Hi I'm Maggie, I'm 28, and I like Nancy Drew games and Ned Nickerson and Henry Bolet and Sonny Joon and also Magnus Kiljansson. Lowkey obsessed with The Word I Couldn't Keep. Nedcy 4 lyfe. Main blog is dirty-switchblade-soul. #MeganGate2k20
It's not often that Nancy is one waiting to surprise Ned at the airport, rather than the other way around. It's not often she gets the chance to do anything to surprise him these days, really; her schedule's so hectic with all her cases that what time they have to spend together is subject to almost military-level planning.
So she can't help but feel a little excited as she waits for him to appear through the gate. She can already picture his reaction - his eyes widening in surprise, and then that big, bright grin that lights up his whole face and makes her heart flip over in her chest coming out.
At least, she hopes that's how he'll react. But there is a small, anxious part of her that worries he might forget to smile, that he might just be surprised, more than he should be, because he'd never expect her to be here.
(Nancy's a lot of things, but she's not completely un-self-aware, and she knows there have been times she'd be hard-pressed to win even the world's okayest girlfriend award, let alone the greatest.)
There's a buzz of voices from up ahead, and then a steady stream of people starts emerging from the gate, bags in hand, some waving and hugging whoever's waiting for them and others heading straight outside to get a cab.
Nancy rises up on to the tips of her toes - but in the end she doesn't need to. Ned's a good bit taller than most of the people in the crowd, but even if he wasn't the small cohort of young men all wearing Emerson sweaters and varsity jackets are hard to miss. As are the young women they're laughing with.
It's the strangest mix of sensations, feeling her heart leap at the sight of Ned's familiar curly brown hair and broad shoulders at the same time as her stomach knots with a sudden burst of unexpected jealousy.
She's being ridiculous, she knows that. Even if he were unhappy, Ned would never cheat on her. He's just not that guy. But still, she wonders if he doesn't look at the girls he's at college with and wish he was dating one of them instead of her. They'd be easier. They'd always be available. And they'd never stand him up.
She watches as he chuckles at someone's joke, and then he turns and his eyes meet hers.
"Nancy?"
"Hey there, Nickerson."
Quickly she finds a smile, and holds up the silly little cardboard sign she made, with NICKERSON written in block capitals and a heart drawn after it.
Just as she expected, he stares in surprise, practically doing a double take. Her heart starts beating faster, and she's not sure if it's in fear or anticipation --
-- but then he smiles, the smile she's been waiting days to see, dimples flashing in his cheeks and his face shining. And more than smiling, he starts running towards her.
Nancy holds out her arms, heart soaring, and Ned sweeps her up in his, spinning her round and saying delightedly, "Nancy! I can't believe you're here."
She holds him tightly, breathing in the smell of his cologne. It's ridiculous that he smells so good even after hours on a plane. Only Ned could manage it, she's sure. "I thought I'd surprise you."
"I'm glad you did." He sets her back on her feet but keeps his arms around her, bending down to kiss her. "I missed you."
The moment his lips meet hers, all her anxieties melt away and everything is right with the world. He pulls her in close, the kiss soft but deep, his mouth moving slowly against hers, like he wants to savour the moment. And Nancy can feel him smiling all the way through it. It's a kiss that echoes what he's just said - how delighted he is to see her, how much he's missed her - and sends a glow of warmth radiating through Nancy's whole body.
"I missed you, too," she tells him.
"What -" Ned starts, but he's cut off by wolf whistling and laughter, and they both turn to see his friends from Emerson have joined them with Ned's bag in tow.
"I take it you won't need a ride home after all, Nickerson?" one says, raising a knowing eyebrow.
Ned just grins. "Nah, I think I'm good. This is my girlfriend, Nancy."
He says it so proudly, like he's eager for them all to know, and it makes Nancy's heart swell in her chest.
"Yeah, we figured," one of the other guys - Nancy recognises him from her visits to Emerson but can't remember his name. "We'll see you back at school, then."
"Thanks, man, it was a great trip. See you all next week."
They say their goodbyes and head out, leaving Ned and Nancy alone. Ned takes Nancy's hand with one of his, lacing their fingers together, and with the other picks up his bag and slings it across his shoulder.
"So how is it you're here?" He asks as they head outside to where Nancy's Mustang is parked. "You said you didn't think you'd finish your case for another few days."
"I didn't, but I caught a lucky break and wrapped it up sooner than I expected," she explains. "I got back the day before yesterday."
"I would have come back sooner if I'd known."
She loves him for saying that. "No, I'm glad you had a good time with your friends."
"So when do you head back out? Two days is more than enough for you find a new case."
"Well, I did get a call yesterday . . ." Ned just nods, but Nancy can see his shoulders slump a little and has to fight to keep the smile off her face as she continues, ". . . and I told them I could fly out next week, which they said was fine."
He stops, blinks, and then repeats. "Next week?"
"Yep. So I'm all yours until then."
It take a moment for that to register, and then his expression softens and his lips curl into a small smile and Nancy knows he's understood. Next week is when Ned's due back at school, so she's putting off the case for a few days so they can spend some time together. This time, she's making him a priority.
He leans down and brushes another tender kiss against her lips.
"Sounds great. And I think we should start with you and me, under a blanket . . ." A flush creeps over her face and he grins. ". . . with a giant pizza, and whatever's on Netflix."
"Perfect," Nancy laughs, feeling completely happy and at ease, without a single twinge of anxiety.
Because if she knows once incontrovertible truth, it's this: that Ned Nickerson loves her, no matter what. Just as she loves him.

