    Turn me back. Please, please, Carol. Please, I want to go back!

    Carol reaches for Zosia, then doesn’t.

    “I don’t think that’s possible,” she says.

    Or: One more take on deplurb’d Zosia for your reading pleasure :)

    Summary

    “I didn’t keep most of the memories. Other people’s memories. I get flashes of big things, births, deaths. Except about you.”

    Carol feels the confusion slip onto her face. Nervousness creeps up her spine again. “Me?”

    “I know everything that anybody has ever thought about you, Carol. Every memory. Every feeling. Helen. Your ex-girlfriends. Your dentist. It’s like I have a Carol encyclopedia in my head.”

    Carol had thought that she was done experiencing fresh horrors. What a nightmare it is to realize that she is not. “Oh, god.” She says.

    “Oh, god,” Zosia agrees.

    After they manage to break Zosia free of the hive, Zosia and Carol try to navigate the field of landmines that is their relationship.

    Summary

    "Like we're aware you just got goosebumps."

    Distantly, Carol knows something is amiss. But Zosia’s lips just ghosted against her own and the tug inside of Carol was like the end of a bungee jump—a jerk towards something inevitable. She stares at Zosia, who hovers only inches away, making that same face she always makes, landing somewhere between hesitance, asking, and… Was that want?

    “Would you like us to stay, Carol?”

    She sighed. “I’d like you to do whatever the fuck you want. I’m just saying, it’s an option.”

    “What are you proposing?”

    “A hug.”

    A choked laugh bubbled in Carol’s throat. “A hug?”
