    Summary

    "This feeling that all my thoughts and memories… that they’re not mine, that they’ve been put into my head by somebody else… does it ever go away?”

    It comes out almost pleadingly, the desperation Gustave tried to suppress for months now bleeding into his voice.

    Something softens in Verso’s expression.

    Or: the Maelle ending. Coming to terms with being brought back and repainted. Gustave is looking for some answers, so he goes to the one person who can provide them. Verso is absolutely done with this life, but feels obligated to at least talk to him.

    They find that being a copy of a dead man is less unbearable when you're not alone.

    Summary

    What if Jesus had ended up at Woodbury instead of the Hilltop? What if he met the group at the prison in season 3?

    __

    Paul rounded the corner to the row of cells leading to the one he’d been locked in, only to find Daryl there, in the middle of the walkway, staring at the spot Paul was supposed to be. Paul stopped and took a bite out of the cookie in his hand. It was sweet and horribly stale. Hard as a rock, it crunched loudly when it broke under the force of his teeth.

    Daryl’s head whipped around and their eyes locked. Paul watched in fascination as Daryl’s expression slipped quickly from surprise to anger, his face flushing red all the way down his neck. Paul took another almost painful bite of the cookie, crunching noisily while he chewed.

    “The hell’re you doin’?”

    “You didn’t leave me any food. I was hungry,” Paul said, raising what remained of the cookie in explanation. “I was coming back like a good prisoner.”

    “Good prisoners don’t go walkin’ around the prison stealin’ shit.”

    Paul hummed in thought. “I suppose it depends on how you define a good prisoner, doesn’t it?”

    Summary

    The one thing Hughie’s brain will do instantly, expertly, is play a soundtrack behind the absolute worst moments of his life. The song choice is almost never appropriate—“When Doves Cry” had really thrown off his CPR on A-Train, and Lauper wasn’t the same after he watched Lamplighter barbeque himself to “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun.” It’s something about the adrenaline, he thinks, his brain trying to regulate stress. Or maybe they’re subliminal messages, but probably not.

    The song that his brain plays as he dies is the worst one yet.
