Summary
Clea pulls out a map one day and tells Alicia to point to a spot on it.
She does, and they circle it with a felt-tip pen, looking the name up online on Clea’s beat up old laptop (which is the only computer they own that wasn’t destroyed in the fire).
It’s some backwater village named Lumière.
or: After Verso dies and they lose everything in the fire, the Dessendre sisters leave Paris behind.

Summary
The whole concept of her is foreign and enigmatic, and Marisa wants to pull her apart and study her beneath a chemist's microlens; she wants to distill her virtue into discreet molecules that can be classified and indexed and mimicked. She wants to dissect and possess every inch of her mystery until she understands that fearlessness too.

Summary
Bella Brown, in the truest form of optimistic naïveté, had thought that the start of something new (Billy) would be the end of something very old (Bella-isms). How very wrong she was.

Summary
“I won't bury my people’s gods in an unmarked grave,” the words wintered Kurapika’s mouth, “or dub their tongue your language. So hear me when I say this, Lucifer: I will never forgive what you’ve done.”
Kuroro’s lungs seared, white-hot and celestial.
"Heard and heeded."
(or: kuroro's got a flower in his chest, a blooming tattoo on his skin, and an ache for a lover more tragic than he is.)

Summary
"You are capital," her smile grew into a grin, which infected his face, until they grinned together like a pair of lovesick fools walking along a muddy path on a rainy day.
Sadly, all good things must come to an end, and sooner than they would have liked, they stood outside his hotel, looking into each other's eyes, the desire for many more words to be said burning within them. Deciding quickly there wasn't enough time, she chose instead to leap into his arms like a sprightly frog, kissing him quick and hard, the force making him stagger backwards. The surprise of the impact had him grunt, which devolved into laughter, and he spun her around giddily, kicking up mud all over his singed coat tails and her burnt hem.
"There truly is no other like you, my dear" Friedrich muttered against her lips.

Summary
Would you imagine the same? Perhaps you thought of more. I was still innocent then, not fully knowing what it was I wanted from you. Not as I do now. But you, a man, surely you thought of much more from me?
Indulge me, Doctor Jordan.

Summary
DISCLAIMER: In real life, I do not know anyone featured in this story. I have zero insight into what sort of interactions David Bowie and Jennifer Connelly had off-screen. This is completely fiction.
I mean no disrespect to either David or Jennifer, nor to their respective spouses, exes, children and so on. Please, no hate.
Jim Henson's characters belong to Jim Henson. I make no money from this work.
Lyrics are from David Bowie and Radiohead, respectively.
Poem is from Longfellow.
*ends disclaimer*
Jennifer deals with the loss of David in her own way. The subconscious is a strange animal; her 'memories' are part fiction, part truth.
In the end, love is all that matters.

The first time had been a mistake.
The second time was not a mistake, but a sin.
The third, the fourth, the fifth, the sixth, every time after that had become a wicked habit.
