Summary
The Skull continued to moan and mope every time Lucy saw Tommy. “He’s a loser, Lucy. It is outrageous that you prefer his inane presence to mine. At least that idiot Lockwood was occasionally interesting.”
“Since you’re a malevolent skull in a jar, I’m sure you’ll understand if I ignore your relationship advice,” Lucy replied icily.
-----
Shortly after Lucy begins working as a freelance agent, she meets Tommy. He's attractive, nice, and fun. Most importantly, he's a distraction from her loneliness and constant longing for Lockwood. It goes well, until it doesn't. And then Lockwood shows up at her door and everything changes. Set between The Hollow Boy and through the beginning of The Creeping Shadow.

Summary
“Lockwood, I know emotions aren’t exactly your strong suit, but I don’t think you’re actually angry at Lucy.”
“Well, what am I then?”
“Clearly, you’re so jealous you’re about to decapitate poor Lady Esmerelda after you’ve already knocked down Floating Joe,” George said calmly. “After everything they’ve done for you, that’s no way to treat them.”
“I am not jealous,” Lockwood hissed.
—---
Lockwood learns from Kipps that Lucy has a new boyfriend. He takes the news as well as you might expect (so very, very poorly). George gets roped into being his therapist.
Set between The Hollow Boy and The Creeping Shadow. A companion piece to I’m a mess, but I’m the mess that you wanted.
