Summary
“It is an event sociologique.”
It was inevitable, maybe. It might just be what the cycle of fame was all about. First the spectacle. Then the recovery, the fight to take the spectacle and make it worth something. And then the notoriety, the fans, the worship getting out of hand.
And then... now. The backlash. The people wanting to tear you down.
Maybe sometimes literally.
Or: Emerald, OJ, and Angel are on their own, out in the wilderness, on the run. With nothing but each other, their truck, and three unhatched Jean Jacket eggs in the back.

Summary
Antlers Holst is a thorough man. Prepared. Meticulous.
He hadn’t planned on surviving that encounter with Jean Jacket. He hadn’t planned on having to figure out the what’s next of it all and continue living in a world he’d already said goodbye to.
He absolutely hadn’t prepared for three odd, persistent, impossible young people to plant themselves in his life and refuse to go away.
He wished that hallowed-out motherfucker had eaten him.

Summary
The Haywood Hollywood Trust has to deal with new Jean Jackets, new relationships, the everlasting FBI operation, newfound fame and (semi)fortune and fans, and running a company on top of all that.
And also, possibly an alien-worshipping cult.
But... y'know. Same shit, different diem.

Summary
He took a couple more steps, then crouched down. Because improbably, distressingly, the hand he could see was very, very small. Too small to be in a place like this. “Hello?” he called out softly, even as he stuck his gun at his back. Half of his body still thrummed with the need to find his husband, but if there was- but there was a child here, and he couldn’t just leave that be.
“Oh, what the fuck,” he heard Andy murmur as a head and one shoulder joined the hand, peeking around the side of the table. It was a boy, very young, maybe- it was still too dark to get a good look or see any distinguishing features- maybe just out of toddler years, four or five. Why on earth was there a child here?
There isn't much left on this earth, after thousands of years, that they haven't experienced in one form or another. They learn, they adapt, they get through it, they keep going. Always will. But this?
This is new.

Summary
What makes pit vipers unique is the fossa, which in effect give the snakes a sixth sense to help them find and perhaps even judge the measure of the prey on which they feed.
It’s been four months since the kidnapping, the death-memory drugs, since going through more than one earth-shattering reunion. And they want to think that they’re stronger than ever as a team, as a family. But there’s always a weakness to exploit, when someone knows where to find it. When Quynh strikes again, she does it with precision. And venom.

Summary
“And it’s enough?” Nile asks. “It’s enough to keep you going?”
“It’s enough to make me love this world and so many of the people in it,” Joe says, soft but sure. “We can’t change evil. We can only try to end each day having come out on top of it, and hopefully having helped others do the same. It may never go away, but other, better things aren’t ever going away either. That’s so much more important. Vital. That’s what I’d want you to remember, if you can.”
When you have a seemingly infinite number of days ahead of you, some will turn out well and some won't. And sometimes you can’t tell which is which until the day is over. Nile gets to experience the whole gamut with each of her new family members while finding her way through this weird, wonderful immortal life.Chapter 1: Nile and Quynh

Summary
Forgiveness takes time. Any wise man could tell you that. But maybe sometimes it’s different. Maybe sometimes Booker and Joe aren’t particularly wise. And maybe sometimes it takes a disastrous bit of kidnapping for two brothers to forgive each other and themselves.

Summary
“It would have been bad if I had stayed,” she still sounded resolute. None of the wobble to her voice that Winn couldn’t keep out of his.
Winn laughed, rubbed at his eyes. “It was bad anyway."(An extra scene to 3.14, because what relationship THAT messed up is fixed with one conversation had over a broken flying monkey?)
