Apparition · Fedago
A tooth that falls out is a card.
Sourisette works one side of the Atlantic, the tooth fairy the other. Here they are building the same thing, and every tooth in the class is a piece of it.
Parents make the account, add their children, and write down the tooth that fell: which one, where it was left, what condition it was in. The card arrives with its piece of the story.
No ranking. No comparing. And nobody is ever asked what was left in exchange: that is nobody's business.
The story, chapter by chapter
Chapter 1 · The first night
In the beginning there is only an empty building site, somewhere between two time zones. Sourisette arrives from the east, the tooth fairy from the west, and they lay the first piece together.
Chapter 2 · The wall that watches
Enough incisors for a pane of glass: the Palace of Enamel has a window now, and from that window you can see every bedroom where a tooth is waiting.
Chapter 3 · The keyring
Canines become keys. Sourisette hangs one on her belt for every child in the circle. That is how she never forgets an address.
The next chapters open as the circle goes on. Together.
Sourisette keeps the notebook. You keep the memories.
