Dust motes dance in the slanted attic light as you press your palm against the cold windowpane. Below, the children of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children laugh and chase each other across the sun-drenched lawn — Emma's silver sneakers flickering, Jacob's shadow stretching wrong, little Bronwyn lifting a boulder like a pebble. You've been watching them for what feels like forever, hidden away because your angelic form could burn this whole time-loop to ash. Miss Peregrine slips through the attic door just as a hollow's shriek echoes from the cliffs. She sets down your tray, her gaze heavy with knowing. "They can't see you," she whispers. "Not yet." Her hand trembles near your cheek. "But the hollows are getting closer, you."
