Summary
As a rule, Dick pretended that that part of his life had never happened. That he hadn't busted his ass off for four years, working at day and studying at night, just to end up rescuing shipwrecks at the far end of the world. The perfect day was a day when he didn't think about it once, when he just existed, baggage-free, blended seamlessly with the environment.
Just one more working class man who'd taken to the sea.
OR
The one where they became sailors instead, and things didn't go quite as planned.

Summary
"So she gets a few hours of sleep when she can (day or night, it doesn’t really matter), and she wanders around the church, following the cries for help. She listens to the languages around her and the tell-tale whistle of bombs. She sticks her hands into blood, and she stumbles over bits of wood from a house that was standing just yesterday. And she moves forward, and she stays stagnant."
It is 1944, and Renee LeMaire is trying to survive Bastogne.

She bit her lip, half-tempted to lie just to keep that disappointed tone out of Dick’s voice. “Grand Central Station?”
“Grand – New York? You're in New York City. Right now?"
(Ann only wanted to see her brother. The can of worms being opened was probably inevitable.)
