Fanfic: The Lady of Alkali Lake by Sevenall
Summary: Jean never said no.
You never told me no. That's what I remember about you and what I won't forget.
"Come on out," I said, when your parents brought me a shell of a girl. "It's safe, now."
My voice was calm, commanding. Your sea-green eyes, too old for any child, met mine and recognised me.
"Yes," you said, the first time you had spoken in weeks, and your mother cried with joy.
A dark and evocative take on the relationship between Xavier and Jean, and at what she might have been looking for when she walked out of that jet.
