    Summary

    There were three major social faux pas in witching society. Chief among these was the use or casting of forbidden magic, a egregious offense that would call for the caster's memories to be taken from them. Left to be discarded as nothing more than a boogeyman whispered between children. The second, much less offensive then the use of forbidden magic but almost crueler with its affliction would be the crime of being deemed unfit to cast. Whether it be the absense of a steady hand or the lack of perfect eye sight, it truly was a pitiful fate to fall into.

    The last one, a social crime that Tetia has found herself in through no fault of her own, was being an apprentice without a master.

    At night, Tetia would dream of a fluffy cloud that would cradle her. The cloud was warm and soft and enveloped her in its comfort like a blanket. In her dreams, instead of the threadbare smock she had she was wearing perfectly tailored dresses that swished like the robes the adult witches would wear. Her shoes would fit, whether they be the slippers princesses would wear or boots that wouldn’t be separating at the sole with each step.

    One thing she was never able to dream away was hunger.

    Summary

    It's after the defense of the frozen esper, and Celes tells herself that the reason she's still here assisting the Returners is to help Terra. She doesn't consider herself one of them, even if she's being included in their plans. And she still doesn't have options outside of this, anyway. But there is one other familiar thread through all of this, and that is the man who rescued her: Locke.

    Summary

    "Winters for Outsiders and Witches were very different. That was a commonly accepted and widely known fact. Coco would lay awake in the chilly evenings when she was younger and imagine what it would be like to have magic at a time where food had to be stored rather than picked and eaten fresh, no worries for illness nor the deadly frost that made its home in the cracks in the windows and beneath the doors. It was less of an envious emotion, but rather one that filled her to the brim with wonder and gave her mind something to focus on as her and her mother got less customers and business dwindled down for the season.

    The last winter Coco and her mother had spent together was as uneventful as any of the ones before, but now, it was all Coco would think of.

    The last winter….

    Coco refused to acknowledge the double meaning behind those words."

    Or: Coco's going through a rough bout of homesickness during winter, and surprisingly, Agott reaches out to help (in her own ways of course).
