An argument. A pause. A resolution. A story in three parts. Based on a prompt by the wonderful Lurkingwhump.

Continuation of 4x14. Jane needs a friend and Maura is there. Taken off a tumblr prompt. I only own the story, but none of the characters. Rizzles if you squint. One-shot.

Post-Summer Finale (season 5). Spoilers for the ending. Maura's reaction to finding Jane in the water. A 'What-If' kind of scenario.

"Pain. It is at a molecular level. It is all consuming. And fear. Pain, and fear." When someone attacks Jane, with a promise to return, how will she cope? And what happens when her worst nightmares turn into reality? Dark story. TRIGGER WARNING: Rape, sexual assault and possibly self-harm.

A case hits Jane hard, but Maura is there to help. Basically fluff. Slightly OOC.
