Okay, I’ve been gifted this fic for Yuletide, and this may be my favourite thing, ever. It’s perfect.

If you’re ever feeling sad about people being kept apart, and Twin Peaks characters getting lost in time, lost in space and never finding their way back, this is the fic for you.

It’s Constance and Albert, getting glimpses of and then tracking down an elusive Diane, it’s about love and friendship and finding you way back into life, it’s funny and heart-breaking and warm, so well-written and full of ideas. Please consider checking it if you love The Return.

Some quotes to get you in the mood:

“ Half a dozen states away, Albert was having a very normal day. Albert always had very normal days, as of late. Like he’d stopped bothering life and life had been so kind, for once, as to repay the favor.”

“The women at the table kept talking and talking, and surely they were all aware of the elephant in the room, but they were choosing to talk around it instead, without noticing that this emptiness at the center was turning all their words into ashes.“Girls?” she asked, eventually, because somebody had to. “That new recruit, where’d she come from?”

“I’m all ears, Constance. And that’s the jokes quota for the evening. Is what you’re telling me plausible? Yes. Does it have the same chances of ending nicely as the proverbial snowball in hell? Also yes. End story.”

On This Day in History March 16, 1799: English Botanist and Photographer Anna Atkins (March 16, 1799 - June 9, 1871) was born in Tonbridge, Kent, England. It believed that Atkins was the first woman to create a photograph and first person to publish a book illustrated with photographic images entitled "Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions" in 1843. Atkins also produced two other books with Botanist Anne Dixon (1799–1864) entitled “Cyanotypes of British and Foreign Ferns” in 1853 and “Cyanotypes of British and Foreign Flowering Plants and Ferns” in 1854.

The process used to make her photographic images is called the cyanotype method which was she learned from photographer William Henry Fox Talbot. Here is where there is some controversy. Others believe that Constance Talbot, the wife of William Henry Fox Talbot was the first female photographer not Atkins. Whether that is the truth or not, we’ll never know. Since there isn’t an actual photograph that can be dated with certainty, that truth is lost to the sands of time.

Out of all the things to feel resentful toward Reddit for, giving me false hopes that Constance had a “memes” folder on her desktop is ranking unexpectedly high
