Summary
Carol finds it in the third week of living alone with an unhived Zosia: a New York Times article, “To Fall In Love With Anyone, Do This.” An intimacy experiment involving thirty-six increasingly personal questions and, at the end of it, four uninterrupted minutes of eye contact, which sounds fake and humiliating and somehow still not bad enough to stop her.
Carol, obviously, prints it out.

Summary
Andy will be the first person to admit she's jealous of Nicky sometimes. Nicky has known loss, of course, but he's had a pretty charmed life so far, having her and Quynh and Joe (and still having Joe) on this journey with him. Andy would live with that jealousy tenfold, though, if it meant never having to live through this again. She would rather be jealous of how easy Nicky has had it for the rest of her days than have her last remaining family member be kidnapped and tortured and have herself be powerless to stop it.
(Inspired by a prompt on the kink meme that wanted an AU where Nicky is Andy’s younger, biological brother)
