    Summary

    As most of the family had eventually gravitated back home to Los Angeles, the tale of the Tucker-Pritchetts had only snippets of Alex's journey to Switzerland and back to the States as she endeavored to answer her mother's question, which really was a question she never was able to fully answer herself: what does Alex Dunphy want?

    Takes place during If We Stay as if the finale was in 2021 and the Tucker-Pritchetts decided to stay in LA instead of moving. Reading the series is not necessary unless you want mainly Tucker-Pritchetts, Alex's story will reference the important bits.

    Summary

    This is a reworking of my largest story to date, namely "Above and Beyond the Horizon." After several years on this platform, I have learned a lot, and I wanted to make that story easier to read. While I think that the bones of it were good, it needed a ruthless edit (and to have the tags and continuity fixed!). If you have read the original story, and would like to give feedback, I would be happy to hear from you. If you have not read that story, I think you should stick to this one, as it's about half the size!

    In short, Mr. Darcy is rude to Charlotte instead of Elizabeth at the Netherfield ball. What he doesn't realise is that these two friends have had a falling out, and that Lizzie's reaction to his words make things a lot worse rather than better. Over the course of the story, it becomes clear that some long-overdue changes need to happen...and that some of our characters rise to the challenge of those changes much better than others do.

    Summary

    Brother. Godfather. King of Friendship. P4L.

    She thinks of the words on the plaque, recites them over and over in her head, until she pinpoints exactly why they bother her. They describe JJ perfectly, of that there is no doubt. He was the best brother to the Pogues, especially John B and Pope. John B did ask him to be Josie’s godfather, and he would have been amazing and taken his role very seriously. He absolutely was the King of Friendship, bound by love and loyalty, both running deep. A martyr, devoted beyond what anyone ever asked, until there was nothing left of him.

    All these things are true. The words themselves are accurate.

    But where were the words for her? Where were the words that told the world of his love for her?

    -
    Kiara is back, but that doesn’t mean she is whole. The others don’t know the full weight of what she left behind, or what she carried back with her. Pope and Cleo are trying to move forward, John B and Sarah are building a life for their daughter, but grief still clings to them all, a ghost in every room.

    Summary

    Ever since she could remember, Jean had needed to feel tethered to the ground. It was why she adored her basement office, despite Charles’ frequent sneezing as the dust aggravated his allergies. Sometimes she would take off her shoes and feel bedrock beneath her feet, the gentle claustrophobia of brick walls and ceiling above embracing her when the world felt too cruel. The whole of London could see her from her neglected desk in the typing pool; here, hidden beneath the ground, she was safe.

    In a second-floor Shoreditch apartment, she was not. The tiny room was just about big enough to squeeze in a twin bed, the rest of the space taken up by a sense of intruding where she didn’t belong.

    [or, when Jean finds herself out on her own, the secret is kept until it's almost too late]

    Summary

    “Bleeding.” Claire brings her chubby little hand up to point at his forehead.

    Henry touches his cold fingers to his forehead, realizing the bandage he’d placed over his eyebrow has been bled through. He thinks he’s got more in the center console. He hopes.

    “Daddy’s alright,” he assures her, finally snapping the buckle together over her puffy pink coat. He gives her the best smile he can muster. “Ready to go for a drive?”

    Claire nods at him, big blue eyes inquisitive as he palms her hair, thumb brushing blonde locks off her forehead. “Where’s we goin’?”

    “Somewhere better,” he says, and closes the back door tight.

    Summary

    I went back to where
    I thought I was meant to be
    But now it’s easy enough
    For even someone blind to see

    My home was there,
    And I’ve left it behind,
    I’m stuck in the future
    And they’re in my own time.

    I wish that you’d held me
    And begged me to stay
    But I chose to come here
    It’s my fault, anyways…

    I know that leaving some people
    Might seem really mere,
    But what am I to do…
    Without you here...?
