Author Note: “The Burden of Decisions” started as a fix it for early season 5. For some reason, with the announcement of the Quantum Challenge, I found myself writing a character study of Maddie and Chimney as a sequel for it this year. There might eventually be more stories in this universe, but they will only be published on AO3 because I don’t feel they will still meet the requirements for the Quantum Challenge anymore.
