    Summary

    No, that was not quite right: not shattering, because that implied a single great crisis. Rather, what happened to human illusions was that they crumbled, they withered away. It was a long and wearisome process, like a toothache reaching far into the soul. But you can pull out a tooth and it will be gone. Illusions, however, even when dead, continue to rot and stink within us. (The Noise of Time, Julian Barnes)

    Aegon V Targaryen, his thwarted dream for a better realm, and the long, wearying process of disillusionment that eventually curdled his dream into an obsession with dragons.

    Summary

    Rachel’s halfway through the term paper she’s been wrestling with for weeks when he materializes out of thin air. He didn’t appear in front of her, but she knows it’s him. It’s always the same feeling when he’s around. Is it butterflies? Warmth? Resignation? She’s not really sure, but at this point, she’d rather deal with him than more of this academic misery.
