Give Up, Give In

by Remington Rand

Derek needs Casey, and the realization opens something like Pandora's box in his head. Dasey. T for mature themes. (This is the revised and expanded version of the previously-published Verisimilitude and Veracity. Read preface for details on chapter structure, future plans, and more.)

Update:

First off, thank you for reading this story and please review if you haven't already!

For those interested in Lizzie's perspective, I have started a companion fic to this that titled Where the Lonely Ones Roam.

Summary: Lizzie has more than a few secrets, and she's found it's a lot harder to keep them when you don't have two siblings waging war as a distraction. Pairings: Some Dasey; undecided for Liz, reader input welcomed (potential femslash). TW WARNING: Contains content related to eating disorders, will get dark at times.

Central characters: Lizzie M., Casey M., Derek V., Edwin V. and Erica Mason (an OC referred to as Kendra's little sister).

This story is Lizzie-centric, conveying Lizzie/Edwin friendship only. Though it references events in Give Up, Give In, and therefore will contain some scenes of Dasey. It is not, however, a true Dasey story like the one it references.

As mentioned in the summary, I am a little less sure of myself with this fic and where it should go, so if you read and like it, and have your preference, please let me know! I can't decide.

Thanks again! :)
