Summary
Wherein Paul wrestles with exactly what he feels for Kat, torn and terrified of losing the man whom he knows as no other: the one good thing to come out of the war.
OR: "I've been burning all my daylight running;
even midnight caught fire.
Only way I ever learned how.
(. . . )
If you lie awake
while your universe shakes,
and I go weightless and fall–
claws out for you now–
just hold onto yourself–We're almost home,
but we've got miles to go.Miles to go,
but we're almost home."~~~
Addendum: Now an accidental, indefinite short-story collection / dumping ground for my thoughts and feelings re: the book All Quiet, but mostly Paul and Kat. Expect stories, fanart(?), historical inaccuracies, canon divergence and goodness-knows-what-else.
NOTES: Despite the tags, none of this is salaciously explicit, although the subject of sexuality is dealt with frankly here (as is all else in the book).
"Chapters" 1-3 form something of a trilogy; everything that follows is intended to be standalone / unrelated (with some wink-and-nod callbacks).
Prompts / requests welcome! :D
