done.

Summary
It was a familiar dance for them, a different sense of personal space that they had, at some point, tacitly agreed on – always standing too close, or choosing the seat next to each other, hands brushing or touching, shoulders bumping.
The familiarity of it was comforting, but there was also a new edge to it. For her, at least. She knew better now what could come next.
__________James and Erin keep growing and growing up together. Set in the summer of 1999 after the gang's first year at university.
This fic stands completely on its own from Part 1 of the series.
