Author's Notes: Illustration for Never Summer a beautiful, terrifying, brilliant tale by ignipes.

The young man was dark-haired and unshaven, wearing a white dress shirt and rumpled like he'd been up all last night but hadn't bothered to change in the morning. He spoke without looking up from the keyboard. "Cold tonight, isn't it?"

"I saw this guy today," Sam said. He flipped to the front of the book, found E. Warrington written in tiny script inside the front cover. "I don't believe it. I didn't even realize..."

"What?"

"I talked to this guy today."

"He's here?"

Sam shook his head. "He looked the exact same. Same age. Same shirt. I don't fucking believe it..."



( He died more than thirty years ago. )
