Summary
The puzzle pieces judder together with horrifying clarity. Standing in the center of the room, she can see the full picture. Everything missing from the phone, the fragments of herself in the dorm, the odd inflection in Kris’ voice.
This isn’t a dream. It isn’t the Dark World. But it is, impossibly, an alternate world entirely.
Kris sighs again, muttering something to themself. “Do you need me to come over? Are you alone?”
“Kris, I think I’m in the wrong world,” she manages.
(or: two noelles trade places.)

Summary
Kris, contrary to what they like to claim, is very good at being loved.
Susie, comparatively, is not.
(or: love finds its way to the girl— just, maybe not exactly in the way she thought.)

Summary
Mom says, I love you. Kris thinks that’s probably true.
Mom says, Asriel will be coming home for break. He will be so happy to see you. Kris wonders if he will even know the difference, if he’ll see what their mother can’t. They’ve always been a weird kid— people have told them that their whole life, but someone should have noticed.
Someone should have noticed, right?
(or, self loathing becomes a complicated thing when you're not entirely sure who you are.)

Summary
“S'not your fault that—”
“—I hurt you,” Susie finished. She chewed on the concept, the edges of her voice frantic, her throat thick. “Because you deserved it.”
“Yes.” Kris pressed her hands against their chest. They smiled in a way that failed to be reassuring. Each desperate breath shuddering through their lungs confirmed everything Susie didn't want to know. “S’fine. It’s okay.”
Kris burned like a charred pan straight out of the oven, or an oil fire stoked by liquor. Susie reeled away. “You—you were trying to set me up,” Susie accused, trying to edge words around the chasm opening in her gut. “You were trying to get me to hit you.”
Kris wants Susie to hurt them. They need her to hurt them. Susie isn't as on board with the idea as they are.

Summary
Susie thinks she's starting to get it, but when she sees Kris, she really gets it. They don’t even open their eyes when they walk in; not until Noelle greets them. They look like death.
“The hell is wrong with you?” Susie blurts before she can stop herself.
“Sick,” Kris rasps.
Kris falls very ill. Others are forced to face the reality of human fragility.
