First, I received an amazing story. If you've never seen the movie, Random Harvest is a classic 40s melodrama that is so good and tropetastic. An amnesiac WWI veteran runs away from an asylum with a stage girl. They fall in love, get married, has a baby. He goes to the city for a job interview and is in an accident and regains his memories, while losing all memory of his time while he was amnesiac. He becomes a titan of industry and politician. Meanwhile, his beloved wife eventually finds him, but instead of TELLING him everything, she gets a job as his secretary and hopes that being around her all day will jog his memory. After much emotional melodrama, he remembers everything!

Many Roads (8025 words) by Anonymous
Fandom: Random Harvest
Rating: Not Rated
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Margaret Hanson | Paula Ridgeway/Charles Rainier | Smithy
Characters: Charles Rainier | Smithy, Margaret Hanson | Paula Ridgeway
Additional Tags: Alternate Universe, Alternate Universe - Canon Divergence
Summary: Three other ways Paula and Smithy could have found happiness together.

This was long and delightful! I enjoy all of the AUs; my favorite bit was definitely Paula sending her stage friends to get him out of the Asylum, she's smart enough and go-getting enough to have arranged that. But the last one, from the point of view of the son, managed to recapture the exact emotion of me sitting there screaming at the screen to "just TELL HIM already!" that I get with the movie.
