    Summary

    Most people spend the days after their wedding blissfully in love, maybe on a beach somewhere, reliving their best memories from the blessed day. Grace spends the aftermath of hers in hospital, and the most reliving she gets are the trauma-induced nightmares of her beloved husband and his family trying to brutally murder her to satisfy the literal devil.

    Then her dead husband’s dead brother comes back to life, and things get even more complicated. Maybe she should write a self-help book.

    Summary

    Conrad's texts arrive at odd hours, slipping into her phone while she sleeps. Belly's voice notes play in his sterile kitchen as he makes coffee, her laughter bouncing off surfaces too clean, too empty.
    If there are infinite worlds, every version of me chooses you, Belly told him on that speeding train to Brussels, still catching her breath.
    In the spaces between, they create them.

     

    (between Paris and Palo Alto, Belly and Conrad begin a game where they get to choose each other again and again)

    Summary

    His fist is soft on her door, but it swings open on the hinges almost immediately. And there she is: Belly, grinning, barefoot in a white sundress and red lipstick. She looks like a dream, Conrad thinks. He’s definitely had this dream once or twice before. He maybe even had it last night. He had no idea it was possible to dream about Belly more than he already did, but the last few nights have taught him to never say never.

    (Four days after Belly jumps on a train to confess her love, Conrad returns to Paris.)

    Summary

    Superman looks down at the street silently, just like Eve had been. A passing group’s laughter is carried up to them with the wind.

    “Do you ever feel lonely?” Eve asks. “Like, there’s no one in the world who really cares that you exist?”

    Superman puts a steady hand on her knee. “I care that you exist, Eve.”

    Eve hums. It’s sweet, if empty. She’s pretty sure Superman is like, legally required to care that every single person exists. So it doesn’t really count. She doesn’t need to say that, though.

    ~~~

    After getting out of Lex's prison, Eve figures out how to build a life with people who care about her.

    Summary

    "What is it with you and my hair?" she asks once, smiling up at him from where her head rests in his lap.
    "What do you mean?" he asks, aiming for casual and definitely missing.
    "You're always touching it. Like, always."
