Summary
Eddie’s voice knocks him silly again as he meets his eyes and breathes, “Jesus Christ, Andy?” Then he is striding down the porch stairs and colliding, full-bodied, into him. He nearly knocks them both over. And Eddie’s mother is calling his name, admonishing him for cursing, but Eddie says it again, this time right by Andy’s ear, his voice tight with tears, “Jesus Christ, Skipper.”

Summary
By the time you found him tangled in the lily pads and finally dragged him onto the muddy beach, he’d gone still. Eyelids half-closed, mouth open. You look at his sternum, at the place where you tried to expel the water from his lungs. If he were alive it would bruise.
He isn’t; it doesn’t.
You’re there when it happens and you don’t save him. That’s the worst part.Or, the summer Joe dies, George walks into Hell.

“Please tell me you’re not one of those guys who gets off on the whole android-robot thing.” His fingernails scrape beneath Joe’s shirt as he rucks it up, “Seems inconvenient in your line of work, not to mention unethical.”

If George ever gets his hands on that angel, he’ll burn him to the ground. Maybe his ashes will even be worth something.

Summary
They’re all trusting Nixon’s bribe to set the match and gain Speirs’ good favor, and Nixon trusted George to sell the fall to Mayer and Doherty. He did, of course. God gave George a myriad of talents, but best of all is his mouth. And if, perhaps, God also gave George a nimble hand, then Lewis Nixon saw fit to give him a butterfly knife with a pearl handle. And thank God he did. One is quite useless without the other.

Summary
While numerous studies have been conducted on the effects of captivity on other classes of vertebrates, very few studies have investigated the effects of captivity and its related stresses on amphibians. Chronic stress results in elevated levels of corticosterone (CORT) released from the adrenocortical cells, which in turn result in hyperglycemia, anorexia, and changes in behavior.

Summary
“What?” Harry says, sputtering while he wipes the blood whisky from his mouth with a gag. “What?”
“You know what,” Lewis says, not bothering any attempt to hide the lisp of his voice. He’s not sure that Harry really does know, though; he knows that Harry’s probably seen Dracula, or Nosferatu, but he might also think that Lewis is just plain cracked.
“I knew there was a reason you never let me have any,” Harry says, kicking at the Vat69 bottle, as he wipes at his face and mouth with a dirty ball of gloves.
Lewis groans while shoving his head into his hands. He stares at the ground, waiting... and waiting, but Harry doesn’t do more than continue to make disgusted noises in front of him. “Why aren’t you off to get a pitchfork and mob?”
“Too tired, honestly,” Harry says, while throwing the gloves into the back of the foxhole. “I can’t run through the snow.”

So sweet and satisfying I could cry. Hoosier with a little sister as cute as Abby is something I didn’t know I needed but I absolutely do. 11/10

Summary
Suddenly, and as clearly as if he read it in the histories in the Benning library, Ron envisions this strong, sad-faced man bleeding into grey French earth, and then gathered up, dead, by the enemy, bound for a mass grave. He wants to seize the sergeant’s hand and drag him away from Herbert Sobel’s company, make him impossible promises, swear on God that although he may die he will never be led foolishly and his life will not go to waste. Ron stands very still. He is a stranger to himself. He can’t remember ever wanting anything so much, except death.

Bookmarker's Notes
Actually exquisite. The naked examination of a pain so acute and exact hits so hard. Reminds me of those small moments when I realized I wanted to keep living.
