Summary
Susan sits on her own on the train back, looks in the window and sees the reflections of her siblings across the aisle. She wonders if they'd forgive her for it: for letting their home lie in the past, for burying the little that remains to her, for no longer clinging to every tiny fragment of fable to try and piece together how she was once Gentle, how she was once a Queen.
~
Susan struggles. Susan forgets. Susan moves on. Susan remembers.

Summary
He knows. They know. He knows they know and they know he knows and still he says, so they don't have to: "have none of you guessed where we are?"
The words sit heavy on his tongue, cloying and rotten. Peter thinks it's the worst thing he's ever had to say.
Because how do you broach the idea that you're back in the place where you lived for fifteen years, the place where you grew up, where you became the people - the Kings and Queens - you were meant to be? How do you even start to comprehend, let alone acknowledge, that your home is empty and lies in ruins when you've only been gone a year and you never wanted to leave at all?
~
Peter leaves. Peter returns. Peter loves. Peter loses.
