Summary
Not all stories are big, city-saving affairs. Some stories are intimate embraces, long-awaited reunions, moments of horror, and moments of joy. This is where those go.Short drabbles and flash fics of 100 to 300 words. Some will be in-canon with the Better World series, some won't. Rating will probably range from Everyone to Mature, but never Explicit. Not sure how often this will get updated. Consider it a small apology for taking so long with the third part of the Better World trilogy.

Nick nearly stayed on the train. He saw Bonnie and Stu on the platform and froze, every thought foretelling tragedy. Only Judy’s smile kept him moving into the falling snow.
In a blink, the pair were hugging him fierce, all smiles and trust. “It’s wonderful to finally have you here, Nicholas,” said Bonnie, voice sincere.
“Come on, son,” said Stu, hefting Judy’s luggage toward the truck. “Let’s get these in the back.”
Suddenly warm all inside, Nick hefted his own case and followed along. “Thanks for having me, Mr. and Mrs. Hopps.”
The snow fell. Judy kept smiling beside him.
