The Story of the Winter Jackie Taylor Forgot How to Speak by The_Greatest_Closure_In_New_York_City

Summary
The winter that Jackie Taylor stopped talking was an especially frigid ordeal. It had arrived in early October with a fury of flurries that quickly transformed, without warning, into a barrage of blinding snowbursts. By early December, blizzards blanketed the town’s tired streets with boundless layers of snow above ice above snow (and repeat). When Jackie stopped talking in early March, the spring thaw had only barely announced itself. As piles of compacted ice and snow just barely shed their layers, it seemed to some as if nothing was changing at all.
Unlike the winter’s subtle entrance, Jackie’s mutism appeared seemingly out of nowhere. Almost nothing comes out of nowhere.
Nobody knows the exact moment when Jackie stopped talking - whether her voice faded silently into the night or if it was suddenly stolen from her; that's between Jackie and God Himself.
Or: Jackie Taylor has suddenly stopped speaking, and even Shauna can't figure out why. It takes a night of shenanigans with Lottie and Nat and an unnecessary number of calls to Shauna for them to finally crack Jackie Taylor wide open.

Summary
A wistful ache worms inside Jackie’s rib cage, staring deep into brown. She’s almost convinced to break the silence, but then she hears a yawn, and a third person’s muttering.
Melissa rises behind Shauna, one eye squinting as she steps out into the light to stumble closer, plastering to Shauna’s side. “Mm, what are you doing? Come back to bed.”
Jackie turns before she can see their mouths connect.
OR:
The wilderness revives Jackie during season 3. Suffice to say, she’s not thrilled to learn what her best friend has been getting up to.
