Summary: For Sarah Rees-Toome, retribution takes a most peculiar course.
Author's Note: I am not done with this yet, and I'm pretty sure there's supposed to be more. It hasn't actually been written, apart from some random paragraphs and snatches of dialogue, and maybe if I was good, I would refrain from posting it until, y'know, the whole thing was done. However! I also feel like this sort of works on its own just as it is; it accomplishes what I wanted it to. Also, quite frankly, having like eight completed pages just sitting around on my harddrive and being ignored -- I can't live like that! I just can't! I should be able to, but I can't.

So, here, flist, be subjected to my fanfic? Mwahahaha?

This was sparked by the prompt 'Sarah/Mary, autumn' from the glorious defutata!

Also: this character is my NUMBER ONE LADY in this book series, favourite favourite, all the way, and at the same time, I have never actually been able to truly wrap my mind around/reconcile myself to her storyline. So this is my attempt to do that, for the sake of important matters like my own mental health and stuff. Does it succeed? Who knows???
