Summary
Through her complex and long-reaching web of informants, whistleblowers, sleuths, eavesdroppers, plain old gossips, and other agents of truth, Enid hears all about Wednesday Addams long before her new roomie arrives at the school.
Now, how much of the truth is true, is another matter entirely. Enid has heard every version of the tale of how she got expelled from her previous school, from Wednesday Addams filling the entire pool with acid right before swim-team practice, to her going totally Texas Chainsaw Massacre on one boy and hacking all of his limbs off.
But you shouldn’t judge a person by the rumours surrounding them, right?

Summary
The next man is a tiny thing, slender as a skinned rabbit. His head is shaved and he keeps his chin ducked low, eyes on the ground between his knees. Ambessa’s hand consumes his, ridges of his bone digging into her calloused flesh. His handshake is light, weak, barely attempted.
She tries to release him, disgusted, disappointed with this entire impotent town—but his fingertips slide down to encircle the back of her wrist. Quick, the white flash of teeth before a bite, he flips her hand back and presses a kiss to the centre of her palm.
*
Both of Ambessa’s children take after their father.

Summary
He snags a glimpse of her, heart punching, anger flushing down to his fingertips. The smoke distorts; her braids made living, thrashing things, limbs made disjointed and wrong. Jinx turns, eyes bright, and thumbs her nose at him.
Then she’s gone.
*
Ekko, on being the last man standing.

Summary
“It’s dead already,” Nathan states, wiping down a kitchen knife in slow, languid movements. The cook knows to make himself scarce when the Butcher’s in a mood like this. “It won’t last six months out of the womb.”
“It’s a Hatford.” She reminds him, leaning against the counter. Then, like peeling the skin from her shoulders; “It’s a Wesninski.”
*
Mary Hatford loved her son. This did not make her a good mother.

Summary
Dan and Wymack manage to condense Neil’s description to a single sentence, which they rattle off like the early morning traffic report to every hospital and police station in the tri-state area. The first time Wymack says, “Hello, is this the Binghamton General mortuary? I'm looking for a Neil Josten, red hair…” the bus goes apocalyptically silent until Wymack ends the call and says, “Nothing.”
“Nothing,” Nicky repeats hoarsely, and bursts into tears.
*
Binghamton to Baltimore, from nine different perspectives.

MAN. For some reason the implied soulmate-ism in this really brings to mind how much PHM is a spiritual successor to Contact (1997). The characters are firmly atheist and non-superstitious, but there is this quiet, undeniable line of fate tying them together.

Summary
“Not so strange,” Rocky says mildly. “Back in not-so-distant past Eridian eat other Eridian all the time. Top of food chain. After natural disaster, war, not so much else to eat. Ecosystem delicate, especially if carnivore, especially if big. 🎵🎶 good thing to have to fall back on.”
“Cannibalism,” I manage to get out.
“New word. Cannibalism.”

Bookmarker's Notes
“So the people you trust to watch you sleep are the people you trust not to eat you while you’re still alive?”
Rocky hums in a so-so way. “More like people who you would trust to eat you. If was needed.”
I am so soooo fond of them. Also I will always love them feeling out the cultural differences between humans and Eridians.

Heaven wouldn’t hurt so bad, would it?
“Well, it was the words of the Major that kept me going. Something he said at the very beginning, about how we’ll never be number one again if we don’t try. So I tried to be number one. And here I am before y’all.”
Hell, then.

My favourite Long Walk fic, definitely my favourite fix-it. The hurt and the dread and the confusion and the awareness of Being Watched is so good.

It’s almost over, Pete had said. Say somethin’ real.
Completely canon compliant. Just more of everything I love about the relationship between Garraty and McVries.
