Summary
Audrey walks ahead of her, holding their second torch high. She steps lightly and quietly, always graceful and poised despite her sailor's tongue. Her dagger is slick with the blood of a brigand who'd surprised them early on, earning a slit throat for his misstep. She hasn't wielded her pickaxe yet, preferring a faster weapon in tight quarters. Her face is drawn in a tense smirk.

Summary
The weight of her nearness presses on Lucienne, the tremor of sentiments she refuses to acknowledge. Her mind seeks refuge in analysis: desire, as catalogued in countless volumes, is a force as ruinous as it is sustaining. She knows Desire of the Endless well and has no interest in their domain.

Summary
Rowena does not tell the Lords Ivanhoe of the gemstones. She does not speak of how the Lady Rebecca asked her to remove her veil. She does not describe the way her fingers trembled as she complied or how Rebecca's dark eyes roamed her face so tenderly.

Summary
Across the wellness room, Helly mimics her posture, a more fiery, intense reflection. She is all abundance and belligerence in places where Ms. Casey is lacking, her absolute inverse. A void to compensate for Helly’s surplus, their humors perfectly imbalanced.

Summary
Imagine, Sylvanas thinks, how merciful my death would've been had a Lich Queen been chosen over a King. Jaina Proudmoore has no need of a Banshee. I would have been slain cleanly, as would all of Azeroth. Efficiently.
"A marriage of state," says Jaina. "A mutual surrender for a mutual victory."

Summary
Lyra had chosen the book quickly, not because she didn’t care about that evening’s story, but because she loved to lie in Mother’s blankets and watch as Mother rubbed away her layers of paint and metal; as she revealed the woman who was only Lyra’s mother beneath. Then came the silk pajamas, the lavender pillow mist, the twin mugs of hot chocolatl. The story, read aloud in French, their secret language in the heart of London. The forgotten prayer, even though both Lyra’s schoolteachers and their priest said that praying before rest was a necessity. The lights turned out, Mother’s arms opened, Pantalaimon and Mother’s dæmon sitting sentinel at their feet. Mother’s arms were Lyra’s favourite place to sleep in all the world; as a young girl, she’d hoped that she’d always be allowed to snooze in that warm, safe embrace, the smell of Mother’s potions and perfumes perfusing her dreams forever.
Such was the way of Lyra Coulter’s little life. (Marisa raises Lyra herself.)

Summary
“Do you have any idea what kind of resources they have at Talon?” Ashe says and barks out a derisive laugh. “You think I’d do something so stupid as to cross them just to fuck with my old man’s business?”
“I don’t know,” Dr Ziegler says, and she looks at Ashe with bold defiance, a fire flaring behind her glasses, her fingertips gripping her mug so tightly they’ve turned white. “Would you?”OR: a healhaw romcom about pride, prejudice, and complicated FWB arrangements
