Xiao Chiye grins at him, lovelorn and cocksure, and Shen Zechuan, pliant and worn out, finds, yet again, that he has no plans of extricating himself from the possessive hold

“It’s a trust exercise," Liu Xiao says, amusement breathing underneath the ease of his voice weeks later. “Teamwork. Aren’t we all friends here?”

Bookmarker's Notes
Xia Fei can’t tell what Vein wants from him. Xia Fei doesn’t know himself what he wants from Vein: tangled feelings and misplaced grief, rage and want-that-shouldn’t-be-want. It feels like sleepwalking to see Vein at the kitchen of the safehouse, sitting down to clean his gun turned predator-animal dangerous, sharing meals and tsking to scold Xia Fei over his diet as if it matters anymore. Something he’s earned, taken his teeth to the world of a new reality and bitten down into, jaw working at the flesh of it; a place he’s not meant to be. He can’t tell where he intends to be, all desire and defiance, the mundane realities of his life walked-out-of. A curiosity in how Liu Xiao approaches him now; a blank, unreadable space in how Vein looks at him.
The street is narrow and shadowed and smells of blood

Summary
Frowning, “what?” she says without looking up. “Will you lie down and let me demean you like this?”
“But Wen-di is correct,” Bai Jin says.
She looks up. The intensity in his gaze sends a shiver up her spine.
Unconditional love can be such a heavy shackle for a goddess in heaven.

Liu Xiao says to Wang Qing, years later with his eyes on the scars he knows are concealed underneath fabric, “Aren’t we the same?” Injured by the changes underneath us. Wounded alongside time. Means it. Doesn’t, like he’s raised himself up, made an apotheosis from the hollowness of his family home; god with a bow strung and aimed. It comes out differently than he means it to. His own skin is pristine underneath his clothing, like that of a lamb with a knife to its bared throat

The life in her rings out, parallel to the way Ianthe is a shadowed death given form
