marycrawford | new Guardian fic: Close Your Eyes and See Me

I started posting my long Guardian art AU, yay! It's about 85k which I'm still cutting into chapters, and I need to fix and expand some scenes toward the end so it's not quite done yet. But posting once a week or so will give me time to work on that.

Get paid to sit on a chair, basically. Piece of cake, right?
Well.

This all started from a delightful prompt by

cyberbrain in the Guardian Prompt Fest in May 2020. Yeah. It's been a while, but this story kept me company through the upheaval of the past years.
