    Summary

    “Surely you’ve been wanted before.” Varka’s voice is ragged. Flins is losing his grip, grabbing his loose threads and pulling his form back together, head buzzing, teeth aching.

    “No,” he breathes.

    Varka’s grip on his waist goes tight. “That can’t be true at all,” he says. “You wouldn’t know attraction if it broke your lantern.”
    |
    Flins thinks his wretched fae nature has no place in a love like this. Varka disagrees.

    Summary

    “Before I even start, let me ask—just in the extremely unlikely case that I may happen to be misunderstanding the situation, here—have you finally found other living arrangements?” Kaveh’s voice cracks and comes out small when he replies.
    “Um… while I am still—”
    “It’s a very simple question, Kaveh: yes or no.” Kaveh blanches.
    “…No.”
    “Fantastic. I was just wondering if you would be around to help me with a task I have been meaning to carry out for a while now that has suddenly become essential to your continued presence in my home. Any wild guesses as to what it might be?” Nervousness gets the better of him and Kaveh squirms and laughs. Al Haitham narrows his eyes at him, clearly finding the situation unfunny.
    “Well, I uh—”
    Decluttering.” The way he spits the word out, sharp and scathing, has Kaveh wincing back into his chair. Ok. Clearly, someone is a little upset.

    Summary

    Children left bleeding by the hands that should’ve protected us—seems like we had more in common than I thought, Vivian.

    In the end, we were both shaped by men who called themselves fathers… and left us to carry the ruin.

    5 times Hugo stood by Vivian like a family should, and 1 time Vivian refused to let him stand alone.

    Summary

    PERSONAL NOTES

    Highlighted section from employee profile of AVENTURINE OF STRATAGEMS : “Avgin” means “honey” in the Sigonian language. This is a commonplace derogatory term emphasizing the cunning, persuasive and treacherous nature of the Avgins.

    Comment from DR. RATIO : What complete rubbish.

     

    Ratio and Aventurine have gotten closer, and closer, and closer, until something has to give. That something was always going to be Aventurine.

    (Ratio would argue that he gave in much earlier, it simply wasn't as dramatic.)
