Few Problems Are Bears
"The trick is to see people as they are. Not how they project themselves, or how you see them."
A Foster Boyfriend
"It was never gonna be forever, but… it was beautiful."

Sam set the money down. A crooked smile curving her lips. “I *knew* you were under-charging me last time. First hit is cheap, eh?”
