Summary
Leap Emery is a Tuatha noble heir and knowe architect from Boston... or at least, she thought she was Tuatha, until the day a teleporter across the continent damaged the Faerie roads and deposited her in the Mists.
All Leap knew about her biological parents was that they had named her "February". But with the nature of her powers unclear, and a certain bloodworking detective increasingly involved, her lost family is suddenly more relevant than she had ever expected...

Summary
“There’s fennel for you, and columbines; There's rue for you, and here's some for me … You must wear your rue with a difference.”
Fourteen years ago, Junie Daye lost her mother, October "Toby" Daye, to the machinations of Simon Torquill and her life was turned upside down. Unbeknownst to her, Toby had been turned into a fish in the koi pond of Golden Gate Park the whole time, slowly burning away the spell Simon had placed on her with the dawn. Toby lost almost everything when the spell finally broke, leading to her deciding to leave Faerie and all but Junie behind.
Junie thought everything was finally going to be okay when she got her mom back, but leaving Faerie behind was a decision she hadn't been prepared for her mom to make. Though she goes along with it, it's harder for her than her mom since she still had active ties to not just Faerie as a whole but specifically to the Duchy of Shadowed Hills. Give it time, she keeps telling herself, she just needs time to readjust and then she'll change her mind.
Six months later, Junie is still clinging to the idea that she just needs to give her mom time. And then Evening Winterose is murdered and they're pulled back in whether Toby is ready or not.

Summary
Trans Gillian, liminality and in-between spaces, and navigating them and her relationships with others in life, family and new faces alike.
She doesn't quite start talking to Toby earlier, but I think she's less angry at Toby... to an extent. There is honestly more I want to unpack, but I didn't think I could make the exchange deadline if I went after them. Maybe I'll write more later.
I hope you like it, ink!
Her body has never been this her own, even in dreams. It's never been more alien. Her fingers are webbed, but other parts of her body are – what she wished she could have been born with. It's a contradiction, it's perfect, it's foreign. She takes her webbed fingers and runs them down her dream body.
