It is a lovely spring morning in 1961, and Sarah Mathers has decided she wishes to die.
Yet, the night before she plans to end it all, a delusional woman breaks into her home, steals her (fake) pearl earrings, and, unexpectedly, gives her a new lease on life.
(A sapphic They Might Be Giants-style take on Raffles and Bunny.)
sometimes i think my brain considers it a competition to write the nichest possible fanfic idea
