    Summary

    Tormented by her memories of Elgar'nan and shaken by the events of the past few weeks, Neve finds that she can't face sleeping alone after the final battle. Rook is there to support her - if only Neve can work up the courage to ask.

    One year later, Neve returns to Rook’s Minrathous apartment triumphant on the heels of solving a difficult case. They share a special evening together, but much is still left unsaid from a year ago. There are things Neve needs to tell Rook, and she struggles for the words. But when Rook finally breaks down from regret, she finds them.

    ***
    Or: What happens after a certain devastating choice toward the end of the Neve/Rook romance? How does it affect their perspectives and their relationship? Trying to imagine my way to a “Pillow Talk” scene that makes sense after what they’ve both suffered.
