Summary
Joan Ferguson believed herself to be the master of profiling and seeing the truths people tried to bury. People will always reveal themselves in moments of pressure. Vera Bennett, however, continued to prove her wrong. Everything she thought she knew about her mousy deputy was just slightly off. In their evening debriefs, walks around the yard, and patrols around H block, Joan discovers that Vera has a completely different way of seeing the world. The disconnect between Joan’s expectations and Vera’s unexpected truths leaves Joan more and more unsettled and intrigued. A need for understanding slowly shifts to curiosity, and then to admiration, and from admiration to something the formidable Governor isn’t quite ready to name.

Summary
Winston Volkov, seasonal wildlife-surveyor from the mainland, travels back to their aunt's wool farm (glorified petting zoo) with her brother, cousin, and best friend in the tiny countryside of widow's bay for the month of October. Around the same time, Patricia begins to be terrorized by a definitely completely unrelated group of animals lurking in the darkness.
literally just some bullshit I'm working on. Ocs dragged from some of my original work because I was watching the show and thought they fit. I miss reading stephen king so bad. wip on everything. Not quite a low effort fit not quite a high effort fic.
Takes place after s1. Call me out on lore discrepancies please. I might fix them I might not. Werewolves and horror and chasing beautiful women through the woods etc etc etc. we can do a little scaring women on the side and I think it can be ethical
