    Summary

    “What were they called?” Jon asks.

    “Oh, Christ, I can’t remember. The Engineers? Something like that. They had this whole schtick about being these, like, steampunk characters on this spaceship. Oh! The Mechanicals, I think it was. Or The Mechanics. Yeah. I think that was it.”

    Martin discovers that Jon used to be in a band, and not just any band, a band he’s actually heard of! It’s just a little unfortunate that he’s spent the last few minutes telling Jon all about how much he hated them. Jon thinks this is the funniest thing that’s happened to him in years.

    Summary

    “I don’t know how many stairs there are,” Jon says. “I… I can’t tell. I don’t know. How can I go down the stairs when I don’t know how many there are? How will I know that I’ve got to the bottom, Martin? I… I don’t know how to do it.”

    Summary

    “Do you know?” Nikola carols, prancing up to Jon, pink marker pen in hand. “I think I’ve changed my mind about the best places to cut you!”

    Summary

    Kremy stops listening. He doesn’t mean to, but it’s like all that water he shook out from his ears has just boomeranged back, like his head is completely underwater. Gideon has pulled the cloth away, and as the memory of its cool touch fades, so does Kremy’s connection with the material plane. The world becomes foggy and unknowable and much too warm for Kremy’s liking. He remembers getting sick like this as a kid, how the unyielding muggy heat of the swamp seemed to enter his veins and drown him from the inside out. This is similar, except he doesn’t have his meemaw around to spoon-feed him gumbo, and he might become a flesh-eating creature of the night if he succumbs.

    ~

    Kremy and Gideon take a walk through the Valley of Death. Things don't go as planned.

    Summary

    a fight in the feywilds goes awry and it has lasting consequences on kremy lecroux.

    “Don’t do that shit again; you hear me?” Kremy murmurs and despite the pain he knows the bastard must feel, Gideon smiles slightly, lips curling into a toothy grin. Gods, there’s blood there too. “What sort of bodyguard are you meant to be if you get killed for chasing some tail?” Gideon chortles, sighing softly and groaning with the jolting movement of his wounds.

    “Guess I’d be a pretty shit one.” Gideon replies and his eyes flutter in pain; he exhales shakily and glances at him, looking at him with something resembling scrutiny. “Guess that makes me a pretty shit husband too.”
