Bandom Big Bang, Wave 1]
[warning(s): off-screen character death (beginning of story)]
[note to the mods: I would like to extend a very grateful hand to the mods who continue to run this challenge and help keep bandom alive. Also for the fact that when technical difficulties kept me from posting on my initial date, they were kind enough to allow me the time needed to remedy that. I would also like to extend apologies to my mixer and artist - the world should have seen your amazing works much sooner! (That being said, always, always make sure to back up your stuff and not be a dope like me.)]
[fic notes: This fic is a fairly different turn for me. Jon-centric and mostly gen, it was definitely a challenge to write a character that has gone through so much loss and becomes lost in the ensuing sadness. But it was fun to write a town bent on helping pull him out of that place! Lorelei Springs gets its obvious inspiration from Stars Hollow and it was a blast creating it, I’m not going to lie. Hopefully you will enjoy it, too!]
