Staying ¤ Chris Marker

Summary

❝The monster in your head, won't surface again. Be still my child, wash away the sin. And I as future king, walk off the edge. Hold me by my name, hold me till the end.❞

Luna Grant wasn't a warrior or a hero; she was just a kid at the wrong place at the wrong time.

After the disaster, she'd tried to survive at her ballet studio – the only place she ever really felt safe – but was quickly evacuated by a group of kids who lived at the Natural History Museum and was taken to safety.

There, she met the quiet and book centred Chris Marker and the pair made a connection that nobody could explain, nor attempt to break apart.

Only this world is never kind to kids who don't fight for what they want.

Note

Chris needs more love so imma give him his own fanfic with a lil bae. This is probably going to be pretty short since my patience is short. Like Monster, this story isn't going to feature Adelaide or Dorothy so sorry to disappoint. I haven't decided on a face claim this time; couldn't find one that I liked or suited Luna so there isn't one this time.

This will be really short so around two or three chapters, just to pass the time for now. Hope you enjoy!
