Summary
“Ah, fuck,” he said, gazing down at the Thames with a feeling of existential dread fizzing at his fingertips.
“Wassat?” asked Danny, not turning from the window. He’d crowded up against it as soon as they’d stepped on board, nose pressed against the glass and breath fuelling a constant fog.
Nick fought the overwhelming urge to scream. It was not unprovoked, given that when he’d looked down at the river he had also noticed, in his peripheral vision, a goddamn fucking sea serpent.

Popping her earbuds out, Beverley calls out to the living room, “Babes? How’s it going in there?”
“Just about done!” Peter calls back, sounding remarkably less panicked than the last time he did this. It probably helps that Laura’s not howling.

Summary
Time and Destiny are a fickle thing.
Do you know the feeling, when you know that you will regret it for the rest of your life if you don't do something.
And when you can pinpoint years later the exact moment where you went wrong? If you had just reacted differently you would not be here, but somewhere else. somewhere better!
Suche wistful thinking can drive you mad and give you a reason to better yourself. Peter Grant had several of this moments in his life. And as he lay dying in the ruins of the Pergola in Hampstead Heath, he contemplated all this moments. Would he act differently in those moments, if given the chance? hell yes. But those maybes and could have's, should have's are just dust and mist.
But there are also those moments where you do the right thing even if it is not easy in that moment.
Time and Destiny are fickle lovers, they have their favorites, their champions and they love to meddle.Peter Grant was the first English apprentice wizard in over seventy years. Again.

Summary
A short story about a young couple (Beverley Brook & Peter Grant) rising for breakfast, the context sets it immediately after the ending of Lies Sleeping.
Therefore a spoiler alert issued for Lies Sleeping.
There is a general reference to another magical community's existence (That of Harry Potter et al) but no specific HP characters are involved.
The trigger was two consecutive Writer’s Group prompts today: the first, the title above, the second the phrase “He studied her face in the mirror” and the words kiosk, candyfloss, envy and Nightingale. The title prompt is a quote from a work by Malcolm R Campbell:–
