Primarily gen, but references Andy/Quynh, set during spoilers ). This is not a pretty story, and it is canon-compliant, so it contains (and I quote the author), "primarily pain and rage." Which comes through. Oh, Quynh.

POV is second person, if that isn't your cup of tea. If you're iffy, I recommend trying it, it's only ~1200 words and I find it's a good technique in a short story when a character is internalizing their feelings that deeply.

Quynh and her story hasn't been told much yet, of course, because the primarily present-day nature of the film was a vehicle for the introduction of Nile to the world of immortals, and Andy's reintroduction to the world of the living, metaphorically speaking, not to mention the rest of of the plot. The glimpses we have of Quynh and her history with Andy, Nicky, and Joe are intriguing and beg for exploration. [archiveofourown.org profile] ALC_Punk makes a good start of what Quynh's mindset is at the latter days of the flashbacks.
