BEYOND THE STAINED GLASS
~ an arc of stories ~
These are Continuing Classic Beauty and the Beast fanfiction stories taking place some time after the events of A Kingdom by the Sea and instead of the last four episodes of Season 2 of the TV series (The Hollow Men and the Trilogy). I wholly leave canon at this point and create a different world of possibilities for Vincent and Catherine (and Father and Mouse) Above in the city of New York and Below in the Tunnels, hopefully always true to character and using the first 40 episodes as inspiration and guide.
Progressive from I Carry Your Heart, subsequent stories reference earlier-introduced characters, images and experiences, so the stories really should be read in order.
Further down the main page are links to several stories posted on the fanfiction site, Everything. While these stories are not technically part of the Beyond the Stained Glass arc, they were written within the same universe, because I don't seem to be able to think outside my own box! The stories all mesh with and within the arc of Beyond the Stained Glass.
Thank you for visiting Imagine That. I hope you enjoy your visit here. Feedback is welcomed and appreciated. If you'd like, leave a comment after any chapter or send me an email.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An Anniversary Celebration story
in re-write to mesh better with the events of this unfolding arc
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Even though these were written for specific projects on particular themes, the stories dovetail, precede or compliment the stories in the Beyond the Stained Glass arc.
The following links take you to stories posted on the fan fic site, Everything …
an expansion of Nor Iron Bars a Cage
an expansion of Down to a Sunless Sea
from Winslow's perspective ... Shades of Gray
What might Vincent be thinking? An imagining from Promises of Someday
Vincent's bed squeaks … a writing prompt inspired by Labyrinths
Jamie's Story … Below this City ~ The Hearthside Stories
The Broken Headlamp ~ The Keepsake Stories
Sebastien's Story … Secret-Keepers ~ Hearthside Stories II
That moment between the rescue and their leave-taking ~ Shades of Gray
A/N: Winslow's, Jamie's, and this last Shades of Gray story dovetail.
The wind … blowing and The Love, The Hope ...
correspond in time … sort of. (There's no necessary order to the two.)
Jamie's story and Winslow's are specifically connected (Winslow's best read first)
we wanted to see, words we wished to hear, kisses that surely happened ...
We're happily assigning ourselves homework to fill these gaps
- short stories and songs so far, poems and artwork to come -
with more projects in the works.
Please visit our collaborative site for episode enhancements and expansions!
