Or, in which an old promise is kept.

Summary
It’s like, as soon as you place yourself in a specific angle, you’re limiting yourself — even with the Beyond. As big as the Beyond is, or the Vast, or any other definition that comes down to infinity, those words aren’t infinite.
I’m probably talking out of my ass here. Either that, or I’m developing the hottest new science for complete morons. Para-anthropology.
Note to self: find a name that’s not as hellish to say as para-anthropology.
No one made space for people like Melanie. She had always preferred building her own.
[DISCONTINUED; final chapter is the rest of the fic's outline to give answers, excerpts of written scenes, and closure]

Summary
If Callum could make only one thing clear from the start, it was this: he wasn’t scared.
Taking the second star to the right and straight on ‘til morning just led to cold, empty, endless black. Only babies believed otherwise.
Callum still spared a wish or two, some nights.

Summary
No getting around it: Danny Stoker was a strange guy. Friendly, no question. Handsome. Plenty charismatic. Weird as hell. Among Reese Alexander’s 6PM Thursday adult dance class, each member held no more than a single piece of a very unusual puzzle.
Strange or not, he was one of them now. They looked after their own.

Summary
His door rattles on its hinges.
"Come out," it snarls, "I know you're there."
Curled in the corner of his room, the boy grits broken teeth and tugs at too-long hair. The ceiling light flickers and Callum digs his fingers into his knees. He's not coming out.
(Or: Callum Brodie runs from a monster he can't ever escape)
