Summary
“I think I'm benching one of my starters.”
Her father stops carving his roast beef to meet Jackie’s eyes while her mother frowns slightly. Jackie shifts a little, uncomfortable under the sudden attention, wondering how she has survived eighteen years of those same awkward silences after saying anything that would be overanalyzed and, half the time, turned against her.
“Why?”
Because I publicly humiliated her and jerked off to it a few seconds later.
“Because...” Jackie clears her throat, suddenly embarrassed by the reality of the facts. “she's been off her game lately.”

Summary
"Everything's going to be okay for you, Jackie."
Or
Jackie doesn't die, not completely. She's destined for something better, far better than fading away in the snow.
But she doesn't survive, not entirely. It's the price to pay when the Wilderness decides Jackie must continue guiding the team she once captained, until nothing remains but her.
