    Summary

    Joli is rapidly losing the ability to begin a conversation with her colleague in a way that doesn’t start with the words “I’m worried about…”. She knew what she was getting into when making it her life’s goal to give the kids in the city a better life than the half of her family that had survived their third resettlement had. She spends a lot of time fretting about things, it’s ostensibly what she’s best at, apart from speaking four languages reasonably well and doing the voices when reading from a story book. It’s no wonder then, that the first thing she says while she and Aim are fixing up the rumbling generator with duct tape and a prayer is “I’m worried about Nona.”

    OR

    Five times Nona and Joli were having two completely different conversations at the same time, and one time all the cards are laid on the table.

    Summary

    Pyrrha walks into the library in the morning, furious, and blocks Paul into the corner of two bookshelves with her arm. “You’re toying with me,” she accuses.
    “Yes,” they say, and after a few seconds amend: “Just a little bit.”
    -
    Pyrrha was used to being the pursuer. This is new.

    Summary

    “Stop by the shop on the way home.”

    Gideon raised an eyebrow. “What for?”As far as she was aware, the fridge was still pretty well stocked. Harrow had plenty to peck at for at least another week.

    Harrowhark finally looked up again. There was a strange glint in her eye. Something glittered that portended a certifiable Nonagesimus kind of nasty that Gideon didn’t want to touch with a twelve foot pole.
    “Porkchops,” she said at last. “Ground beef. Bratwurst. Red meats, ideally.”

    “Feeling carnivorous, are we?” Gideon joked. Harrow did not deign to dignify this with a response.
    ---
    Less than a week ago, Gideon received a call stating her mother was dead.

    In an unrelated event, Harrowhark is suddenly asking for meat.
