Summary: Even in the most persistent immovability, nothing is fully motionless.
Author's Notes: Inspired by Seether's "Fine Again". This is incredibly late because evidently, I more than fail at life – I'm so sorry! curia_regis, I hope this at least satisfies what you wanted. Writing this pairing - and this particular brand of AU - was incredibly fun :) Many thanks to significantowl for pinching in and beta'ing this, and, of course, organising this exchange.
