Fics like How to Survive on Thin Ice

Webby is standing in a crowded department store with her Granny two weeks before Christmas looking at a table of black and grey striped sweaters while trying not to cry not because fate led her here, but because it's a popular style and Lena had good taste and sweaters make good gifts. It's a coincidence. “Would you like one,” Granny says softly, after a few moments, because she can see Webby is touching one, gently, two fingers on the folded corner of it like it's a stray dog that might bite. “Oh,” she says, nervous and a little shrill. She's been doing a really great job at putting on a brave face about the whole Lena thing; bravery and optimism is what Webby does best, and besides, it's not like she just found out her mother died scared and alone in outer space or anything. She hadn't even known Lena that long, or very well, what with all the lying and everything. So when you put it in perspective, really, it would be selfish to make a fuss about it. “That's okay.” Her voice cracks like thin ice. She treads carefully, has been for almost five months now, lest she break through and drown. One day she'll make it back to solid ground, maybe. “I don't even think it comes in my size.”
