[NFB, NFI, though comments welcome. Most dialog is from 2x25 "Unmasked," with a few adjustments; warning: there are some disturbing themes in this post; also, as the cut says, A is revealed in case anyone does not want to know, yet; there will be a final wrap up/aftermath post shortly.

Thanks to trigons_child who kept me sane last night as I flailed over this thing. She is awesome. :)]

As promised, Spencer and the others made sure to let Hanna know about any new information they found regarding 'A' and this new mystery and alias of Alison's. That's why she made yet another trip home to Rosewood. She met with her friends at the Apple Rose Grill, their favorite hangout besides their own kitchens.

( In this weekend's installment of canon catch up: a birthday interrupted. )

[nfb, nfi; everything is canon except the birthday celebration; the conclusion will be posted tomorrow]

Hanna was sitting in her room in the evening when she received a rare text message from 'A.' Rare because 'A' didn't usually send them to her while she was in Fandom. Probably because she, he, or it couldn't see her reaction. But there it was, clear as day.

( The truth hurts... )

Hanna was so hurt and angry right now. It didn't help that she still had all this pent up frustration from this whole week. She really kind of wanted to hit things right now.

Or she could go to the slumber party. Maybe she could hit things with pillows.

[dialog taken from throughout one episode and smushed into one scene for convenience; the details of the text message and phone call are NFB; post is open]

After receiving the text message earlier from Emily, Hanna booked a portal home. It was going to be a short trip. She wasn't even going to stay over night. She was going home for one reason only. Expose 'A.' This wasn't a social visit.

Hopefully, there wouldn't be any singing involved.

( Cut because this got really long. )

After a half-hearted goodbye with her friends, she booked another portal back to school. She was tired and cranky, and she was going to need a major distraction now as she hid from her 'A' troubles. Good thing Fandom was just weird enough for that.

[many spoilers and dialog from the last two eps; final canon update until break because I'll need more than one night to deal with upcoming plot]

It had been a very long day in Rosewood. It all started at noon with the GPS coordinates Hanna and her friends were given last night during Thanksgiving.

When Hanna finally got to see her mother, she started to cry. She was so relieved. Her mother held her tight, telling her it was going to be okay.

Once home, Caleb was there waiting for her.

"You okay?" he asked, brushing a wisp of hair from my face.

"I am now," she replied, letting him hold her. In fact, she let him hold her until she fell asleep. On the couch, of course.

She didn't think about Garrett, his attempt at framing, or the vanishing without a trace. It was as if he had never existed at all. In an odd way, this weirdness had been a benefit to her. Somehow, she didn't find comfort in that.

[NFB, NFI; there'll be one more post tomorrow]
