    Summary

    Derek didn't believe in soulmates. Never had, never would. Even upon visions of yellow that were washed out into greens and flowers and shades of his eyes, Derek did not believe in soulmates. Derek saw every version there was. He didn't retain all of them but he saw them and he knew them inside and out. Derek knew him—knew Avery—like a baby's first breath followed by its scream, like the way humans feared the unknown and the known, like nature knew rot and life. Derek knew Avery instinctively and wholly.

    Summary

    The bus is late.

    Avery has been waiting for nineteen minutes, and it's raining, and that one song is stuck in his head and the only reason he's not more annoyed is because there's a little shelter over the bus stop for days like this, so he's not getting wet. Which is nice. Still kind of chilly, though.

    The bus is seventeen minutes late.

    The next one isn't due for another forty-three minutes and he doesn't want to wait that long, but there's no way he's walking the half hour it would take to get back to his dorm in the rain. Waiting will take more time, sure, but it's not worth it to get soaked.

    No, he'll just. Keep waiting.

    "Give it twenty-two more minutes," someone says, sitting down next to him, and Avery startles.

    Summary

    "Sidney," Gaunt hears himself say. "What are you doing out here?"

    Ellwood shrugs, but it's a sharp, mechanical motion, like a puppet being jerked up by its strings. "Couldn't sleep. Needed some air."

    Summary

    Loving Fluixon wasn't a choice anymore. Not loving him wasn't either.

    Saparata choked before entering fits of coughs, knees buckling before slamming him into the sand.

    Blood spattered on the ground, coating the surrounding sand with crimson. Among it lies a single ivory petal.

    This time, Fluixon will be the death of him.

    Summary

    There are many dangerous things about Saparata, but by far the most dangerous is simply how well he knows Fluixon. It would be difficult to not know Flux, at this point, after cycling through what must be a million universes by now. He knows Flux's habits and patterns. He understands the things that Flux doesn't yet know about himself.

    Which means when they spawn into a new world again, whatever uncountable number they’re on, Flux knows he's short on time. Because Saps is a heat-seeking missile, and Flux is his only target. Sooner or later, Saparata will find his way to him.
