Summary
Constellations were easier to agree upon than the names of the moons and suns that danced across the sky. (Vash still likes his idea. If there can be the Big Dipper and Little Dipper, there can be a Big Soleil and Little Soleil, dammit!)

Summary
Vash throws a hurt scowl over his shoulder. “My blood doesn’t stink.”
“Like hell it doesn’t. It’s nasty.” Wolfwood’s free hand, the one not playing with Vash’s un-fun internal anatomy, comes around to smack Vash in the nose. He’s also got Vash’s blood on that one, though significantly less of it. “Take a whiff, Spikey. Or Stinky. Understand the things I’m doin’ for you right now.”
(Detritus and rotten leaf litter are smells that Wolfwood’s probably never come into contact with, so it makes sense that he’s reacting so poorly to them; the human tang of iron being replaced by garlicky phosphorus doesn’t help the case for Vash’s blood not smelling bad. Vash likes garlic, though. Most people like garlic, actually. It’s a very popular flavor. And vampire legends on No Man’s Land hate peppers instead of garlic, so it’s not like Wolfwood could pull the Dracula card on Vash and say that a different immortal being feared by the general public would be on his side of the argument.)

Summary
“—I missed the resurrection because of you,” was the first thing Elendira said to her, when Dominique opened her eyes and blinked at the IV in her arm. The faint hum permeating the entire space signaled that they were aboard the Crimsonnail’s personal airship.
“I’m sorry, Madame Mary Magdalene,” Dominique croaked. Her eye trembled. She and Elendira weren’t close; why was she here? She was supposed to escape. She was supposed to be dead.
Elendira scoffed, shook her head, and left the room. Disappointed.

Summary
“Millicent Puddin’ Thompson,” Nicholas D. Wolfwood says in his most plaintive voice.
Milly, both honed in on his current plight like a worm vulture to a sweet carcass and also blissfully unaware of anything and everything that doesn’t have to do with the knitting in her hands, interrupts him to reply, “That’s not my name, silly.”
“Camille-y, Emilie, Emilia,” Nicholas tries, flinging an arm over his eyes as Milly giggles, “Mildred, Amelia. Maximilian von Tomas, I have a life-or-death request t’make of ya.”
“Do you need more tea, mister priest?” Milly, light of his life and the bane of his existence all wrapped up in one beautiful six-foot package of a stun-gun shell brunette, stretches from her comfy side-lean against the arm of the couch in order to ruffle his hair.

Summary
With a coy smile on her face, Milly blushed all the way to her ears, darkening her cute little freckles. Wolfwood's heart skipped a beat like a dingy old record player.

Summary
“Heya, missus,” Razlo says, too polite for her liking.
“Hello, Razlo,” says Meryl. “—Show me the cat.”
Razlo’s grin stretches wider. “No cat, ma’am.”
“I know there’s a cat. An ugly one,” Meryl insists, crossing her arms. “If it’s a mess, it might have worms. I could hear you two talking down the hall. What did you find?”

Summary
The chips that were implanted in Chronica and Domina’s heads when they were born serve three functions. Chronica can recite these three functions by rote, carved into her heart and values as they are:
- To ensure that an Independent’s powers will never go out of control and bring harm to a Human.
- To ensure that an Independent’s powers will be applied democratically and appropriately, instead of selfishly or put to waste.
- To allow for an Independent to interface with the technologies developed by the ROOTS (Republic Of the Original Terran Sun) scientists, in support of the ongoing intergalactic exploration program.
