   Summary

   AU. Set in ROTPS, however Kathy is not blown up.

   Upon Elliot’s return to NYC, and Olivia's life, he is forced to confront his biggest demons, face his wife as their marriage falls to pieces, and battle his religious convictions. Kathy watches as everything she's ever known turns to dust in front of her eyes. Olivia fights her feelings for Elliott, battles a decades worth of unresolved trauma, and tries to piece her life back together after it is turned upside down. Together, she and her former partner take on a world of hurt, attempting to reach their parallel universe.

   Please don't worry, all will be right in the end, and our Partners for life will have a happy ending together!
