Well, *I* am certainly enjoying Fortitude, Lazy8.  It rings true to Sigrun and those around her.

A little different is my offering, the next chapter of Reynir's superhero saga:
http://archiveofourown.org/works/6610714/chapters/19604266

In which we check in with Tuuri, and Onni, and the crew get acquainted with their new member (so to speak).

Good to know, because there's more.

Doing The Research for this chapter was a pain. And most of it's not even for this chapter, it's for the next one.

Just a friendly reminder to everyone: I can't post the next chapter if you kill me.

Windfighter, that was amusing. Is Karlavagnen the same as Charles's Wain, Orion's Belt, Nimrod, Fingal, the Saucepan? Lots of names for that constellation!

A quick search on wikipedia it says that yes, it's the same! It's the wagon Thor used to ride over the skies up here in Sweden and probably denmark, Norway and Iceland as well. There was a reason he saw Karlavagnen and thought about Reynir 0=)

Thanks, that makes sense. I thought from context that it might be.

Final chapter, aaaaaaaaaand...

Windy, this last story of yours was very good and very very sad. At the start of it I thought that Lalli perhaps was just missing Emil who had stayed behind in Schweden or so but then ... well, I remembered who the author was and it was pretty much clear then that Emil was dead. It's your personal Leitmotiv. ;D But I enjoyed reading the story very much. :D

Lazy8, I'm glad Sigrun found her way in life again and that she was not responsible for the fire. For a few hours I was afraid that she had forgotten to turn off the stove after they had eaten (harrowing rl-experiences), but a re-reading of the chapter cleared that up. I found your notes and comments after the chapters entertaining and enlightening as well. Thank you for writing and sharing it. =)

Windy, that was sad but consistent with the story. Your writing gets better all the time.

Lazy8, I've commented on A3O, but I'll also say here: that was realistic and well written. Well done!

Thank you as well. I've edited the chapter to make it clearer that the fire originated outside of that particular apartment. (Which, incidentally, should also make a few more plot points clearer as well.)

It has the word "sorrow" in the title, did you expect it to be anything else than sad? ;P Not sure what Leitmotiv is, but thanks for the kind words <3

Thank you <3 I wouldn't go so far and say it gets better all the time, I have hits and misses and that's pretty much how it always have been ;P
