Summary
Nell gets to Columbia through a lot of hard work. A lot of hard work. She's going to get through college and law school, and she's going to get rich (ish) so that her parents never have to worry about money ever again, the end. It's a good plan, and it works pretty well for a pretty long time.
Things go sideways somewhere around 1L. That's when she meets Matt.

Summary
The whole house has been crazy for the past month, getting ready for today. Livia’s glad for this moment of perfect calm, between the florists’ departure and the caterers’ arrival. It’s quiet now, though, as if holding its breath. The boys are already gone ahead to the church with the kids, and Connie and her friends are having a last-minute smoke, so it’s just Livia at the foot of the stairs, looking washed out because she’s not quite as dark as Fredo and Connie and the colour of her bridesmaid’s dress wasn’t chosen with flattery in mind.
*
Connie's getting married, and it's up to her big sister to make sure their brothers behave on the big day.

for my life, still ahead, pity me by tragicallynerdy
Fandoms: Critical Role (Web Series)

Summary
The first time Vex’ahlia holds her newborn child, her beautiful Vesper, face wrinkled and pink, hair a dusting of black fuzz on top of her tiny soft head, all she can think of is how lucky she is. She thinks it again, and again, through one birth, then another, and another, and another.
How lucky am I. How lucky are we.
(Many years later, as she watches them age, as she watches her children grow old and grey, she will wonder if maybe, just maybe, she wasn’t so lucky after all. She knew, when she was younger, that she would live to see her children grow old; she hadn’t realized that she would live to see them die, too.)
Vex’ahlia, and the grief of aging slowly.

When Foggy Nelson killed his best friend, it was with a change of clothes. As far as murders go, it’s not one that he can be prosecuted for. It’s also not something that can ever be forgiven.
