Title: Won’t Ever Again Rating: PG Word Count: 144 Pairing: Alanna/Jonathan Round/Fight: 1A Summary: The aftermath isn’t over when she leaves. Inspired by lyrics from “Part of Me” by Katy Perry because apparently Katy is my Jon!tunes of choice.
The chill of the catacombs clings to her bones for days after they carry her out. Damp and clammy, she wraps herself in blankets even though summer is around the corner.
She shivers, enough that Jonathan and George begin to worry, and the tears that squeeze from the corners of her eyes and leak down her cheeks are cold.
The desert calls, and when she asks, Jon grants her leave.
He hopes, when she goes, that the sun will reach down into the dark corners of her heart and bring her back to him; he doesn’t have the energy to mourn those still living.
Alanna, when she leaves Corus, doesn’t look back. She hopes, when she returns, that she’ll be able to look Jon in the eyes –blue, blue Conte eyes so like…she halts the thought—and not feel the dull, crazed chill return.

Ooh, creeeeeeppy. I like, I really like.
*shifty eyes*
George doesn't have blue eyes. I bet she doesn't feel chilled looking at him. A/G ftw.

I do like this explanation for Alanna's departure for the desert, that she's somehow affected by that last fight with Roger. And I imagine it would indeed be rather unsettling, and her seeing Roger in Jon was a nice touch. Good one!
