    Summary

    He’s two weeks into his search when he sees the advertisement, small and unassuming, tucked away in the back of the local newspaper. “Andromache Restoration seeks furniture restoration specialist,” it says, and provides a mailing address to which applicants can send a portfolio. Nicky pauses, coffee cup halfway to his mouth, more than a little stunned by the opportunity. He knows of Andromache Restoration—knows the artists there from the work they’ve done across London, the paintings cleaned and repaired, the ceramics restored from broken pieces, the metalwork reforged.

    Summary

    Vernon Roche, forced into retirement by the injuries he got failing to save King Foltest from being assassinated, settles down in the woods with a pile of dogs, maybe to drink himself to death.
    One of these dogs retrieves his neighbor, a mysterious one-eyed hermit.

     

    I really can't explain myself, in the midst of everything else I was working on I saw that tiktok where the guy had stunt arrows and his springer spaniel was retrieving them for him, and I thought, what if, what if, what if and suddenly there were 50,000 words in a doc. Also sass drew art so then I had to keep going.

    Summary

    “And what rough beast, its hour come round at last, slouches towards Bethlehem to fucking bitch me out.”

    “Hullo, Paddy. You’re looking well.”

    Or perhaps he simply looks like the version of him Bill used to know – clean shaven and sun-blasted – and maybe, after all this time, there is a kind of comfort in that.

    --

    Or: after one of David's hiking trips ends in disaster, Paddy and Bill would be glad if they never crossed paths again, only to run into each other years later.

    Summary

    After drinks and cheese and more drinks, Matthew offered to talk Fiona to the cab rank.

    “Play nice,” Matthew said when they were safely in the stairwell.

    “I am,” said Fiona. “I have been nothing but gracious while your future sister-in-law trails mud all over your flat.”
