Becoming a princess now would not work out, it would not transform her in any way: that was not herself, even if it had been recognized as her birthright once; she could feel the pain of every cuff she’d received in the past, while of marble floors and winged statues, of fine dresses and delicate pastries, no matter how many she experienced now: there was no connection there, none whatsoever.  

Chapter 3 of Little Bird, titled "there are no ghosts inside the house, but what about the ghosts outside?" is... out on AO3.

Interesting find, an old ad for an Austrian cleaning product “Blitzo” that claims to have up to 52 different applications.

The text reads: “With over 50 possible applications, the modern housewife only needs Blitzo for daily use! The unique 52-in-1 product Blitzo does what other household aids can only dream of ... - clean laundry, dishes, windows, glasses! - cleans dirty shoes, oven doors, kitchen surfaces! - hair growth serum, cough syrup and spread! and much, MUCH more! with Blitzo the chores get done as if of their own!”
