Title: Round-Trip
Author: sahiya
Wordcount: 3600
Rating: PG-13
Pairing(s): Neal/Sara
Warning(s): Spoilers up through 4.16 "In The Wind"
Notes: This is for leonie_alastair for her generous Hurricane Sandy fandom_aid donation. I hope that you enjoy this! I'm sorry it took so long - I had another idea that just never quite gelled. Maybe I'll make it work someday and then you'll get two fics for the price of one! Many thanks also to yamx for beta reading, even if this isn't quite her cup of tea. ;-)

This fic contains spoilers up through 4.16 "In the Wind" for anything to do with Neal and Sara's relationship. But the nice thing about not being Jeff Eastin is that I don't have to get Peter and Neal out of their current pickle, so I've chosen to completely ignore everything else.
Disclaimer: Not mine! They belong to Jeff Eastin and USA.
Summary: In which Sara realizes that there might be more than one way to avoid regret.

I'm counting this as my first 12 in 12 fic, the one that gets to be backdated.

First of all, the notion of opening up the comm for all fic and art centered on our awesome ladies seems to be very popular. So from now on, please feel free to post anything you create that is related to one of our awesome ladies: fic, art, icons, vids, podfic, meta, what have you! We are happy to take gen, het, femslash, and OT3, as long as it's centered on the woman involved (though not necessarily her POV). For now, posting is moderated, but we might change that at some point in the near future. I promise to be as quick as I can about approving posts.

In this vein, we are very pleased to announce the 12-in-12 Challenge! This is very simple: Just sign up here to make 12 posts to the Awesome Ladies of White Collar community in 2013. These posts can link to any kind of art, they just need to focus on the women of White Collar! (Many thanks to leesa_perrie for the idea.)

A few rules:
1. Fics and podfics can be any length, from drabble to epic. We encourage the use of our AO3 collection for linking longer fics.
2. No character bashing of any kind will be allowed.
3. Warn appropriately for things like violence, sexual violence, mental illness, and character death.
4. It is perfectly fine for works to do "double duty," provided it doesn't violate the rules of any other comms. So if you have a Kate-centric Big Bang and want to post it here (after it goes live at WCBB) as one of your 12 works, then please feel free to do so! You may also use things you write for our events this year as one of your 12 works.
5. Fanart is welcome and encouraged. Please post to your own LJ or website and then link. Please warn appropriately.
6. Meta is also highly encouraged! I know there was some great meta about the WC women that came out of a meta fest recently. I, for one, would love to see more of it.

Please note that this does not mean you have to make a post every month. That's great if you want to do it that way, but you're welcome to do your twelve posts in any way that works for you! We realize, however, that we're getting this started a couple weeks late, so one work can be retroactive. Did you post something in the first half of January (oh, say, for fandom_stocking) that would work for this challenge? Then by all means, post it here as your first work!

And finally, please spread the word that wc_women_fest is up and running again. We'd love to see more people participating!
