Oh, holy wow. This is amazing. This is beautiful and heartbreaking and totally wonderful. You took that tiny little story, and the canon we've gotten since it was written, and created something so powerful and real!
I love
But Anne felt the fire in her belly now. It wasn't defiance -- it was love. It moved her heart, made her fingers fly over the keys of the piano. She knew what her mother did not, that Patrick was the earth, the grounding and the center her father's career had denied her her whole life.
and
He pulled crystals off the chandelier in the dining room after he shimmied his way up chair legs and onto the table. He always wanted to be as high as he could.
-- the crystals, like foreshadowing of Ancient technology. And how he always wants to get up high. To get away. To soar.
And oh, oh --
Mostly, though, John was a warm presence, his voice soft and sometimes cracking as he read, from Aa-Al, Am-B, C.
The fire went out completely when he cracked the spine on J.
Gorgeous. Heartbreaking. Thank you SO MUCH, mystery remixer!
