    Summary

    Conrad Harrington has always been the genius, the weapon, the problem I.N.S.A.N.E. doesn’t know how to solve. Hellion has always been the one who does know how—who molded him, trained him, broke him, and called it love.

    At eighteen, Conrad is powerful enough to be feared, fragile enough to be controlled, and obedient enough to kneel the moment Hellion snaps her fingers. His childhood programming has calcified into devotion and dependency.

    Enter Piper McCloud— chaotic, bright, reckless, and impossible to categorize. She’s the first person Conrad can’t outthink. The first person who doesn’t want to use him. The first person who sees the boy beneath the programming.

    And Hellion hates her for it.

    Summary

    “Jasper would have healed me if I fell.”

    “Jasper can’t heal the dead. There are limits— for all of us.”

    “I wasn’t going to die, and maybe, just maybe, I could have—”

    Something in Conrad’s chest throbbed. He shook his head. “Flown.”

    Conrad finds it difficult to deliver the heartbreaking news to Piper.

    Summary

    Piper McCloud, just a young girl when she discovered she could fly, had almost her entire childhood stolen by people who wanted nothing more than to keep her on the ground- albeit for different reasons. Sent to the Institute for Normalcy, Stability, and Non-Exceptionality, Piper wondered if she'd ever find people like her-- people like her, but free. Not locked in some Lotus-Flower trap of wonder and eventual contented powerlessness.
    Perhaps that was too much to wish, too much to strive for, and now she has to face the consequences of what she'd gone through in order to get her happy ending.

    Summary

    Originally published on Wattpad in several parts. I'm uploading it here (unedited from then) along with a small bit of previously unpublished bit that was in my drafts. Uploaded 17 March 2023.
    Abandoned work.

    ~~~

    From "The Girl Who Could Fly". Piper and Conrad have grown a bit, Piper was what, about ten? That's how I imagined her, anyways. So now they're late teenish.
