Great fic, I love outside POV on Sybil/Branson!

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it :)

This was absolutely splendid. Your writing style is really good and captures things so beautifully e.g.

Sybil was a very internal creature and Mary sometimes felt she had to coax the truth out of her rather than just ask her.

Granny looked as if she had planned the whole thing (at this point, Mary wouldn’t have been surprised to learn she had.)

I would have liked to read Mary's POV of seeing Sybil and Branson talking by the car; it doesn't add or remove anything from this story, just that I would have liked to read your take on that scene from Mary's POV.

Kudos!

Thank you for your lovely review! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

That would be a interesting scene from Mary's perspective. There are a whole host of scenes I could have written about, I just chose these ones because I felt I had the most to write about them :)

Thanks for reading!

I love this so much. Your writing is amazing! I love the idea of seeing it from Mary's point of view and how you both used actual scenes and invented your own. I also think you write and understand Mary incredibly well.
I particularly like this part: "She hadn’t, however, missed the point where Sybil’s voice had taken on the strange quality of a child defending herself after being caught with her hand in the biscuit jar." and the end with Mary and Edith.
