Summary
When Eddie had gotten back to New York with three screws in her collarbone, a scar on her cheek, a week and a half of unread emails in her inbox, and two reports due to clients that her team had utterly failed to deliver on in her absence, her primary concern had been catching up. Eddie did not actually mind one bit that she cared more immediately about this than she did about life, death, and the sacred bonds of friendship. After all, anyone would rather choose to run a marathon than find themselves suddenly being chased 26.2 miles by a sabre-tooth tiger. Life would leap at any chance you gave it to take your options away, but you were always free to take on a set of worries of your own choosing.
Of course, sometimes those choices didn't feel like choices. Sometimes you found yourself surrounded by people running in the same direction as you, flanked on either side by spectators measuring your pace, and the fact that you'd chosen this particular finish line became irrelevant, because you didn't have any choice anymore over whether you were going to keep moving toward it. This was probably still better than nothing.

Summary
“Yes, I do have a question actually,” Arthur said, almost pleasantly. “Are you taking the piss?”
Merlin blinked. “Excuse me?”
“Merlin. I know my name is Arthur and I know this is Tintagel, but come on. You’re not stupid enough to risk irritating me even more are you?”
“Well,” Merlin put his head to one side, as if to consider. “I probably would risk that, because I can already see how much fun irritating you could be, but no. I’m not taking the piss. If you must know, my mother is an ageing hippie. Big into mother earth, peace and love, left wing politics, and paganism. So, I’m Merlin Aneurin Emrys. Suppose I’m pleased to meet you,” he held out his hand to Arthur, who ignored it and strode past him. Merlin decided to take it as a win, and quickly caught up.
History, dreams, and revelations a thousand years in the making.

Summary
Getting across most of the United States in a post-apocalyptic world is complicated enough. Add in a fourteen-year-old omega with bruised ribs and a sprained wrist, and things get infinitely more complicated.
Luckily, Joel's pretty adaptable.
