Rating: PG
Disclaimer: Sadly, not mine.
A/N: The title, and the text of the cut, are both from T. S. Eliot’s Four Quartets. Other than from 4X13, I’ve borrowed dialogue from Family of Blood and Doomsday, and a line from Do I Have To Say The Words? by Bryan Adams. A sequel, of sorts, to Rosa Sine Spina.
Spoilers: Spoilerific for 4X13
Summary: We could start again. I’d like that, you and me.
