    Summary

    The aftermath of 'Turn off the light':

    When people say that you see the light when you meet death, they should really say that when you die you take the light with you. Because Charles was dead, and suddenly everything was dark, and yet some things were made clear. In the darkness, the people left behind realise what it really means when they say to not take anything for granted. They realise their mistakes, their biases, the hurt that they unwittingly conjured - and what really hurts is that they only realised once it was too late. The light had already been turned off and taken away, and there was no power in the world that could turn it on again.

    Summary

    “...that’s not a half-bad idea, Sash,” Anne says tentatively, and she watches as Sasha looks at her almost helplessly. “I’m free that weekend, Marcy– I could be your fake girlfriend.”

    There’s a pause, silence so thick it feels almost suffocating.

    “Oh, you don’t… have to do that,” Marcy flushes, fidgeting with her hands. “I mean, I’m sure I can come up with something, you don’t have to uproot your entire weekend for me–”

    “-it’s never a burden for me, remember what we talked about?” Anne hesitates, and then she spins in her chair so that she’s facing Marcy, reaching out to take her hands in one clean motion. “Think about this, Marce. Nobody will ever question you about your partner again, and besides, how hard can playing your girlfriend really be? You’re already my best friend.”

    ~~

    or: anne plays the role of marcy's fake girlfriend at a convention panel to spite sasha, and has some realizations along the way.

    Summary

    [ “You should make a wish.”

    Sasha looked at her with an unreadable expression. Marcy – for once – didn’t look away.

    She watched Sasha slowly smile, bringing the flower closer to her lips, then pause, a moment’s consideration.

    “Make one with me?” Sasha offered. ]

    or

    Marcy owns a flower shop. Sasha needs some flowers.
