Summary
“I’m sorry,” Sumire says, covering a sniffle with the back of her glove. “This is so embarrassing…”
“Do you—” Futaba starts to offer, but her voice fails.
Sumire’s still looking at her expectantly.
Futaba awkwardly waggles her hand in the scant space between them. “Would it help if you… held my hand?”
For Futaba, returning to the true reality is a daunting prospect — she and Sumire have that in common. It's hard to drag her out of the tar pit when they're both sinking in it.

Summary
“Miss Fey,” Franziska interrupts. “I can spare five minutes to hear whatever it is you are obviously so eager to tell me.”
“Ah, heh. Well, when you put it like that—” she totters over to Franziska’s desk and slams two objects down on top of it. One is a sealed envelope. The other—
The other has her brain rearing back, like a horse refusing a jump. It’s a teddy bear: pale blue, with a frilly white ribbon tied around its neck.
Some time after the events at Hazakura Temple, Maya delivers to Franziska a letter sealed with a heart-shaped sticker. Franziska handles this the same way she handles everything life throws at her: with class, poise, and careful emotional distance.

Summary
Jester asks, “Have you ever kissed a boy, Beau?”
Taken aback, Beau scoffs. “Yeah,” she says. “Once. Never again.” She turns to Jester, and instantly sobers when she notices the look on her face. “Have you?”
“Tell me about it,” Jester requests, with enough solemnity to give Beau the distinct impression that this is the real reason she wanted to talk. “Please?”
Aboard the Squalleater, Jester tries to untangle her feelings about Fjord. Beau helps.

Summary
Yoshizawa fires off a volley of bless attacks. The magic loses its form and splinters away, leaving Kurusu with little more than a tear in her tailcoat.
“Good,” Kurusu praises, and fires a bullet that clips Yoshizawa in the calf. “But you can’t assume your attacks will knock your assailant off-balance. Don’t let yourself get overconfident.”
Hidden in the shadows, Akechi rolls her eyes. That’s pretty fucking rich, coming from her.
Akechi is still owed a rematch. Kurusu, despite accepting her glove, has found a new and frivolous way to waste her time.

Summary
“Gideon,” Paul says, “will you come with us?”
Before she can respond, Harrow says sharply, “Gideon’s dead.”
“Oh, yeah, I’m super dead. No need to let that stand in the way of our tearful reunion,” Gideon sneers. “Jackass.”
Nona is returned to the tomb before Alecto can awaken. Harrow's soul returns to its rightful home; and, for the first time since Canaan House, she and Gideon have a chance to talk.

Summary
Mitsuru has been doing this for too long. Yukari has been on the periphery of the world she loves for too long.
Critically injured on a Shadow Ops mission, Mitsuru's recovery proves to be slow and deeply painful, with no promises of her ever reaching her previous levels of ability. Yukari rushes to join her through an impulse she can't explain, and the two of them are shipped off to an old Kirijo vacation home in Otaru, Hokkaido, where Mitsuru expects herself to recover gracefully and quickly-- just like everything else she's meant to do.
In which therapy sessions prove to be terrifying beasts in need of slaying, the Kirijo Corporation's crimes are remembered with repressive indifference, tea is brewed, a threshold is crossed, and expectations are reforged.

Summary
Caleb looks up into his blackened eyes, and remembers that Eadwulf has fared better than the both of them. Wulf, who has found meaning in death. Who has found peace, in some improbable way through his worship.
He smiles, teeth bloody, as he remembers the one burning feeling that has always struck him when looking at the man.
Jealousy.

Summary
“Jester’s here. The wedding is off. I had a dress and this huge prank planned for Fjord, and now nobody will see either one!”
The Sending blasts through the ordered calm of Caleb’s thoughts. Veth. Her shrill delivery is flippant. The message itself is a fluffernutter: an unmitigated bombshell.

Summary
When he’s done he looks like a new man, like a different person entirely to Caleb Widogast, dirty wizard hobo. He looks expensive, looks captivating.
Looks like a nice, pretty morsel for a rich letch.
OR: To save Jester, Caleb offers up something he's long since stopped valuing: his body.
