Work Text:
There's a tree in the woods between the Archipearlago and Dawn, just on the other side of the mountains.
Once, Pearl ran from a confrontation with a man who was not her soulmate and slept within the branches of that tree, uncomfortably posed, avoiding a searching Scott.
Now, she watches Katherine tend to a beehive in that forest, and she leans against that tree, and she marvels. How she thought back then that she'd never find love, not really; how she hadn't even known the kind of love she wanted, and how she's become so much more loved since then.
