━━━ an outer banks time travel story
❝ dead boys aren't supposed to laugh like that. ❞
After JJ Maybank dies, Kiara Carrera dies too.
Maybe not physically at first.
Maybe heartbreak is slower than drowning.
But grief has teeth.
And when the weight of losing him finally becomes too much, Kiara wakes up somewhere impossible:
The HMS Pogue.
July sunlight.
Salt in the air.
Season one.
JJ is alive.
This time, Kiara remembers everything:
the gold,
the crosses,
the betrayals,
the storms,
the blood in the surf,
and the exact moment she lost him forever.
Only now, fate has made one mistake:
it gave her another chance.
No butterfly effects.
No unraveling timelines.
No consequences for changing the future.
So Kiara does the one thing she never allowed herself to do before.
She chooses JJ first.
And she'll burn the entire timeline to the ground before she lets him die again.

"you look like you've seen a ghost."
kiara stared at jj for a long moment, chest tightening painfully.
"just making sure you're real."
