Thank you! I love reading fic about people's pasts and so it was a joy to find an idea to write about hers. The Odd Man story was inspired by a tradition we had at my undergrad - a bag of sticks and stones passed from even class to even class, the protect them from the Odd Spirit's bones - which when the prompt said 'sticks and stones' my brain went 'ah! class day tradition'. And it just went from there *lol*

But I'm so glad you enjoyed it :)