I have three possible answers for this
The first is a recurring "It's fucking locked."
The second is "Being groovy is no fucking excuse for poor grammar!"
and finally, "I get your drift, Joe. I live with your drift. I am saddled with your fucking drift."
friendly reminder that ned’s revelation in SEA wasn’t “i love you.” that’s been said, but not with the added meaning ned reveals here. his revelation was “i can’t imagine life without you.” it was i want to spend the rest of my life with you.
it was i’d propose to you right now if i didn’t want to do that over the PHONE, but i can’t bear to let you continue with this dangerous case without hearing how much you mean to me.
@marynostop I am building us a clubhouse as we speak, we will decorate it with pictures of Ned and Nancy and it will be our Nedcy Headquarters where we defend them to the very end

I’ve been trying to figure out what Sally could possibly be saying when the phone cuts out…this is what I have so far…
The dogs! THE MOTHERFUCKING DOGS, NANCY! Malone’s dogs just fucking waltzed in out of nowhere and fuck me sideways they’re going fucking crazy outside the house fucking howling and snarling with their big goddamn teeth and claws it’s fucking horrible.
If i went to Waverly Academy i feel like Izzy Romero would spend like a week and a half being my friend before my novelty wore off and she realized i wasnt cool. And then I’d spend like 2 years having an insurmountable crush on her and everyone would tell me shes a bitch and I would be like “no shes not, shes actually SO nice, you don’t know her like i do!!1!”
I’d be migrating back and forth between my room and the rec room with my laptop, buying way too much stuff from the snack shop, and attempting to befriend Mel so we can be goth besties but otherwise not caring that much about anything else
Oh and I’d get really into whatever semblance of a performing arts program they have there
I would be doing everything I said before and also climbing the damn tree with Allison and probably tossing acorns at people for shits and giggles once I'm up there

The Piazza San Marco, or St. Mark’s Square, is one of the most famous tourist attractions of Venice and where Nancy can go to get messages from the police on an ATM. It was also where we got off our transfer boat to begin our gondola tour. I quite like the first picture I took, because if you zoom in and imagine the crowds aren’t there, it’s quite clearly the same place as the screenshot (which was completely unintentional!) Also note the weirdly squiggly canal-marking lines, which weren’t present IRL. The second photo was taken from the side of our ship and shows St. Mark’s Campanile (the tall clock tower), the Doge’s Palace, and other iconic buildings surrounding the square.
I've been there!! We went to Italy a couple years ago and spent quite a bit of time in Piazza San Marco, I have a picture of me and my dad sitting at a table outside at one of the restaurants eating fancy gelato!
Also at one point as we were walking through, I saw a man that I can only describe as the Pigeon King of Venice, I didn't see him feeding them so I don't know what the deal was exactly, but this man had tens of dozens of pigeons, possibly more, just following him around, they were surrounding him, some perching on his shoulders and head, and every time he moved, they moved with him, and all I could think was that he was everything I wanted to be in life
