Summary
{The highly (?) anticipated sequel of The Aldersgate School Files}
University; tall order at the best of times, let alone when it’s Cambridge.
Everything is going exactly to plan - Any day now River would be getting scouted for M.I.5, but in the meantime, a History and Politics degree from St John’s College Cambridge wouldn’t hurt, and even better, his boyfriend is studying right beside him. What he hadn’t counted on is that people aren’t as kind in the real world as back home, and all of a sudden life isn’t so easy all the time.
James can’t believe his luck! He proved his dad wrong and secured himself a place in St John’s studying Political Science and no one could ever take that away from him. Even if River is acting kind of weird.
It’s sink or swim time for River and James.

Summary

Summary
Well Fuck.
River's whole life exploded last term, and now he's back to being one of the losers. He doesn't even care that no one thinks he's cool anymore, he's more concerned with how he'd gonna fail all his exams and end up a bum for life.
That being said, there is a certain someone that's been on his mind...

Summary
Jaime is aware that going away inside, the way he does when the world is so much he can not remain in his body, and going under, the way he does with Brienne, when she is in control and he is so exactly right there with her that the rest of the world fades out of focus, are connected somehow. They aren’t the same, but they are similar. At first he thought they were exact opposites, the two extremes on either end of the spectrum of being in or out of his body, but the more he and Brienne explored what she was capable of doing to him, the more he realized it wasn’t that simple.
Alternatively: After the war Jaime and Brienne visit Casterly Rock. Jaime deals with being there to the best of his ability. Brienne helps him however she can.

Even stranger to witness their affliction.
