    Summary

    The world of a sixteen-year-old Morticia Frump is turned upside down when a letter arrives informing of the death of her beloved father. In a matter of weeks, she's forced to abandon her life in rural France and move to America. Things look depressingly gloomy until a surprise encounter, three years later, changes her life in more ways she could have ever expected. AU - obviously.

    Summary

    Lockwood has never been able to stop wondering if he adapted parts of his parents that weren't so obvious to him every time he looks in the mirror. He's never had anyone left to tell him he walks with a stride just like his father's or his lilt while he speaks is just like his mother's.

    He's never been able to remember how his mother threw his head back in a laugh the same way he does or the way his father ran his hands through his hair in frustration, messing it up until it stood in spikes in the exact same way his son does. He doesn’t remember clearly enough to draw the comparison himself.

    He’s walked around with pieces of his parents he no longer recognizes for seventeen years, none the wiser of where they came from. So it takes a while for it to sink in, that the reason the things he does for Lucy feel like déjà vu, is because they're all the ways he's seen his father love his mother.

    or, 5 times Lockwood repeats acts of service for Lucy that he's seen his father do for his mother and the 1 time George finally gets peace from their pining (and some of Lockwood's vulnerability as well).

    Summary

    He rested his chin on his hand, and watched her. "So you couldn't sleep, uh? Penny for your thoughts?"

    This was the first rule of magic: it only happened after midnight, in the witching hour when defenses were low, and hearts that had been broken before still soared. It could only be magic that made Lockwood start a conversation about feelings on purpose.

    --

    In the aftermath of everything that happened, Lucy can't sleep. Lockwood joins her for some midnight tea.

    Summary

    Lucy blames it on her lack of better judgment.

    She spouts every excuse in the book to a ghost-locked Norrie during the weekly audio tape updates she’s been documenting since arriving in London. She even stoops so low as to accuse Skull of messing with her Listening abilities (which results in him keeping his irritating opinions to himself for a whole week out of spite).

    Yet, deep down, Lucy knows it’s because she’s begun to develop something real for the emotionally suppressed boy who’s been occupying the left side of her bed for months. She’s fallen prey to her own weaknesses. Letting others in has only left her with a gaping hole where she assumes her heart should be.

    Perhaps that’s why she runs.

    Leaves before they lose each other.
