    Summary

    Phantom wasn't supposed to survive the void. They weren't supposed to find the Abbey, or the pack, or something that feels terrifyingly close to home.

    They certainly won't supposed to want.

    But this is a story about what comes after belonging is found. The maintenance of it. The ordinary holiness of choosing to stay, every day, in a body that was never meant to survive. Of learning that wanting doesn't end in annihilation. Of love staying loud in a world that demands silence.

    Wanting has always been Phantom's most dangerous quality.

    The Host cast them out for it once.

    It's about to try again.
