Terminal City is on the verge of collapsing. The war has gone on far too long, and the toll has begun to show. The siege has kept them from leading the lives that Max so desired for her people, and she herself is at breaking point as a result. But, as it turns out, luck may be on their side after all. A political loophole is discovered, something that grants the denizens of Terminal City diplomatic immunity. The thing to remember about deals though, is that if it seems too good to be true, it probably is. Nothing is without a price, especially not in Post-Pulse America. Will Max and Alec be able to handle the situation as it needs to be, or will the conditions of this loophole force them to buckle under the pressure?
*Written and Inspired by a plot bunny of Laughters Melody on DA Challenges on Live Journal.
