Why this must be read: This is a lovely follow up piece to "Slouching Towards Bethlehem." I love how this fic covers all the major pairings going on in Season 4. The fic has the tone of S4 down perfectly, angst and mistrust and longing. Everyone is incomplete, searching for something, gazing across the voids they have created between themselves, not quite sure of what they want or need or have.
"What do you wish?" Charles asks in a voice that's begging her to come to dreamland with him, and Fred is ready to go, she's about to go with him, but she has to make a wish before the morning star goes out...
"I wish that all our friends can go to sleep happy tonight," she murmurs, sinking deep into the pillows and blankets of their shared bed.
Even friends who we can't trust now, she adds silently before falling into REM cycles and unconsciousness. Even the friends who we know aren't sleeping in their own beds tonight.
