    Summary

    Several months after the events at Les Arbres, River Cartwright is summoned to Regent's Park at the request of Diana Taverner and handed an op: find out who is killing the Dogs involved in a botched undercover sting at a nightclub and put them down. Worse than being made to clean up her mess (as usual), she informs him that his partner on the op is James Webb, who, to River's knowledge, has been dead for a year. Now forced to work together while River's life feels like it's coming apart, the proximity starts to unearth things they have both worked so hard to bury.

    Or: River and James get assigned to an op, and they both learn the hard way just how much people change. And how sometimes certain things never do.

    Lamb and River are on the run in the woods, which would be a lot easier if Lamb didn't have a concussion and River didn't have a bullet hole in his leg.

    Summary

    He waits, debates leaving again until a voice from across the bar with a familiar lilt and the sound of a lazy smile calls out, “What can I get you?”

    The bass player’s heart jumps from his chest to his throat. The man behind the bar is drying a glass and hasn’t looked up yet. His long hair is pulled back making it look less messy than ten years ago. A tattoo of a bear peeks out just below the sleeve of his t-shirt.

    “You hear me?” he calls out again. “I can’t read your mind now can I—” The easy smile drops from Benji’s face only to be replaced by a different smile entirely. “Hi.”

    (Or. What if in ten years time instead of seeing a picture on tv, the bass player sees actual Benji across a bar.)
