    Summary

    Callista Curnow is unremarkable. She's a twenty-something freelance tutor with no particularly glamorous clients, she lives by herself, and has only one living family member. But sometimes unremarkable is exactly what catches a person's attention. And Callista Curnow has caught the attention of a dangerous man - with uncertain motives.

    Empress Jessamine Kaldwin was murdered nearly a year ago by her closest confidante, and nobody has seen her daughter since. But a girl needs a teacher, and Daud is nothing if not a thoughtful jailor.

    --

    Modern AU, will eventually involve the entire cast. Slow build relationship starting from captor-captive beginnings. Updates twice a week.

    Summary

    "What do you call the stick with the bowl on the end?" she asks, and Deacon raises an eyebrow.

    "Uh, you lost me, Boss."

    "The thing you eat with. Like a fork or a knife but for soup," Clara says, and she's making the motion as if she's eating cereal while she's speaking, as if using the muscles will help her remember if she ever knew it.

    "A spoon?" Deacon says it almost as more of a question, like he's unsure if that's the answer or not.

    Clara snaps her fingers and grins widely. "Yes! Spoon!"

    -

    the sole survivor's first language isn't english, and deacon's first language is bullshit, so together, they make a pretty terrible team.
