FK Fanfic: "England's Rose"
Putting this fanfiction retrospective back on chronological track, the next story up is "England's Rose." It seems peculiar now, over a decade later, on this side of 9/11 and war and all the rest, the volume of grief lavished on Princess Diana's loss. But at that time, much of a generation saw a mirror crack, and felt their reflection shatter. Natalie is part of that generation.
FK's timeline warps to accommodate this story. "Nobody dies, nobody ever dies," so that the entire cast can register reactions.
