Fics like You Say Goodbye Easily

Victoire wakes to the sound of a starling murmuration passing over Oxford, a vision of sugar pearls painted on waves of dark chocolate wings. It’s red and dark out, though the horizon—or what little of it isn’t obscured by the skyline—glows like brightest noon. Victoire pushes back her sheets and immediately notices that she’s somehow even more tired than before. It’s oppressive now, a shard of hurt in her chest, dulled by the disorientation, intensified by memories. She can’t do this. She cries. She drops out of her bed and plods over to the window; they’re two stories up, hardly high enough to break an arm. And yet her head is so heavy, her legs lame, and she wants to sink into the floor and then some, keep sinking until there’s no light to remember she’d ever been born at all. Victoire tries to save her cohort. Time travel + slice of life. (TW for suicidal ideation and mentions of character death)
