    Summary

    “Wow,” someone said behind her. “That was so fucking cool.” 

    Beatrice’s head snapped to find the source of the voice, not believing her own ears. She wondered, briefly, if she had sustained a worse concussion than she’d realized when she'd been knocked out. Maybe she was still unconscious, dreaming, or even dead. Because standing across from her was Ava Silva, grinning at her with a wild, unbridled joy. “Has anyone ever told you that you’re kind of a badass?” 

    Beatrice huffed out a laugh, and felt a tear slip down her cheek. She took a step forward, hands shaking as she reached for her. “Ava,” sounded almost like a broken plea falling from her lips, but she couldn’t find it in her to be embarrassed.

    Until Ava’s smile faltered, then fell altogether into an expression that was entirely unknown to Beatrice.

    “You–you know my name?”

    Summary

    “Hey. Hey, Beatrice.” Her stumbling tongue and cracking voice are already screwing this up. “Listen. Let her look at you. We’re all right here. We’ve got you.”

    Through the Halo’s increasing influence, Ava comes face-to-face with experiences she's only half-had and eventualities about which she was given fair and grave warnings. The feelings these encounters drag to the surface will, in time, become a threat.

    [post-season 1, in three parts.]

    Summary

    Recently, the Lanes are full of whispers. The foils of Vander’s troublesome ward, determined to take on Topside regardless of his warnings. Everywhere she goes, she spits at them and the shining city above the trench. All of Vander’s temper and none of his hesitation.
    What a perfect girl to start a war.
    "Hello, Violet."

    Or, if Silco made a move just hours earlier, what happens to our two sisters with destinies fixed on opposite sides of the war? Do they come together, or is history doomed to forever repeat itself? And what would that mean for everyone else?

    Silco takes Vi, and Powder and Ekko traverse a world alone.

    Summary

    Beatrice finds herself musing not over duty and sacrifice and God, but the truth of angels, if they can be created rather than summoned. If they can take the form of women with overeager mouths and careless limbs and eyes with a depth that beckons - a crooked finger, a spiral staircase - if they can be both human and not, both beautiful and terrifying.

    Ava asks, What do you want, Beatrice?

    (Tell me and I’ll give it to you. Tell me and I’ll build you a home there. Tell me and I’ll rearrange the universe to make it all fit, angels and demons be damned. Tell me it’s me. Me. Me.)
