On the third day of Christmas...

Ok, I'm going to get one of the ones I consider the angstyest out of the way. Nobody dies, but I still find it kinda depressing... with a 'but!'. Now lets see if I can do a double cut. I'm going to put an explanation behind a cut so if you don't want the ficlet spoiled you can come back to it later.

( Here is the 'but'... )

And this cut would be the angsty ficlet itself.

( Hush )
