   Summary

   A year has passed since Lucy and Cooper parted ways.

   Lucy wasn’t looking for the Ghoul, but when she found him drinking himself to death in a bar, she couldn’t just leave.

   They are both broken in their own ways, and “dealing with trauma in a healthy way” is just a poster slogan for them.
