Summary
“She used to walk barefoot. Our mother. Back when we were still in the creche. She was always easier on me than she was on Essek. I do not know why I remember that.”
His words are somewhat halting, startling even to himself. He cannot tell what brought this on. It’s just that he saw Essek this morning – comfortable clothes, a small hesitant smile and bare feet on the ground – and a weight has settled over his chest.
If Caleb’s surprised, he makes no sign of it.
“Does he tell you about her?”
“Not much.”
(Or: Verin and Caleb have a conversation on parents and siblings.)

The first time (sort of) Caleb meets Beau, she punches him in the nose.
“You motherfucker,” she says, throwing herself into a chair next to Nott and waving down Adelaine the waitress. “You owe me so many drinks.”
(or; the time-travel fix-it that absolutely no one asked for but I wrote anyway)
