    Summary

    In the half-year since their return, Francis had become aloof, impassive, withdrawn. There was no logic to this strange metamorphosis. At Greenhithe, Francis had promised to look after him. Had told James: Come find me. Yet Francis had never been further out of reach.

    On a cold spring day in 1849, Francis drops everything and flees London for his sister's farm in Ireland. James, hurt and hungry for answers, gives chase.

    Summary

    After the explosion, Dr Robotnik learnt three things in quick succession:

    1. A sufficiently large detonation combined with a sufficiently large amount of Chaos Energy creates a wormhole through which one can travel (or be sucked at the last second) to a parallel universe relatively safely.
    2. Earth seemed to stay pretty consistent across most universes.
    3. It appeared that, after a life of self-imposed seclusion in the manner of a gizmo-ridden, super-genius, hermetic monk, when it came down to brass tacks, Dr Robotnik was hard-pushed to tell the difference between most Earths.

    Dr Robotnik jumps through universes to try and get back home, confronting his feelings for Agent Stone along the way.

    Summary

    Robotnik reaches out and grabs the back of Stone’s neck, yanking him in close. Finally, Stone thinks - a normal reaction from the Doctor. He's about to be threatened, or shoved face-first on the table, or –

    The Doctor presses their foreheads together, breathing a trembling sigh through his lips. “Shut up, Stone,” he mutters, but there’s no bite in his words. He sounds broken down, almost on the verge of tears, and the sound of it shatters Stone’s heart into several million pieces.

    Fortunately, he's given another chance to fix things, as long as he makes the right choices.

    Summary

    It never occurred to him that you could be branded with something that isn’t pain. With the negation of pain.

    It blurs his vision, how much he wants that brand to stay.
