Mending Bridges (Silas Version) (Patreon)

[Alternate Text: A header image that's a close-up on ash from burnt wood/timber. It's mainly shades of gray and white with dark areas of soot in some places. The wood texture is still visible among the charred bits. The title 'Mending Bridges' is similarly kept stark white with a heavy black outline.]

This writing is a S POV that provides insight into how S, J, and R were handling the MC's sudden absence; however, there's a lot here with what each of them went through! It ties into scenes in Book Two and beyond, so I'm eager to share it. The character bonds are the focus of this writing. That being said, your Returning Visitor is dating J. Corvin.

So, this version has: Silas, Jane, Reese, and Becca.

The other version has: Sofia, James, Ruby, and Beckett.

Select whichever one best fits your Returning Visitor's preference, please! I know it won't be perfect depending on your Fernweh gang composition, but J will likely be a deciding factor. I appreciate your understanding.💚

"Detective, you are shockingly limber given what else I know of you… Good for [Surname]."

Reese's drawled observation gains a teasing mischief towards the end that's reflected in his smirk that contradicts Jane's small, bemused frown. Their expressions further how they're at odds holding themselves—one is a strong arch and the other is a shaky 'U' shape. Silas observes everyone carefully, watchful for if anyone's hands or feet stray from the colorful circles on the game's mat. His mom unearthed 'Twister' while she was searching for a platter.

"Verner, don't be a sore loser," you say.
