I like this one a lot. It's very trauma-heavy, building on Antsy's story and on those of the Whitethorn escapees. But it goes the way I'd expect a Wayward Children story to go – not the way Lost in the Moment and Found went. (I also like Lost in the Moment and Found, but, it's on a totally different level of everything is bad and sad.) I have warm fuzzy feelings. This is about.... not passing on trauma. It's sad, and scary, and one person's happy end can be difficult for someone else... but mostly, everything just goes really well and some things are much less terrible than before. Soothing, but in a pleasantly complex way.
