Summary: It only has as much power over you as you allow.
A/N: It's been a while since I've written anything, so I put ten songs on shuffle, strung them together, and made a story. Gave me a newfound love for Ruby x Graham and also taught me that I have the weirdest musical taste ever.

Sometimes Ruby wonders if she's cursed to only want things she can't have. She wants Granny to be proud of her, she wants to remember what her parents look like, she wants to get out of this wretched town and drive far, far away to Boston without a look back.

People twirling, music blasting, awkward wallflowers off to the side. The feeling of repressed winter energy finally released into muggy spring air. The Masquerade. Another annual festivity with a long history no one remembers.
The sheriff loathes this holiday because masks, especially under the cloak of night, always seem to spawn trouble he has to deal with. But tonight he's not here as sheriff. He's left the deputy in charge.
Graham casts his gaze along the square, scanning the sea of masked forms as they ebb and flow in sync with the music.
Then he finds her.

A Broken Smile
Men falter under her smile, that dangerous plastic grin she shoots before she leans over the counter and pounces. Her prey don't know it's a ghost that weakens their knees and hardens them...elsewhere. They don't know that she killed-devoured-her beloved in another world, a world that brought happy endings to everyone but the broken girls with killer smiles and the heartless boys with empty eyes.
They don't know she fell in love again with a hunter who taught her how to control her curse. They don't know he was snatched away by an evil queen with a smile just like hers.

The clock strikes midnight.
Well, it doesn't actually strike midnight, since, you know, the clock tower doesn't actually work, but Ruby knows the time. She always knows things when there's a full moon. Something about the way it glows must sharpen her senses, Granny used to say, back when they had a good relationship.
She doesn't recall them ever having a good relationship. She's learned not to let this bother her.

Darling, You're On My Mind 24/7
24/7. That’s how often she’s on his mind. And how much time does he get to spend with her?
0/0. Zero hours a day, zero days a week. Because he screwed up.
Graham sits at a bar on the other side of town drowning his sorrows in Scotch and vodka, seething--passively grumbling about how unfair life is. It’s not like he asked to care about Ruby. It’s not like he asked Regina to make him keep an eye on her. It’s not like he asked to be born with the capacity to lie.
