    Summary

    There’s nobody named Lyarra in Winterfell, according to her father; the last person who bore that name was his mother, and she was buried decades ago.

    Sansa speaks to her the next week.

    [Sansa can speak to ghosts, and this changes everything.]

    Summary

    Lavender takes one step forward and – just like the snap of a finger, the blink of an eye, the drop of a pebble – Hogwarts is left behind. There's no jump, no flashes of light, no whirlwinds of disconnected images. Just one little step; behind stood her war and in front stands 1947. "Huh," she says to herself, "didn't see this in the tea leaves."

    Summary

    The bookstore at the corner of 14th and Fen is known for many things. It’s known, firstly, for the books, which makes a certain amount of sense for a bookstore, if you think about it. The place is positively crammed with books, from floor to ceiling, filling shelves and sitting in neat piles in all the nooks and crannies. Books, books, books: books so old they’re practically falling apart, with dog-eared pages and notes scribbled in the margins, and books that are brand new, the covers shiny, the paper white, and the spines barely creased. There are so many books filling the shelves of the Corner Bookstore that the entire place smells of paper and ink, of stories, the way a bookstore should.

     

    This is a story about an introverted bookstore owner meeting the artist who works at the flower shop across the street (and his magician daughter). This is a story about books, plants, awkward conversations and quiet friendships, a story about a stray cat, finding your people, and slowly, slowly, falling in love.
