when naberius tern starts manifesting in Ianthe she won’t tell anyone but there will be signs by Crane_Carlisle

Summary
Prince Ianthe Naberius loses her self, soul, and sanity—not that anyone has time for that.
Also, Paul got a little more touched by permeability of the soul than intended and might be thinking about the Tridentarii too much. (They blame their predecessors.)

Summary
"First," said Gale. "Do not kill any thinking creatures in Waterdeep unless you must to protect yourself or you have my express permission."
As Gale spoke, he could feel the weight of his words sinking into the person sitting across from him. It was like casting a spell, but took no effort. Astarion had been staring hollowly into his goblet of blood, but at this he made a faintly interested noise. As if the rule were novel and he was considering the shape of it.
"Second, you will obey me in all things," said Gale. There didn't feel like there was any honest way of softening that. Astarion didn't make any sound at all.
"Third, do not leave the tower without permission." Astarion made another speculative noise, considering this one too. But then his shoulders hunched and his eyes skittered down, as if he didn't want to look at what was about to happen.
"Fourth," Gale said, and paused. He started with some context: "There is a tressym upstairs."
Astarion's head twitched. He looked up at Gale, blinking, startled. He had the air of someone who had been bracing for a blow and instead had just been handed a balloon animal.
"A what?" he asked.

Summary
So she wasn't thinking too hard, and Camilla was in the kind of pain that heralded imminent sepsis. Pyrrha wanted to intervene. No, stare it in the face: she wanted to save her, save them both—like a time traveler with the chance to do it right this go-round. Bet on winning dogs. Make them fold the hand they'd been dealt. But the way these particular dice fell—two landmine people, one of them too cavalier to bear, and Pyrrha so invested it made her look stupid—was that the next time she found Camilla on the bathroom floor, Pyrrha got down on her knees.
Pyrrha Dve makes a series of ill-advised decisions. Everyone on New Rho is trying their best.

Summary
Pre-Martinaise, Harry had just been dumped by Jean after an ill-advised and toxic affair of six months. Now, as Harry returns to life in Jamrock, Jean is tasked with explaining to his partner what happened between them and who they are to each other — all while reconstituting Harry's task force under the leadership of the 41st's newest lieutenant, Kim.
Kim, Jean and Harry head back to Martinaise after tensions flare between the Union and the RCM, and the three of them work to subvert corporate and Coalition interference in the region while Jean and Harry rediscover their feelings for each other.

Summary
Cytherea played her next card. It settled on the table with the image pointing away from Augustine, the word upside down, but he didn’t need to read it. It was the brightest, loveliest card in the deck — a sun wreathed in gold. An unsettling, thousand-wheeled nothing. Something made of cartilage and beautiful pink flesh; something that might have been called an angel once upon a time.
Judgment.
Cytherea sank further away from the light. “Your move.”

You kissed John like the animal you had become, and he responded with the fealty of a child, and then with the force of a god, and then with the passion of the abandoned.

Summary
People, it turns out, are horny for depression. Or maybe it’s that people are horny for depressed gods. Or maybe enduring betrayal on a literally cosmic scale makes people hotter. Or maybe the death drive is real, and the many-tongued abyss’s breath is still thick in your hair, and it makes everyone want to move closer and take a big, deep whiff. Or maybe you’re God, and they’re scared.
Or: John Gaius meets his daughter, remembers the women he left behind, and deals poorly with being the male god of a universe in which the divine is essentially feminine.

Summary
“You know you and I have the shittiest jobs out of anyone here,” Naberius murmurs, and the corner of his mouth flicks up in some semi-hysterical smile that’s gone just as soon as it arrives.
A chill settles in the pit of Colum’s stomach that he refuses to consider. But his stillness answers for him, and it’s humiliating.
“Poor us.” Naberius swallows, a nervous little sound. His hand finds its way to the front of Colum’s shirt, just below his stomach, where the heat is. “Oh, comfort me, Eighth,” he breathes out, half-laughing through the drama of it all—yet here he is, melting with real relief when Colum crushes him bodily against the tree with his weight, presses so hard into him he could make him disappear.
[Colum/Naberius, taking out their frustrations on each other.]

Summary
On the night of the anniversary dinner, the Third and Sixth Houses end up working together—kind of, almost—with nearly good intentions to prove that neither of them were responsible for the deaths of Abigail Pent and Magnus Quinn.
Or, Gideon Nav was not paying attention and did not notice the complex, Empire-shaking, absolutely stupid political drama unfolding around her the night of the murder investigation.

Summary
"You know I had to do it to them," John mumbles.
He misses the beach. The real beach. The current one is mostly soil with a lacy veneer of nuclear ash, clammy and streaky and hilariously radioactive, which is a real bummer when he thinks about it too hard. But the twenty-five meter sea level rise that came when all the freshwater ice finished melting around the mid-century mark ate away at the shoreline, rolled in between the skyscrapers on a new tide, swallowed up all the people who couldn't afford to move anywhere else. Have you seen the rent rates lately?
And then John accidentally'd the entire nuclear stockpile of the planet Earth.
