Title: Through His Teeth
Rating: General
Word Count: 3550
Characters: Dr. Paul Christian & Nikki
Notes/Warnings: Brief mentions of childhood poverty, the potential dangers of the children's home/foster care system, and insecurities around adoption. Based on both the radio show and the 1944 novelization by Ruth Adams Knight and Jean Hersholt. Written for the 2020 Be the First! challenge. Also available on AO3.
Summary In the wake of the events of Dr. Christian’s Office, thirteen-year-old Nikki Malone has dodged reform school, found a place to call home, and turned over a new leaf. But some habits are hard to break, even in squeaky-clean River’s End. Five times Nikki told a lie (and one time he told the truth without knowing it).
