The Blows of Sound (mcfair_58)
A WHN and Missing Scene story for ‘The Stillness Within’.

This tale explores what happened between the explosion and Paul’s examination of Joe, as well as what happened during that missing month and ends after Miss Dobbs’ departure.

A Rose By Any Other Name (by McFair_58)
