Summary
The first word Emmrich learnt to read was Johanna.
His eyes followed the sharp edges of each letter, cutting across his right wrist, staking some wordless claim, the ink as dark as blood. Each edge was distinct from the other, downward strokes hard and impressive, straightforward. Emmrich traced each letter — wrote it out, charcoal on paper, on leaves, fingers in the dirt, until they were identical to his skin, until he knew Johanna by heart.
Then a second name came after, months later, much more surprising than the first.
On his left wrist, all curving swirls, rounded letters, and sweeping lines, much more difficult for his young eyes to follow. The H molded into the A, pressed even closer to the N, as if written in a hurry, ink so light, the word untethered to its writer. Mummy had to help him decipher it, holding him close, her long dark hair plaited, the tips of it tickling his nose. She laughed, bright and tinkling — “Your soulmate has terrible handwriting, my love,” — before settling on Thana. Death.
—
Or, one Emmrich Volkarin, bearer of two soul marks, and a lifetime's exploration of the different faces of love and heartbreak.

Summary
“I'm gonna kiss you now.” Lighter murmurs, hooded eyes flickering like twin flames in the lowlight of his living room. Harumasa can see the subtle flecks of red in his eyes, so close they were. He could even lose himself in counting Lighter’s eyelashes if he let himself.
“What happened to asking?” Harumasa snickers, leaning in closer like a moth drawn to a flame and in a way, Lighter has always been the steadiest of fires that refuses to die out no matter how many times its been doused.
Lighter gets hurt; Harumasa gets him back to his apartment.
They have a heart-to-heart, amongst other things.Series

When a dying man comes looking for a cure, Jayce doesn't expect to fall in love. It's just more of the same thing he's been doing for the last decade: trying to help the people of Zaun. But Viktor sweeps the rug out from under Jayce's feet with his beauty and intelligence and bravery.

He doesn't expect the doctor to send him to Jayce, who is handsome and charming and above all, the ruthless right hand and son of one of Zaun's most infamous chem-barons.

Summary
He looked down at his hands. “That night broke something in me.”
“It broke something in everyone,” she said.
They sat in silence. Not together. Not really. Just near each other.
When she finally stood, her body aching from crouching too long, she said, “I keep hoping if I just keep working, the math will even out.”
He didn’t tell her it wouldn’t. That grief doesn’t tally. That there is no ledger that makes it worth it in the end.
