Summary
The operation to the Ninth House has been a failure to all involved. Commander Wake failed to deliver her bomb, and Gideon the First failed to kill her.
He did succeed, however, in stranding her broken shuttle.
Alone, drifting without thrust or communications in deep space, Wake has dwindling options. There’s a limited supply of oxygen and food. There’s no way to tell if rescue is coming.
And the cryochamber housing her undetonated bomb had to go and fucking break.

Summary
Tangled in a musty mass of blankets atop her measly cot of a bed, marrow-aching with failure and dizzy with a suppurating rage, Harrow Nova lay and sweated out a fever.

Summary
Sometimes they will go for weeks without speaking, tiptoeing passive-aggressively around one another until one of them—usually Griddle—breaks the layer of ice with a bowl of unseasoned rice or the rental of a classic horror film. And then the lid is placed back on the pressure cooker, and the waiting starts all over again.
It usually leads to blows. Sometimes it leads to other things. But it always ends the same way. Someone pulls away, someone tries for the wrong block in the tower, and everything comes clattering down with force.
Or:
The one where Palamedes lends Harrow a book he thinks she might find interesting. It’s not as though she has to tell him if she actually reads it. It’s probably nonsense anyway.

Summary
Ianthe hasn’t seen Harrow in over a year, which still feels like a meaningful unit of absence, even though two decades into her eternal youth she’s been trying to teach herself to think differently about time.
Still, she spares an indulgent thought to considering how this reunion might have felt, if they were aging normally. She would have been forty-something, which seems like it might have been an appropriate age for her and Harrowhark to be halfway through their second bitter divorce.
Or: twenty years after Canaan house, Harrow and Ianthe on a planet of swamps and roses.
