Summary
"Stochastic convergence" formalizes the idea that a sequence of essentially random or unpredictable events can sometimes be expected to settle into a pattern. The pattern may for instance be
• Convergence in the classical sense to a fixed value, perhaps itself coming from a random event
• An increasing similarity of outcomes to what a purely deterministic function would produce
• An increasing preference towards a certain outcome
• An increasing "aversion" against straying far away from a certain outcome
• That the probability distribution describing the next outcome may grow increasingly similar to a certain distribution- Language:

Summary
The words just sit there, unsaid, because he can’t ever find the right ones now. There are words he knows, and many he doesn’t, and when Lena does talk to him, sometimes he can’t tell which is which, and which words mean things like good and home and safe and alive, and which mean something else entirely.

Summary
"It is done," Xenk says. He holds up his own right hand to demonstrate, displaying the golden light that is already sinking into his gauntlet and disappearing beneath. "We are bound, you and I, until the magic is dispelled."
"What the fuck," Edgin whispers. He scrabbles at his sleeve, yanking it up to examine the faintly-glowing runes that have encircled his wrist. "What the fuck? What do you mean, bound?"
Sent by the High Harpers to retrieve a criminal to aid in a desperate mission, and authorized to use binding magic to ensure his cooperation, Xenk comes to understand and long for the former Harper agent Edgin Darvis during the tenday they spend in Icewind Dale, surrounded on all sides by ice, and cold, and endless lonely nothingness.

Summary
He went back the only available seat next to curly haired guy. Stiles subtly cleared his throat. The guy was sitting in the aisle seat, wearing earbuds, looking at his phone, and his blue backpack was on the seat next to him. The only way it could be more clear that a seatmate was unwelcome was if he physically removed the window seat from the train.
And, judging by the glare he was shooting Stiles, that option hadn't been ruled out entirely.
"Can I sit here?"
The guy pulled out one earbud, "What?" he asked.
"Can I sit here?" Stiles repeated. The guy didn't move, and Stiles mouth ran off without him. "You know, common courtesy, shared space. All that."

Summary
Stiles turns to look over his shoulder again. Something’s giving him the heebie-jeebies, and he doesn’t even know why. The couple is still walking behind him, not paying attention to anyone or anything but each other, yet Stiles can’t help but feel watched. But it’s just his imagination, right? Right. Has to be. He’s walking home alone at night. It’s not unusual that his nerves are working on overdrive. There’s nobody else around. It’s just the couple. Just the couple. The shortcut through the park is usually empty this time at night. People either don’t know about it, or they’re avoiding it.
They’re probably avoiding it.
Fuck.
